Hey man, the face lifted grill is a single piece, you cant modify it to make it like the mesh grill unfortunatly. The only way is to buy a facelifted mesh grill.
True? I know it can be done with some cars like the ej8 and such.
All i know is with my 99 ek1 hatch, you cant actually unscrew the centre piece and replace it with mesh unfortunatly. Its a solid piece.
There was a thread about this topic, let me see if i can find it.
yeh, u don't need to take it out..
saw the middle off like how its done with pre-facelifted models.
refer to this thread:

Working out how your going to stick the mesh onto the grill is the hard part.
im 100000000% sure i didnt saw anything off. There were some screws that screwed it to the grille. I just undid the screws.
what happened to the black part where the honda badge is?
did you just put mesh right over it?
yeh you can unscrew the ej8 and facelifted ones but the pre-facelifted ones you can, but still wouldn't you need to saw the part where the honda badge is or do you guys just mesh right over it?

ahah thats a photo of my grille! i cut mine out with a pocket knife.
ok so to confirm..its possible to do the facelift models, but involves sawing out the middle part?
nah i don't think u need to saw anything for the facelifted grills.
just unscrewing it off
then meshing it
