Its up to you man.
I reckon it'd look nice. Something different. I wanted to do it to mine, but the cost of painting it is the same as a new grill. Unless you've got some 'connections'

i like sports grill with no euroR badge. less badge, the better imo.
here's mine.

Do what Eurodude did to his grille. He got vinyl and wrapped it over the chrome. Then you can test it out and see how it looks prior to painting it?
But maybe check how much the vinyl is first :p
O BTW, if u want to colour code the "H" badge to black/graphite, why not just vinyl wrap the chrome, then take the H badge off. You will have the black plastic which will have the outline of the "H". Then you can simulate the look without having to actually paint the badge or the chrome.

I used dark grey carbon fibre vinyl, but black would look better imo. Its not hard to apply, and very easy to remove.
U can get it on ebay for around $15 plus shipping

will it look tacky ? though hahaha
EuroDude

Vinyl Wrap? No it wont look tacky if you do it properly. Vinyl looks just as good, if not better than Paint.
All you need is less than a square meter of Glossy Black Self-Adhesive Vinyl Wrap.

IMO opinion go the Euro R or Sports Grille. I think both look too plain with just the H in the middle so if you don't want to go Euro R (cos it's not, but really who cares if you like it that's what matters) then you could always modify a badge and just have "Euro". That could look cool and be a bit unique.
Cheers

Wander what the stock grill would look like if you simply removed the chrome parts from the grill :p
Probably end up with holes and clips all over it lol
the 06 mugen style grill is better IMO.
quit spamming and get your bodykit installed. :p

The front end looks much more sinister and tough looking without the chrome, imo. We seem to be a little spoilt for choice when it comes to bodykits.

^ true especially on a black euro... looks too 'classy' lol

Although this is the best stock grill Ive seen on an Accord or a Euro. I reckon it looks too "grandpa".
Changing it to the sports grill makes it look sporty and young, if you know what I mean.... The euroR badge makes it "look" fast ;)

nah that mugen grille makes it look like a standard toyota camry or some'n
i don't mind what felix did to his grille. the only thing is, because it looks matte black (in the photo anyway) it makes it look sort of cheap and tacky, kinda like those door handles on older model cars...
i reckon if you went glossier, like gloss black, it'd make it so much better, pimpin' actually, cause it's what i wanna do to mine..
felix, is yours an luxury? where's the foggies brotha?
