Hi, I remodeled my VY SS grill and remodeled a mates exec Grill the same way. Its just a very slow and careful operation and once done I resprayed it with satin black Bumper spray and they both come up a treat. I will post some better images if you like later tonight.

I super glued some wire to the outside of the grill then I fibreglassed over them so they would not come off, then cut the mesh to size placed it over the pre glued wire and bent the wire bits back to hold the mesh in place.

simple....well not really but in reflection it sounded easy when I thought about it but doing it was fiddly
