What can I use to stick the mesh to the bumper?

I've tried about 3 different products...all of them fail

The mesh is metal, the bumper is polyutherane

+1 on the screws, especially for a metal mesh.

Pre drill the holes so you don't fvck your bumper with a screw going the wrong way.

^ Yep.

I'm just about done. Drilling the holes for the grille was alot harder than the mesh. Especially since the bumper was already painted (had to be extra careful).

I'd suggest painting the screws black.
