Another Color Matched Grille

Had a hook up from a buddy that owns a body shop to color match my grille. I still haven't fixed the gap yet since Im lazy in taking off the bumper off but will have to since there is condensation in one of my fog lights. But anyways, enjoy

Looks great

It's getting too wet and cold up here in Canada to do any exterior mods at the moment.

Thanks! Merry Christmas.

Well I have to redo one of my headlights to seal it properly since there is some condensation (on the first headlight that I did). Ordered some Nissan OEM butyl sealant. Also at the same time, going to take apart the fog light because of condensation and cleaning it up because when I first installed HID fogs when I first got them two years ago, one of em kinda burned the plastic so there bits of plastic inside the housing.

As for mod wise, spacers for the front and rear (rear first). Im looking into either the Heeltoe front lip or whenever the RonJon splitters come out (if they fit the 09) and new tires soon (like within the next month or two), tires are essentially at the wear bar. Going wider. Thinking of going from 225/45/18 to 235/40/18. And also getter better ones from Falken Ziex 912 to Falken 452s. Swap out my Nokya reverse to Hi-power Reverse. and overall try to restore my car's paint with a good detail

That looks really good. I have been wanting to do the front on my pearl white, which I regret buying it in this color.

Dude, that's a great job blackening your grill. I'm thinking about doing mine also as my Tsx is black also and I already have black rims with a chrome lip. I'm thinking about blackening the sides and bottom of the grill though and leaving the top bar with the Acura symbol chrome to change it up.
