woo finally i got the freaking mesh on. took 4ever man. cuz i did two lazyers of mesh. idk y i did but yeah. makes it stronger i guess and u cant see the mistakes when there are 2 layers and it looks decieving.!! to the eye. got all the stuff at menards. 3.69$ for this sweet mod and painted the oem grille silver to kinda hide it? dont know if it really worked

here are the pics.. late at night ill take some more laterz. im so glad i did this. and my freaking dad (u all know who.. that u guys wish he was ur dad) yelled at me for taking off the grille. i was wtf man. and 2 of the bolts were rusted and thats y it took 4ever. freaking WIsconsin weather rusts everything. and all i need now is a A badge. next mod. debadge the back!! .woo hoo

 

Don't be too hard on him..As a dad myself, I could see myself getting that way sometime. Probably just a kneejerk reaction at the moment.

 

hes like. u dont know wtf ur doing.. dont try to be a mechanic. u ******* and im like. man i dont need this stuff right now. i just finished my mesh grille and he ruins it for me.!.

 

Honestly? The mesh grills don't do a bunch for me. Maybe If I saw one in person.

I do like your headlights though, how'd you do them? That's my next step.

 

The night pics and the flash from the camera make it look wierd, its one of those things we would have to see in person probably.

 

just take that bullshit off.

 

those are stock headlights haha

yeah, i dont dig the mesh either, but hey, if you like it, right on

 

somehow i think i prefer a wider opening in the mesh



screen mesh is generally crappy lookin. especially without the rest of your trim showing and a lack of acura logo.

 

me no like.

 

wow man that really looks nice nice job on your first try i messed up a couple times dooing mine but i go the hang of it after a cpl trys

 

Looks nice but too fine of a screen for me. I don't know about Menards (lol good stuff Menard) but do you have a Home Depot around? Gutter guard works well and has a nice neutral size screen. Get the flat stuff if you do, not the cheap roll stuff. As far as the headlights, didn't he clear the parking corners? Or am I just not up on my first gen cosmetics?

EDIT: Tell your dad don't be a crazy guy, the grille can in no way hurt the car/get you pulled over/etc. Also, please put that A back on

 

doesnt look good. maybe its the pictures, but just from knowing what most mesh looks like, its shit.

 

Those are stock headlights man

 

...this is true, haha.

They look a lot different and better than mine. Must be the lighting?

*Hides in corner for the rest of natural AZine existence*

 

yeah um . well my corners are clear. ive seen others with orange. idk . mine came like that from the dealer. and gosh all u haters. haha j/k. well to me it looks really good and different. must be the pic cuz in person it looks good to me and yes the mesh is kinda too fine thats why i double layered it. it looks nice . i did it cuz its just different from the stockness. and forgive me for my wtf (what the fug) comments about my dad)

and yes i so need an A badge. n e one here got one for cheap?

new pics...

 

 

Yeah, definately was the pic that threw me off.

 

all first gen CL headlights from all years from every dealer came clear.

 

I think the grille looks good. Especially in the daylight. Definetely needs an Acura logo though.

 

Looking back, you should definately get chrome wheels if you get rims anytime. That would set it off.

 

So I guess I'm not up on first gen cosmetics...*clicks back on second gen link*

 

Grill does look beautiful, I have a black mesh version going on my CF hood 97 grill. Here's where to get the "A"

Click here for A

Piece number 2

 

You need to order $30 in stuff for them to ship though, so if you can think of any other parts that you need to replace, I'd get them at the same time. I've given that company probably 2 grand for stock pieces

 

yeah . umm black i was thinking about that. they had black aluminum mesh also.

n e one gots pics of that?

man. thats expensive for just an emblem. and ebay its also so much. ill just find a junkyard one day. if i can. and pull of an A.

i told all yah it lookd good. lol.

 

shhot. sry for the double post i couldnt edit. so what would u guys like more my silver mesh or make it black?

n e one seen pics of a primrose with a black mesh? like to see pics?!

 

Take the A off your old grill..
and @what the fug.

and it's not that different, its been done before, look around.

if you're going to keep it, keep it silver.

.02

 

Keep it silver fo sho.

 

yah ill keep it silver. and u should know that the A stock emblem has the

-----A----- thing so i cant just take it off and put it on.. no work..

i might take it off. cuz some peeps dont like it.. kinda ghettoish..

and turn the back into silver and put back the oem grille. or i might paint ACURA on the silver mesh. with black spray paint. ill photoshop it first. and see what itll look like

 

man just use the grille the way it came.

your attracting negative attention to your car.

shits wack, we are telling you to take it off for your own good.

its a Acura, not a Honda

 

use black mesh. itwill look alot better. the kind of mesh you are using looks kinda cheap and weak (flimsy).

 

umm i never said it was a honda? okay. well its all good

and heres what i wanna do... and maybe ill do the inverse. with black mesh and white/ or silver letterings?

ill see..

 

...I like that suprisingly.

I dunno if I'd like just the symbol more though.

 

take my advice.

your wasting your time (with the grille).

sorry if your offended.

 

no offense taken just ur opinion. well im bored ..haha just trying stuff out. and well i like it. so yeah.. and i just want it to be different from oem. so yeah. mesh wont go off probably.!

 

imo, not my taste...

 

 

It's original, but you need to figure out a color scheme b4 your try that

 

ok guys... too much chrome for me. looked at it for a long time. and well. too much RICE..so its going back. mwhaha. i think im gonna paint the chrome trim black and leave the center chrome.. or leave all the chrome and paint the back silver.
idk..but all the mesh is gone!

 

OEM grills ftw

 

LOL some people are just jerks when it comes to giving their opinion. Job looks well done, but its not my cup of tea either.
