I got this EP-200 epoxy putty from Home Depot. It says it's suitable for automotive and various other applications. This stuff is great, it looks like there are two parts to it. Just cut a piece off and knead it and starts to heat up by itself. Hardens in about 20 minutes (I have no patience). It becomes pretty tough after 30 minutes to where you can use a dremel to sand it down.

The mesh that I got with the grill (Klumzee grill) was from custom auto mesh. The weave was vertical, so it didn't match the mesh on the lower bumper. Plus, I think I cut a wee bit too small the first time I tried to mount it. So I got some more mesh from custom auto mesh for ~$20. The weave was horizontal on that one. It also came with what appears to be 16 gauge? solid copper wire. The wires were cut into ~2" pieces. Apparently you are suppose to epoxy those wires to the grill and then bend them over. I didn't know they had this relatively fast drying putty, so I didn't do it the first time and the mesh was a bit wavy. After finding this putty, the wire seems to mount pretty easily. The more mounting points, the less wavy the mesh will be. Just be sure to sand down the area in which you are applying the putty so it sticks properly.

Now finally comes the rear Wilwoods. Wilwood changed their logo so I had to get the logos painted to match the fronts.
