I agree... the lower portion of the hybrid bumper is aesthetically pleasing. But the grill has much to be desired. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] A combination of the two (hybrid bumper and conventional grill) would really set the car off. I never really thought about this before until I saw the pictures... not bad!!!

The part that sucks more is that it's molded in... so you can't change it without cutting it off. I suppose when you had it painted, the body shop could cut out the hybrid grille, and mold the OEM Coupe one on. Then it would look great.

I wish the hybrid grille replacement was as easy to do as the "cut and paste" job in the picture.

ummm I dont think so, you just have to remove the bumper to remove the grill...most ppl remove their grill to get painted, ive seen it done over at Club RSX.
