This secures the bottom of the grill. The top will be attached when you reinstall the bumper. When it makes contact with the mounting points it will hold it in place. This is pretty much it........
It should all look like this.....

How will would bondo attach a metal bolt to the plastic grill? I can attach a metal bolt to the back of the grill, bend then metal sheet around and place a washer and a nut to hold it...you think that would work?

Takinig the "A" out of the car does not make it a misrepresentation of a $35k car... The most important thing that represents HIS car is making it HIS OWN... Not everyone elses...
When you are out of High School, you might begin to understand that name brands and merchandising "status symbols' are NOT what life is about...

Love your work!! I envisioned the same thing for my grill b4 I even got my car. Minus the carbon fiber tho. Was planning to go with a flat char coal kinda black where u have the carbon fiber, and do the same gun metal grey on the outside chrome border. Love the carbon fiber idea tho, especially since it complements the look around the license plate area on the trunk. love the look tho..nice work ...inspirational!

I ran across this, I just started modding my bumper yesterday... I am doing something close to this but going to keep the "stock look" Just cutting out the nasty plastic honey combs, and replacing it with diamond mesh. As well as blacking out all the Chrome minus the chrome strips by the fogs and the Acura emblem. Here are some shots of today’s progress.
