   Anyone else had problems re fitting their grill after meshing? Mine no longer seems to want to sit flush with the bonnet at the bottom edge just near the chevrons... have cut as much mesh away from the clips and screws as possible but still bows out at the bottom. Any ideas??

   u just need to file down the plastic that the screws go into so it accommidates for the mesh thickness

   It does fit into place and the screws tighten up flush to the bonnet but its just the one little section near the bottom of the chevrons... not sure about filing it cause there is hardly any mesh there to restrict it from fitting correctly.
