I bought the mesh from Lowe's. Big sheet that I cut down. So I have plenty to spare for the future. Here's some pics of how I fastened it to the bumper. I use the clips that already on the botton. Just folded the mesh in a "L" shape and pushed the clips in over the mesh. Kind of hard to do but it works fine. Then when you put the screw in to hold the under panel shroud it holds it all in place. You also want to massage the mesh in place for the bumper has a slight curve to it.

As far as the top portion goes I just folded it over the inner lip and punched small holes in the corner and fastened it down wit small zip ties. Plus when you put it all back together the foam behind the bumper hold it in place also.

ZIP TIED HERE

Nice Mod!

You gave me an idea and I hope you don't mind me using it as an option also?

Hey Spohn, how are your RE-11s wearing?

SPOHN · 01-07-2012, 10:13 PM

I feel there doing real good. Haven't took any measurements or anything. They have about 6500 miles on them with three track days. And I don't baby my car when I take it out. I feel I'll get at least 12k out of them. Or at least the rears. I'll do a coin test on them tomorrow.

christian370z · 01-08-2012, 02:32 AM

That's much better than I thought to be honest, especially with a couple track days on them. I feel better now that I can get around 3 years out of the rears at my current yearly miles driven haha. Thanks Spohn, don't worry about doing the coin test.

Your car is very aggressive in the correct use of the word!

Also I took some time to plati-dip my middle section on my front clip. Really adds great contrast to my car. Going to do my door handles and rear section around the exhaust are next. Also I installed removed the OEM platic grill section and installed some mesh. I really like this look also. Can't wait. Comments welcomed.

I like the grill black out look on the 370Z. I have been looking at ways to obtain the look without CF add-ons. You did a great job and the mesh must help get more cool air to your oil cooler and radiator too.
