i think that may be the reflection, cuz the grille is part of the bumper and its the same colour as my car
i left the chrome strip on the bonnet as that came stock with the TSX/euro's as u know

Whoa. You took a photograph from...the future.

I'm not a big fan of body kits, but good job, man. Looks menacing, though perhaps it may be a bit cleaner at the same time without those patches just in front of headlights (faux headlight washers?)?

Cheers.

asimo those "patches" arent faux headlight washes... they are infact the headlight washes for his HID. In australia its a regulation that you have to have headlight washes in place if you have HID
