Specilized32 & I installed mesh grills facelift STIVOs weekend.

Its pretty easy to do.

We bought 2 sections of mesh from Autobarn ($30). Specialzed got Black mesh and I got Silver mesh. Bought a glue gun ($17) n some glue sticks ($2) and a set of staight cut tin snips ($16).

Here is the procedure

1.Take off the bumpers (3-5 minute job).

2.Unclip the black inserts in the grills.

3.Mark out the mesh n cut to a size larger than the hole.

4.You will notice that these tabs stick out so will need to cut hole in the mesh to fit em in (you could also grind off the tabs but we didn't).

5.Install the mesh n wrap around the edges.

6.Put daps off glue between the mesh n the bumper.

7.If you have a black car you dont have a prob, but with silver you could see the tabs, so specialized32 used a touch up pen and painted the tabs black.

9.Put the bumper back on.

10.Enjoy your new grills.
