Question Installing Mesh on Nismo w/o removing possible?

I'm about to order the mesh inserts for the nismo bumper, but my bumper is already installed without it. Does anyone know a way to install the mesh without having to remove the bumper? If so, please provide detailed instructions.

no. to do it correctly you have to remove the bumper. you coud remove the undertray and try to get access behind the bumper from underneath but it'll be tight.

Remove the bumper to do it right... It only takes 15 - 20 mins.

Just remove it and get it done right.

If you going to drill the holes and put screws in you GOT to remove the bumper. There is just not enough room behind it to get the drill in there.

yes. good stuff. i have the same mesh. just make sure it's very secure or it will come loose and the mesh will bend in the wind and look like crap. (like mine) i need to adjust it.

the shop did it. i'm assuming they used self tapping screws. hopefully. there were specific spots around the vents of the kuruma where the surface was extened so you could put screws in.

Ahhhhh It's Kuruma

BIG vent. You can see all the flaws in it.

Nismo is not that revealing.
