  • Turbo front bumper - fitting aluminium mesh

    As per the title really, I'm looking to fit aluminium mesh to the duct in the front bumper and just wondered if anyone here has already gone down that route and if so, how to attach the mesh to the bumper in a neat and tidy fashion.

    The OE stuff was just sikaflexed in place.

      Thanks for the confirmation. Now just got to make up a template for the shape. Did the original ones fit inside the aperture, or round the outside? I was assuming round the outside so any fixings were not visible...

        The big one in the middle? It fitted on the end (radiator side) of the apperture overlapping. It was simply bent into the back of the bumper and sikaflexed in place. Looks a mess from the inside but outside looks fine. A nightmare to get out though!
