    Default Mesh in Holes + Foglights?

    In the picture I've uploaded the white circles represent the area of what i want too do, Is there anyway of filling those holes with red / maybe chrome mesh or something? Kinda like bodykits have ?

    And also, In orange, Is there anyway too add foglights too this ? Small cutting or something?

    P.S. It's an Acclaim 94

    Sorry picture works now

    Careful with the mesh, you might get flamed. Yes you can add it, SCA sell it... You'd probably have to pull the bumper off to do a decent job of it though. Unelss you wanted the mounts visible?
    Regarding the foggies, there is a thread on that.. And also a search feature, believe it or not.

    Don't really care about being flamed, As this is MY car And I'll do what i like too it, Anyone who flames me will be ignored. Though critisism and advice is greatly appreciated, theres some thing's I'll not listen too with my vehicle, Like the spoiler, Few VR/VS look good with it, And I like it on mine.

    I tried too look for a thread but i couldn't find anything! I can never do it properly.

    And thanks Stevie! I'll write down what you said incase i decide to do it.

    Why would you get flamed over mesh?
    Mesh comes in handy sometimes to hide the ricer shit like fake intercoolers.
    Although I do believe that anything other than black mesh (like silver) and too much of it will look shit. But thats just my 2c.

    I have used some black mesh on the inside of the main air intake on the front bar. I didn't need to remove the front bar but it was tricky to install. It is attached with plastic stick-on anchors and zip-lock ties.

    Just spray some mesh black, or buy black mesh if you can find it. Genuine VS HSV front bars come from factory with black mesh screwed into the back.

    Makes it look tidier, just paint it black though, don't leave it silver, looks tacky.
