Altezza Grill put on today! Now with night PICS!! 56k = go away
Well, I put on my Altezza grill today with a buddy of mine. There seems to be a gap between the grill and the hood, but I expected that as soon as I realized that I will no longer have a radiator cover. The paint is really nice--it's NBP from Honda, but it's a little too shiny for my dirty car. I'll take pics once I wash the car.
K, here are pics with the car still dirty. Taken just now...
Pics aren't great... I was just messing around.

Rep Power: 0 its not really a gap i dont think. I think its just the fact that the top of the grill sits back further than the hood so it makes it look like there is a gap. atleast thats what i could tell from looking at my own altezza style grill.
Vic's almost done... thats sorta depressing...

you can see what appears to be a gap but like i said before, i think its just a result of the grill top sitting back further than the front lip of the hood.

gappage - dont fret!! The gap is there even with the stock oem grill, except the bar in the middle makes is unoticeable. The sedan radiator cover aligned exactly with the top edge of the grill so it's meant to be 
If you're kneeling down (like how you took the pictures) you'll notice it, but standing up close you won't see it or from far away it will be too dark underneath to to see the gap!
car looks good
