Custom TSX CU2 2g grille carbon fiber

Category: Exterior - Body Parts
Price: $400
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): TSX 2G
Location (State/Prov/Terr): RI
Item Condition: Used

Custom made carbon fiber TSX 2g grille

Started off as a 2009 Accord Euro grille, then all the slats were cut, filled in and wrapped with real carbon fiber and then clearcoated.
Plastic diamond mesh was glued from behind

The H section can be glued on or not if you want to put an Acura logo on there.

Asking $400 shipped. which is a loss to me considering what went into it.

I'll get better pics, All I had handy was the cell phone.

If anyone wants the grille with a floating A emblem instead of the H, I think you can purchase one from our vendor C-mod. They have a floating A piece for their mesh TSX grille

I'm going to throw it up on ebay and see if I can get it sold

I'll probably lose money but oh well, I did it for the fun of it.
I'll be putting my 2011 nose back on so I have no use for it

It was built on an oem CU2 Euro Accord grille, so the fitment is 100% perfect, no gaps anywhere

Just some updated info

You can take your pick from the Honda floating cf pod or the floating Acura pod that I just acquired. or both for an extra $25

$400 + shipping or $250 + oem acura grille in great shape.

May seem expensive but here is how much it cost me to make:

Oem honda accord euro cu2 grille from Germany $225
Cutting/modding/filling in/Cf work $175
Acura pod/emblem $35
thick plastic diamond mesh $40

Pricey, but fit is perfect, I would have kept it but I'm putting the 2011 nose back on my car. So I'm losing some cash

Only thing is on a light car, you would have to black out the radiator support bar with paint or stick on vinyl as it shows through the grille.

Different options
The bars would need to be screwed on or glued on

kost, if you are willing to take the time, could you take a pic of it on your car with the bars and emblems on ? I think thatll entice buyers!

To Apinw

This is the best I can get it without cutting or modding the mesh at all

the top bar fit perfect, the bottom bar is off a bit
i can try to mod it but i want to make sure you're ok with the cutout in the lower bar before i go messing with it
