I got mine from eBay for $180 - the guy has a website at http://www.b-coolbillets.com.

Had I known I had to cut out the OEM grille, I would not have bought this grill. Also, the instructions were VERY weak, and I got a wrong set of screws (they would not fit). I also had to sand and paint the bumper where I cut so it wouldnt look nasty. So, after hacking my way through my baby with a saw, a trip to Home Depot, sanding, painting and about six hours of my day, this is what I got...



The quality of the grill itself is great, and all in all I am happy with the END result. However, not sure if it was worth it, and I would definitely not do it again knowing what I know now...

Yes, they are fog lights, I'm planning to get Piaa 1100 to replace those too. I even custom made a bracket, so I could screw the grill in with a allen wrench. Makes it convienence to take it off and put it back on without the look of the zip tie. You could somewhat see it on the grill, the 2 tiny little dots.

Just plain mesh you get at any hardware store...looks nice and cheap but isnt quite as strong and isnt custom fit so you have to get it to fit yourself...

I have a close up of the other side but the center isnt very visible...its the one my avatar is...here

washer bottle doesnt show, wasnt a problem. comes off easy to place the mesh inside the grill.

Thanx. Im not sure what Im gonna do after I paint it..It will be Black with alot of red metaillic flake...so black and red throughout...I think I might do the same but maybe paint it to add contrast.... I would love some ideas. the side markers will be jdm clear with white leds behind them(great cheap mod, twolow on zcar.com has a great how-to, looks much better and is cheaper than the led sidemarkers out now) so the center will be the only thing, not like I have now, with center and sides with mesh.

I was waiting for someone to flame on this thread...I'm no fan of honda civics either...but I'm not sure I follow the logic of this post. I dont see how cleaning up the look of the front end is a bad thing, its not like we are slapping euroclear taillights and a huge a$$ double stack aluminum wing on the back, then calling ourselves fast...THAT'S what you do to a civic ( or at least from what I observe... ) People have been putting custom grilles on hotrods since like the 50's...that in no way is RICE
