Mr. Bumpstops says the bolts/holes were allready there. He used additional nuts and washers to mount the wire mesh to the bumper. The wire mesh measures 32"x6", rounded the corners and added the U shape molding.

He has an extra piece of just the mesh if anyone wants it.

I agree...wear protection!

Yeah, tell MR. Bumpstops I could sell a million of them (well, at least 130,000).

We can even call it the "Mr. Bumpstops Lower Grill" in his honor!

Next time he does out on one of his scavenger hunts through the desert, (I call 'em trash runs) I know he's gonna pick up anything that resembles wire mesh....

Don't worry, I have a TON of neighbors with satellite dishes...we won't have a mesh shortage for quite a while!

I bet Mr Bumpstops will find a lot of broken C-band satellite dishes out where you are Sindy. I know a few people who had them before the Dish and DirecTV dishes came out.

BTW, that looks GREAT

Very industrious.

Looks good! I think I'm going to have to rope my husband into doing something similar.
