    My new grill!

    So, I got HELLA bored today... bored enough to pop my grill off and make a new one. Its not done, still have some plastic cutting to do, and i need some recommendations.



    I cut a bit too much from the gutter guard, but its barely noticeable.



    So I just need to dremel some more plastic, and I should be set. How does it look?

    Oh, and thanks to micksf22accord for the emotional support on AIM, haha.

      I just dont know what to do with the end, they sorta curve right now, should I cut into the frame and put them into there so its all flush and shit?

                looks cool, i just did almost the same thing to my cb9 but i got a grill from a 90-91 because of the same problem you have. the 90-91 crome trim peice is closed on the ends. i also shaved the "H" emblem and added an "Accord" emblem in the left corner like a chargespeed grill, the crome trim peice is color matched to the car and the gutter gaurd is flat black.

                  I think what you need to do is throw some silver paint on the two side pieces instead of cutting into it. And make sure the two sides are even too, cuz you can tell where the original end of the sheet is on one side and where it's cut on the other.

                  I know it may not make you feel better, but it's so much easier to do with the 90-91, because you can seperate the two pieces and sandwich the gutter guard in between.

                  I've never messed with the 92-93, but maybe you can get some bondo or other sticky crap like that and wrap the mesh BEHIND the grill, gives it more of that recessed look, which is cool.

                      actually thats not the end of the sheet, that peice was from the center.
                      should i just spray paint most of the thing silver?
