Default What to use to hold the grille for front bumper kit

If you want to add a mesh grille to your front bumper kit what are you guys using?
I mean are you using a putty, hot glue gun, etc.??

You don't want to use hot glue.

Fold the mesh over the opening from behind so that it is laying on the underside of the bumper. Find you an adhesive that is made for plastics. That's how I have seen body kits done. I don't know if hot glue would hold to the underside of the bumper, so that is why I speak against using it.
