Help this noob!

Ive been looking for a couple hours now and it appears everybody else knows something i don't.

Where do you get an ATLP grill? It appears heeltoe is no longer making them. Did I miss the train or is there still some way for me to grab one? I don't want an H in the grill, I want the A.

Any insight from the more experienced? Thanks in advance, guys.

No longer making them. You'll need to find one second hand.

And from what I've heard, it's like 80% disappointed, 20% pleased with the product anyway.

Or custom work yourself.

Good Luck!

Yea that's kind of what I figured as well. I'm sure they'll charge a premium for them too since they aren't in production anymore.

Haha, thanks for softening the blow telling me that they were hit and miss anyway.

I guess I'll have to go another direction or see if I can get a replica euro grill to mod.

Thanks, I appreciate the intel.

Search around the forums a bit and you'll see folks that got the ATLP grille and had to do a bunch of tweaking to get it to work. I *think* even Marcus (HeelToe) admitted that they weren't really up to snuff.

Also, you can find a couple people who have done the Euro-Honda grill with Acura emblem.

There is some custom work to be done there as well, but it can be done.

No problem. Just don't tell anyone I've been helpful - I've got a reputation to uphold.

Oh, and welcome!

I swear I seen a white one on eBay a couple weeks ago. not sure that's the color you want but I would really consider getting a different grille or modifying 1 yourself. The fitment was very disappointing

Yea I think I'm actually planning to go with the EDM accord grill now and just do a little bondo and sanding work on the center piece to get the Acura A on there instead. These can be had cheap on ebay apparently.
