   Wot would you recommend as the best substance to affix the mesh onto the upper grille?
   
   Don't want to use superglue as it may react with the plastic.

    i find silicon doesn't so very well when it comes to cars. it just doesn't stick properly unless the area is keyed alot first i find.
    
    gripfill, no more nails or just fibreglass resin is the answer for most fixings apart from the trusty ol zip tie.
    
    the top grill is only small so i guess silicon would do the trick, but grip fill is cheap as chips anyhoo.
