Thumbs up Did the sedan to coupe grill conversion

Well I just finished replacing my sedan's grill with one from a coupe looks pretty good. Only think that bothered me was the condition of the coupe grill when I got it. Bought it off of ebay and was described as like new. This thing looked like it was pulled off the car and thrown in a box, complete with road tar and splattered bugs on it, and oh yea, a cobweb behind the grill. Oh well, cleaned it up and it looks fine, but who sends things in that kind of condition. Anyway, im pleased with the result, the sedan looks a whole lot better with the grill of the coupe.

Yup, coupe grill on a sedan is sweet. I've confused other 7thGen members 'cause they look for a sedan grill. hehe. It makes the front more 'sporty'. They should've had that grill on from the factory.

how did it used to look before the conversion? I think your ride looks good like that though.

Honda makes it that way because it's a family sedan, not really for racy look.

Your car looks very sporty with the coupe grill.

Does the coupe grill fit the sedan without any modifications?

If so, where can I get a coupe grill?

that looks sweet. I am thinking of getting a hybrid grill for my coupe, but they don't have the hybrid in red so I guess I would have to get it painted myself.

Hybrid doesnt have a separate grill, its actually part of the entire bumper, not a separate peice like the regular sedan or coupe. I got the coupe grill for my car off of ebay, but people on here usually sell them if they bought an aftermarket grill. Put a want ad in the forum, I'm sure people have them laying around. I know a black one is for sale in the forum right now and I think someone might have a silver one for sale too.
