Black Grille for 05 civic
http://www.ilovebodykits.com/product...HGCV04TR_.html
does this look like a good grille to replace the one with the honda symbol. I like this one cuz its the whole piece so i know it will fit, anyone know exactly how you get the new one on and is this worth it, i think it looks good on alot of car. my car is silver and i feel like the sides and back of the car look really sporty but the front is hurting a little bit so what do you guys think?

Looks pretty good and decent price too.. I've thought about getting one since some little bastard kid tried to steal the H off my grill and broke the emblem in half.

I would like it, in fact I was considering it, except I think the bumps at the bottom of the grilles make it look extremely cheap. So I didn't get one. Otherwise I would like it.

Yes it will fit a sedan.. I got it for my ES1 if you go to gallery on their website you will see a 04-05 civic sedan with jdm mods on it. And if I am correct 04-05 civics coupes or sedans you can pretty much swap grilles on. 01-03 are a complete different setup then the 04-05's even tho they're are from the same gen.

fogs look great, i have a silver 05 coupe and i was going to do yellow fogs but now i say i get the smoked fogs, i think it would look good with a dark tint down there. so either smoked or clear, opinions?

just remove it with goo gone, from the actual grill. only the chrome part will come off. then re-glue anywhere, preferably center haha. used this:

ha wow ye i see what you did, i kinda like it how it is though, it looks slick all black there, would definitely look cooler if i had a r34 body kit, do you buy body kits online and have them painted? i see you have one, roughly how much was it?

yeah, body kits aren't really the best way to go. lips are only add-ons so if it breaks you just replace the piece. body kits replace whole panels and are never really that durable.
