View Full Version : Chrome grill?
Just wondering if the honda badge would sit on this grill instead of the acura one? Or if you can get this with just the chrome border minus the middle thing where the acura badge is? Looks nicer than the standard AUDM one.
I got the sports grill atm and I think this would break up the blackness at the front of my car.

Don't quote me on this, but to the best of my knowledge the H badge will not fit in there.
Secondly, the chrome part in the middle is a seperate peice (it surrounds the acura badge in a circle and has the two middle "wings" on either side).
So yes, you could have just the border, but then you would still have to have the A badge.

Yeah well, it's too black. Need something to break it up and that's nice and simple. Your fault for posting that anyways on the CL7/CL9 thread... hehe.

:D hahahaha hmm i guess u should go with the standard lux 06 grill ? they look similar
Yeah, had those and went to sports grill coz the 3 chrome strips were too fat. Prefer the pic above coz its a border. Ah well will just leave it I guess.

^ dont u have an 03-05 daz?
Havent seen the 06+ grills closely, but cant u chrome tape the side somehow to complete the border to look similar to the acura? (not sure if there is a chrome-like tape around)
I am sure the "H" wont fit the tsx grille.

I'm sure if you really wanted to get the H badge in there you could, maybe just order a smaller size one and glue it in the middle of the black circle.
It is a nice grill though, the stock AUDM luxury one just looks tacky because it's trying so hard to be a big luxury chrome grill. This is the perfect balance between sporty and luxurious :wave:

it's because it is pre-facelift and probably has more km's on it.

not always, 06 seems to fetch for a premium. i found 2 exact euros i wanted (comparing standard models here)... 05 model 60,000km's, 06 model 93,000km's -- everything else was the same.
