My front grill for my r33 series 1 has arrived today, its made from fibreglass .....

my question is....

how do i stick mesh in the back of the fibreglass grill??, whats a good strong bonding fibreglass glue??

Whats the best approach in respraying fibreglass products, primer is a must apparently??

Is there a trick installing this front grill to the car??....i dont see clips or mountings for this grill

i would try and screw it or bend it so it "clips" on, failing that any sort of hot glue gun will work,

also consider mounting the mesh to the car, on the radiator support bracket so it sits just behind the grill. this is by far the easiest way as you can screw/rivet whatever you want. if you get it sitting close enough it will look great.

there is always cable ties too

I did this just a few days ago. I used a hot glue gun which worked well, but I was slightly concerned that the engine bay heat could melt the glue. I also used some 15 minute Araldite to seal the deal. Liquid nails would work well also.

Either way, just using hot glue would probably be sufficient but I like to over engineer things. :P
