Upper Grill Install Help Please....

Im installing (or trying to) the altezza style upper grill on my 01 civic coupe. I have everything apart and notice that the holes to screw the grill into the black molding dont line up??? It slides onto the bumper nice but how can i attach it to the black piece that bolts to the grill and bumper, this is pissing me off. Is there a trick? Has anyone come across this problem? Please let me know, Thanks, Scott

um, are you talking about the radiator cover? You need to buy a sedan radiator cover if you have a coupe for it to fit.

You don't need the grill anyway. The top will still be held by 2 tabs. (not 4)

For the RS grill and the Altezza grill you need the SEDAN radiator cover.

I have the Altezza grill and I am using the Sedan radiator cover.

This hasn't been covered in a while. I'm letting it stay. Just don't read it if you don't like it.


For the rest of you.....this is what you need........
