Mugen replice grille on ebay..

[johnprocter]

Would this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ACURA...spagenameZWDVW
fit on a Accord Euro 2003 luxury? Wheres the best place to get it installed in Sydney?

LOL could a mod rename thread and fix replice to replica* loool..

That should fit your car. IS Motorracing in Rockdale is a good place to install it.

[johnprocter]

Do you know roughly how much they would charge?

[E-Gene]

Why would you need someone to install it for you? It's very simple to put on.

Are there more than one of these replica grills on ebay? If yes try and get the one for the Euro rather than the TSX. I know that when fitting the Euro R grill to the TSX there is a slight gap where the grill meets the bumper in the centre.

This suggests the TSX and Euro bumper are slightly different around the lower part of the grill. So shop around if you want perfect fitment and try to get one for the JDM Euro.

See how it doesn't line up in the bottom centre part of the grill (TSX below with Euro R grill)?

Yes, it will fit, as your's is 2003 euro. It is quite easy to install it yourself, I did mine myself. Although, you might have to get it painted though, and if it doesn't cost that much different painted & fitted (compared to just painted), then no worries, otherwise you could save some bucks there

hmm but i was searching around i heard theres some radiator cap or something that needs to be removed? seems to complex for me but i'll give it a go when i do order it..

yfin - There aren't any on ebay for euro's there all for tsx cause its american ebay and the aussie ebay doesn't have shit for euro's either and it's a good price too i can just buy the mugen badge and stick it on the front of the grille and it'll look like the real thing :P (kind of)

I've got an 06 and i've fitted the JDM sports/euro R grille and it's colour matched and a perfect fit.IMO dont mess around with that grille on ebay .As yfin said it's not an exact fit.

That's similar to the one I bought from the US. I got it painted at a spray painter in Yennora (who did a great job) and installed it myself. It's pretty straight forward, and yes you do need to remove the top radiator stay, but thats but an aesthetics issue for the engine bay.

I'll give you $50 to install it for me :P How much did they charge for the painting?

Yes, you have to take off the black plastic panel on top of the radiator to fit this, but some people can fit it back in by grinding off the edges. Seriously, it's very easy to install. I think I've seen the instructions somewhere in this forum, about removing the bumpers. the instructions has all the clips location.
