Updated pics: rebadged, new grill, visor....

Just got my car rebadged and installed the JDM grill which still has a small gap. Tell me what you guys think.

Where did you get your stuff from? BTW do they sell the grill by itself without any of the badges?

I think the horizontal rectangle blocking the license plate leads to an optical illusion of crookedness.

Nice car! I really like the wheels.

nice mods !

1) How are you gonna get rid of the gap ?
2) Do you know if the H emblem on that grill can be replaced by A emblem on stock grill ?
3) Does the JDM grill come in CG ?

Hey Cloud, nice car. Are you from Toronto? The street & house look so familiar! If you are, you have a twins! WingWing also did his euroR conversion with dc5 typeR rim and oem bodykit & wing. The only different is he has the red Honda badge on the rear and the ugly yellow fog light bulb!

Don't like Honda???? You drive one if you own the TSX!

Cloud-- Nice ride, it's looks really good, you should swap body kits for the Euro-R as well though! You planning to do changes on the interior as well?

thanks for your comments guys!
blackjackman - I am just gona leave the gap, it's small enough not to notice it. the Honda emblem for the jdm grill is bigger than the Acura emblem from the stock, and also stick, I don't think it will fit. Check with www.polepositionproducts.com for the CG colour, not sure if they have the colour.
cmf - this is it for me, no interior mods or bodykit swap, maybe a small drop like 1"
ianS - yes I'm from T.O. I'll be looking around for my twin everytime I go out now

they're 17s, the Euro-R wheels are almost identical and are also 17s so I think the sizing is fine. The wheel gap possibly makes the wheels look smaller.

Very nice..I've always liked the white. Admittedly, I never liked the white rims BUT, I do like the them on your car..however, I don't like the "r" badge. Would look cleaner w/o it. It's your ride and I've always said that no one has to like it but you. Nice representation

Looks like the way a Honda is meant to look but then again I'm biased
But I don't like the EuroR badge. A bit ricy IMO although it's still better than putting a TypeR badge on it.

In the other post he said he liked all the Acura badges on it cause of the chrome matching the door handles. In this situation, he is talking about JDM badging. You should read carefully before calling someone out. He is just giving his opinion, probably like you do in some of your posts.
