Economy Lower Grill Protection

Mr Bumpstops made a lower grill for me out of scrap material in the garage.
(old satilite dish wire mesh) He added some rubber striping around the edges for added protection.
Not so much for cosmetics right now, just something there until I can buy a 'proper' lower grill.

With a white background so you can see the wire mesh grill



Without background. Looks as if there is nothing there.



View of mounting nut and washer in the engine compartemnt. Very simple.

Actually, it is protecting the air conditioning condenser!

A hard enough hit would damage both though...

Everyone should have something there for protection!

Did you have to drill new holes or did you use existing ones?
