Where to find "Mesh Wire" type front grille

[Turbobrick]

Since U have prior experiences with Splitfire, then I guess U have confidence to go back to them

 

How U enjoy your new toys soon!

 

btw, my cross-drilled brake discs are here.....

[Mondeo]

Frankly, I dun want to mod too much, Europe site dare to modify the engine due to really new tech design. And still under 3yrs free maintenance, dun want to spoil it.

[Mondeo]

Ha...see! My brake discs already 300mm (F) and 280mm®, really dun want to waste it for the cross-drilled one, I pray and wait for yr Mintex pad hah..

[Turbobrick]

U got pretty large discs from Ford

 

My stock was 280mm Front and 295mm rear until the bloody discs warped, got them replaced and upgraded under warranty so front became 302mm and rear remained the same.

 

Now just slapping on x-drilled fronts for show lah, since discs worn out might as well put better looking ones

 

Hopefully Mintex UK can send the Mondy pads over ASAP

What brand? wht abt 4 pot calipers?

[Madarmour]

Sooner or later, the discs will wear out. Then get those grooved ones lor! My discs are already half gone and I'm gonna replace them with TarOx G88s. I'm very kiasu, and I already have those in stock, so that when I really need to change them I don't have to hunt around and make hasty decisions!

[Mondeo]

So, another few months at least right, and dun no whether got the performance discs for this model yet

[Madarmour]

Yup, a few months later, hopefully a year! Dun worry, 1.5 to 2 yrs down the road, sure have disc upgrades already!

Hi guys! I'm new here. Just like to ask, wat did u use to fasten the grille?? glue gun???

[Nilkz]

Hi Mike,

 

just want to check with you, how did you fasten the wire mesh to your grille, did you use the "putty" thing at the back of the grille then using metal hooks (or something like that) to attach the grille, if its not too troublesome, can you post a pic of how you did it, thanks.

[Madarmour]

It actually depends on whether there's any anchor point or support. For my shield, the original grille is just behind the wire mesh. I just clamp it on, no fastening needed.

 

If there's no posterior support, you can fasten the mesh with small cable tie, if there's anchor points or use silicone/glue gun. Do not use any other type of glue/epoxy as it will be difficult to remove cleanly later should you decide to change/remove the grille.

 

I don't have any pics on how I install the grille step by step. Sorry!

[Nilkz]

Thanks Mike,

 

If there are no supports, is it possible to stick the mesh from the back of the front bumper, then silicon/glue gun the mesh around the perimeter of the bumper opening, will it be able to hold...

 

thanks for answering,

 

cheers

[Madarmour]

Yup, you can use a glue gun or silicone to fix the mesh. Make sure you clean the places to be glued on properly - use a bit of turpentine if possible. Do not use thinner as it can melt plastics.
