hi,guys ..I just got the 07/08 tl lower mesh for my 04 Tl
has anyone mod the 07-08 lower mesh to fit the 04-06 model? can anyone teach me?

 

are you talking about the lower mesh in the bumper? i am not sure it will be a direct fit because the bumpers are different

 

yup, I'm talking about the lower mesh in the bumper ... any one can help?

 

The 07/08 lower grills will not fit.

You can try to put it on and make it fit using trial and error...

 

no one can tell me the for sure answer?

 

I just did; they won't fit.

I think you should have asked us this question before you went and bought them.

I can't say I have ever seen someone mod the grill to fit.

They were just not designed for 04-06 bumpers.

Sorry =(

EDIT: I forgot to add, but what's the point of buying (and even trying to install) the 07/08 lower grill, when you don't even have fog lights yet (be it Accords or 07/08).

You didn't tell us if you plan on buying Accord fogs, or 07/08.

 

I have done it before. The ones with the fog lights correct? I needed to dremel a bit but they fit.

 

do u have any pics ? let me see , plz!!!
and what kind the fog lights u bought for the mesh? eBay fog or oem?

 

I saw some one did that before ,just not sure
how to make it fit, u should try it too.

 

Maybe if I see pictures of it I'll try it out haha.

For now, I'm just waiting on my A-Spec lip kit (coming tommorow, installing on Sunday).

Then I'm planning to use 03-05 Accord fogs =)

 

What do I have to do to get them to fit? Do I have to have the fog lights put on before the grill?

 

Well, I'd imagine it would look funny without fogs heheh

If you don't have fog lights yet, don't put on the grill =)

Just use your original grill pieces for now and until you get fogs.

There are 2 ways most people do lower foglights.

1. Accord fogs. Keep original 04-06 grill pieces, trim them to fit the fogs. Cheap and easy way.

2. Buy new 07 bumper. Buy grills. Buy foglights. Put it all on, no need to mod or trim anything, just wire fogs. Expensive. Very expensive.

Having the grill piece without fogs make the grill piece useless, unless you like the look of the grill with a huge hole.

 

lol, I'll try mod it to fit my bumper tomorrow !!!
I saw some one put the accord fog on the 04-06 tl with no aspec front under spoiler , fitment is not that good, cause he missing the under spoiler?

 

Without the a-spec you will have to dremel A LOT forthe accord fogs to be flush because the a spec fills in the gaps that are on the curve and up/down. Will cost ~$100 for supplies

07-08 you will not need a new bumper like I said previously but you will need to dremel the grille a little bit and install of fogs will be easier than to custom fit the accord ones but this is also a pricier route. Will cost $40 for grilles and ~$250 for fogs.

 

brother , so which one's fitment looks better?

 

mine only cost me about $50; i used walli~world lenses; Hella Yella H3 bulbs; and mesh from home depot just to see how it would come out and actually came out pretty badass!!! look at my pics and tell me what yall think? no one i know would of never known unless i told them!

 

LOL, doesn't look anywhere close to OEM.

I gotta give you creds though, for trying out an alternative.

@OP (jenny.lee): Are you getting Accord fogs, or the fogs that came with the 07/08 TL?

 

 

^^^^this isn't how it looks now this was in the middle of the process will you post the other with the black grills and yellow fogs!!! I don't know how^^^^

 

This one?

 

^^^Thanks^^^
