Default For those who have changed their front mesh (in front of the intercoolers)

I'm curious as to what method was used to attach the metal mesh (I'm going to use a mesh like that used on the Kamei sport grille) to the plastic faceplate that covers the opening.
It appears the original plastic mesh is attached using either epoxy or a plastic-to-plastic melt.

So if anyone has done this, or had it done, how did they attach the metal to the plastic?

Default Plastic welds...

I used a plastic weld epoxy to attach plastic hex nuts to the inside of the grills. I then used zip ties to hold the metal mesh to the hex nuts.
