silver mesh in front bumper area...

Ive seen some cars (camaros) with a silver mesh in the two holes that show ones you remove the ugly plastic grille. any one knowhow i would go about doing it?? and where could i buy the mesh at? it seems to me that the front bumper might need to come off but im not sure.

I bought my mesh from McMaster-Carr...it's the same size as the mesh on the brake cooling ducts of the C5 Z06...I don't remember it being very expensive at all...
