    Sweet. Of course I left my bumper vinyl at my house in Hilton Head, otherwise I could have put that on too. What time is he going to drop by? I have class until 3:15 and I do not have any mesh yet.

    It was the Grillcraft grill I already had (it sat flush with the front of the grill opening), see pic #1. I epoxied the bolts on and bolted it straight to the grill shell.

    How thick/ strong is the mesh you used? I'm concerned if it's too thin, it could be damaged easily.
