Apex-i N1 catback exhaust
WingsWest G5 series body kit (which i noticed some peeps already have, lol )

Dude, get the JDM style! Check in the parts section of the site under the catagory 'other'...You will need to get a sedan rad cover to get it to fit perfect. Otherwise it'll look good with the hood closed but crap when it's open. The rad covers are cheap.

Anyway, there's always Grillcraft but the JDM style is sweeeeeeeeet!

hope this helps!

Get the Altezza style front grill. You can get it at Tornactive.com. And you can get 5% off because you're a member of 7thGenCivic.com. The discount code is 7thgen5off (I beleive). Or better yet, talk to Tornactive (that's his name... he's a member of this site).

And you need the sedan radiator cover ('grill cover' to dealerships). Got the cover for $18. Others got theirs for $16.

Anyway, I have the Altezza grill, but I didn't install it yet. I still need to paint the lip.

No problem...

Oh, and you can also check Ebay for the RS grill or the Altezza style grill.

Azure thanks man.
that is the exact style of grille i was looking for... plus i can get it painted when i take the body kit to the dealer and have them paint it

just wondering where i might be able to order the sedan radiator cover from since i didnt see it on the tornactive site..


btw that discount code was correct...

I wouldn't worry too much about what other people on the site have, considering you probably won't ever see their cars driving around your town...

Will do. Hopefully by late next week, it'll be painted and installed.

Go to your dealership and ask for a grill cover. That's how the dealership recognizes it. If you say 'radiator cover', they'll have no clue what you're talking about. Well, at least that's what happened to me.

There's a picture here of what the radiator cover (grill cover) looks like. Scroll down to the bottom of the thread for the pic.

ok, who knows this. i got a sedan, so, can i get a jdm, or altezza grill and bolt it right on without any other mod?

thanks.

yeah, that's right. the aftermarket grills out there are made for sedans (at least the altezza and the rs), so your radiator cover will fit with it fine. no mods/changes needed....
