The most you can do with a 99-01 OEM grille is mesh it, or replace it with a Mugen/replica or a JDM Saber/Inspire grille.

There are different ways to mesh your grill if you decide to go that route, as well as varying levels of custom work to do. Here's mine, theres a lot of bondo and careful cutting involved if you go this way, and you can't mess up There are easier ways where you just put mesh between the outside chrome trim and the black trim, but obviously I'm biased and think removing the plastic mesh and "wing" area looks the cleanest
