Order the Sports Grille with the part listed above with the corresponding colour that matches your car, that's all you need. The Grille is a direct fit to our TSX.

Lings is expensive for some parts and cheap on others.

I bought the grille from Japan, the supplier sent via EMS (Expedited Mail Service) for $400, quite a bit cheaper, have to deal with Japanese supplier and took 2 weeks to get it by mail. Give it a try with this link. http://search.borderless.rakuten.com...ccord+cu2&l=en

This is your part link: http://en.item.rakuten.com/chuwa-parts/hocu2015-3/ Need to figure out the right colour code yourself.

Speedstar in Toronto sells it too. However, if they don't have your color in stock, it can take 4 to 6 weeks to get them as they order their parts from Japan and use ocean freight to save cost.

I loved my Honda Sports Grille, even the folks at the dealership thinks it make the car looks more aggressive. Having said that, if you look at DerwoodEE paint matched grille in CBP, it looks terrific.

Looks interesting and definitely an upgrade on the darker colors. I just wonder how it would look with Vortex Blue. Maybe not good, since it's not listed as one of the available color combinations.

Unfortunately, you are correct (Vortex Blue-paint code B553P) is not one of the available colour combination.

They offer the Royal Blue Pearl B536P on the 2010 TL and RDX in North America.
