hehe... i've done the same, looks tough on a black one

thinking, i'm either gunna dremel away the guts, and attach the black mesh... the honey comb sticks out too far

or i'm just going to clean it up and give it a blast of matt black. mine's very faded, and the reason why i bothered.

BTW, mesh @ autobarn is $15 ATM

how did this guy do it?? looks A+
did he shave away the tabs?? or is the grill infront of the tabs?

I suggest spraying with a few coats of clear once moulded as i have found they start to rust/brown after about 6 months from weather.

that to me looks like a front bar that has a grille inbuilt, instead of separate

that is a new bumper peice it looks different the white thing in the right hand bottom corner isnt on mine, or any i have seen before.
unless its a stick on reflector, but the overall shape is different too.

i always think the USDM fits front bumper sticks out a tad more than the AUDM ones >=/, with that being said i'm reasonably sure he just cut off the tabs, filed it down and touched it up with paint

the 07 Jazz's in america like more like the 03 ones over here dont you think? like with the bottom grill :/

anyway it looks like hes just shoved the mesh in through the front.
