    I've seen that mesh at home depot. My friend was gonna get me to weld it to his grill guard. That stuff is pretty thin and it'll dent easily if its the same stuff i'm thinking of ?

    I think its pretty stiff. I dont think it would be too bad. just cut it and somehow mount it.

    I don't know about Jb weld bond but in my experience gorilla glue is extremely strong but also extrmely messy I'm not sure if that would be good for a thin wire mesh but I could be wrong

    If you figure a way to do it I think it would look really good IMHO
