Ok here are the pictures from the test fit the the grill has almost no gap between it and the bumber. There is however a large gap between the the top bar and the hood. I have emailed them on this and I am pretty sure they are going to make some changes. Overall though I am very happy wil the way that it looks.
And now what you all have been waiting for.

they are redesigning the top of the grill so it shold fit better will post somepics when i get the grill. also they said they would like to do eyelids but dont have the money to buy the headlights so if anyone has an extra pair of headlights you will get them back when they are done but they need to borrow a set.

Just received this from the company about the grill.
"The grill will be ready in several days, we will then ship it to you for test fit. This grill has already been test fitted on a CL7 here in Hong Kong and it was perfect. Now, we just want to confirm it with the US model. If the fitment is good, we will start production. The grills will be ready to be ordered right after New Year. Please tell the others that wait for another two weeks, this should be the last wait before everything is ready.
Thank you.

I should atleast have my grill for test fitting before Christmas. That way everyone can buy there TSX a welcome to 2005 present then.

Here is a picture I just received from them of the grill painted.
I also got a tracking number for the package and the grill arrived in the US at Kennedy airport this morning at 1:16am. I should have the grill by Wednesday and then have it installed by Friday night at the latest. I will then take pictures of the car for them to post on there site and orders should be accepted soon after that within a week or so.

They would really like to do a set of eyelids for it but the only reason they had a cl7 to test the grill on was because there was a cl7 getting work done at the shop that made the grill and they used it with out telling the guy. So they do not have a cl7 to design the eyelids off of right now they will keep looking for one in hong kong to use though. They said they would let me know if they found one. Also if anyone has a set of headlights that you could ship to them then they could also do it.

The grill will be $140 not painted and shipped, and $60 extra to have it painted. The first one they sent me the paint matched really well, so I think it is an awesome deal for Grill, Painting, and Shipped for $200.
