color matched lower grill

finally had some time to do this. i was going to order the paint and do this myself until i stopped by a local shop who offered to paint both the top and lower grill pieces for $50 with assurance on any fading or and chips. thought this was an awesome price so went this route. what recession? i call this a buyers market lol

I think it looks good on any color TSX, because I intensely dislike fake plastic chrome grilles.

The grill looks good, kdubz. I had this done on my CGP two years ago and the paint's holding up fairly well. I like it... still OEM looking but less gaudy plastic chrome.
