Still thinking if I'm going to paint it body color or leave it black.

Mesh in the middle looks wack. If you were to do something, Just cut it open.

As for mine, I would live the Mugen badge on it and leave as is.

sticks out to me too - think it would look better painted body color though. the middle piece doesn't do the grill justice - looks like something is missing....almost incomplete.

i can respect the amount of work that has gone into this car with the swap but aesthetically im just not feeling any of it. the wheels look spray painted. id drop some money on maybe some Type-S wheels and a drop and i think ud have a really clean car. on the grill, i think its a damn good knockoff for a 100 if u paint it.

They are... I didn't do a good job at all and my buddy is repainting them for me VERY soon. I just got brand new tires, so I'm not planning on getting wheels any time soon. Plus, I'm a college student not working that much so I don't have much to be throwing around.
