Hi all, hoping a Euro 8th gen fan may be able to provide some info on the variation to the front end (grille and fender/spoiler (not sure if the best term for this in Australia)) that seemed to change at some point for MY11 models.
From the research I have done there does not seem to be a clear distinction of when this change happened. I have found MY11 models that have the older style grille and spoiler and the newer style. Does not seem to be due to the luxury or navi models because I see the same with them.
The reason I am curious is that I want to order some front grille replacement parts for my car (2012) from nengun but I cannot be sure of the part because the numbers are the same even for 7th gen it seems?? http://www.nengun.com/honda/oem-parts-accord

Anyone who can shed some light? Would be most appreciated, even to just satisfy my curiosity.
Thanks

The Euro received a very minor facelift in the middle of 2011,which included the newer grille.

So pre facelift was from mid 2008 to mid 2011.

Post facelift mid 2011 to mid 2015.

Hope that helps you.
