We did almost what Col says but we cut tabs into it as getting the mesh to lay flat on the back of the lip is almost impossible. With the edges of the mesh being very sharp too you'll find it very ermmm frustrating and painful no doubt.

Get an 'almost' shape +1" then cut tabs into it bend these and use PU Adhesive (Sikaflex, tigerflex, Texflex) to secure. We put our black mesh behind the MK Grille... enhancing the MK Grille.

I just PU'd some small wood blocks about half inch by 1 inch into the inside of the nose around the opening and then just fixed the black mesh by screwing into them, simple & removable if required.
