95841, Best grilles and how to install
Posted by MattitudeV1, Jul-25-06 03:26 AM
I have a Stillen front bumper and plan to install grilles on it. I will have to buy a grille sheet and cut it, as the grillcraft kit does not properly fit.
What is the best brand sheet of grilles to buy and where can I buy it?
Also, what is the best way to install grilles without drilling holes into the bumper?

I've been told that with fiberglass liquid nails can be used or a rubery composite of some sort???, and for urethane I've seen some people use tacks to hold on grills. I still haven't found the best way, but nor have I looked. I bought my car with a fiberglass body kit installed on it... the grills were held on with bondo - I wouldn't suggest that though, they fell off a year after I bought it.

I used a hot glue gun and my grill won't move. It seems to be holding really excelently... but only time will tell. And yes... it is the cheapest method if you still live with your parents - all moms have a hot glue gun. I'll let you guys know how it holds up in the long run though. Thanks for the suggestion on that one.

Someone on this board has an avatar that says, "I'm sellin' everybody GRILLZ." Maybe he knows something. I mean, he's got a sense of humor, but maybe he knows something about grillz. :shrug
