When I changed out my grills to aluminum mesh, I actually removed the front bumper cover to do it. This made the install much easier. All I did was take out the stock grills, lay them out on the sheet of mesh, trace them out (about an inch or so larger than the stock grills), and cut the mesh. Then I cut some slits in the mesh to fit over the little tabs that held the stock grills on, fitted the mesh over them, and bent the excess material over the edges. It was fairly simple, and turned out looking really professional!
Does that help?
