Nope, but there are no interference issues and I trimmed them close so. The seal around the radiator openings is fine.

It's been track tested and no issues were found... no airflow restrictions...

Where did you get your mesh? Is it stainless?

I can't see any zip ties from the front. What did you tie the mesh to?

I ziptied it to the louver slats on the oem plastic grills.

I bought the stainless steel from Mcmaster-Carr.

I purchased my mesh from http://www.customcargrills.com/products.asp?id=1. I was very happy with their products. It looked great.

I had it custom cut at my body shop and installed with the GT2 front end. Here is a picture.
