new grill on... nothing special

slapped on the new grill...
perfect fitment, no gap at all. and i don't even need that jdm radiator plate...
suprised that many suggested that it is mandatory to remove the bumper, but i somehow swapped it out without removing the bumper.

enjoy...

The fitment looks great, looks like JDM and OEM bumpers are the exact same size now. I really dislike how they changed from the honeycome from the previous model year though.

Man this is some paradox . . . I want to put a grill like that on my 06 also . . . but at the same time I don't want to lose the "A" . . . I dunno how to resolve this . . .

That looks perfect!!! 1000x's better than the stock 06 grill(which I am not fond of in the first place)

If I were to purchase an 06 this would ABSOLUTELY have to be my first mod

thanks for the comments guys.
yes, i ordered it from boomtoyplus... $230 USD shipped...
wait time was almost two months...

i actually ordered the grill a week after i got the car, but and it arrived few weeks ago...
the fitment was simply perfect... just becareful while you are prying out the top clips though
they crack very easily... i went to acura to buy some replcaement clip, and the sales person couldn't even tell i had a H emblem on instead of an A...

Love the look of the grill. Did you paint the grill or did it come painted?

I really like the look of that grille, but like some others have said, I don't want to lose the "A." I also wouldn't want to have to change the rest of the emblems and stuff to match the H up front. Very nice piece though.

Is it possible to remove the Honda emblem from the grill and replace it with the Acura emblem? Does it just screw in?

the "H" is a different size, you'd have to look at all the acura models and see if possibly any matched up.

Looks grerat. I've been thinknig of purchasing a grill from Boomplustoys and they have them available already painted. Did you get it painted from them? And if you did does it match perfectly? Any problems with that?
