Altezza Grill - Sedan & Coupe radiator cover (pics)
well I finally got off my lazy **** to change my brake pads... during the process I realized the stupid Honda grease monkey went trigger happy with the impact gun on my wheel nuts... as they wont budge at all no matter how much I try with my big *** torque wrench.
so with the car jacked up, I decided to install the frame bar found in 02+ Civics (LX and EX... duno if HX and DX has it)... and put the sedan radiator cover on my coupe to finish the altezza.
here's the difference between coupe and sedan radiator covers... and why altezza grill designed for the sedan wont really fit... (I dont know how some people get it to fit, I guess u can kinda squeeze it in but it might be popping out)
and here it is on the damn bumper.
and I just realized I have my license plate showing but oh well u can't really make that out. 3-5 of the digits anyway.

Rep Power: 0 Looks good, does it get rid of the gap between the hood and altezza grill without it? oh yea, can you buy it used from somewhere online or just go to Honda and pay a ton?

Rep Power: 368 I think it cost me 10 bucks plus 7 bucks shipping.. or something. I got a few other stuff along with it though...
majestic charge a large amount of shipping..
the dealer might hand it over to you for 20 or less.
it doesn't get rid of the gap since thats just the altezza.. but at least now its black and dark, instead of seeing straight into the engine bay... looks a bit better.
