the only thing that bothers me about this grill is that you ahve to drill a hole for the top screw and the screws are not black. i will buy black screws once i get my jdm bumper.

i never even knew grilcraft made a upper grille for our car.
it does look nice. but for 150 ?
spend a extra 50 bucks and buy the c/f mugen grille from ss =O)

I have both the upper and lower grillcraft grilles and I really dont like the upper one as much as the lower. I'll probably be selling mine soon.

Hmmm...first time I've seen a pic of one.
Looks okay...looks good really, I guess. My concern about that
upper grill is that with a different one in place (or without the
stock one, as one car I've seen is like that), it just looks "empty"
behind there.
Even the lower grill I have (GrilleCraft) just seems to "see through"
when looking straight on. I wish they could make the mesh smaller or
something.

Anyway, thanks for the pics.

That looks extremly clean.
Looks good.

Sweet, it looks good. The only thing I kind of don't like is that I think the wiring should be a little thicker. Like it looks clean but seeing the different silvers and whites behind it kind of throws it off a little I guess.

Congrats!

looks good that is exactly what i wanna do but the wire is too thin for my taste i want to to have the same thikness of the OEM grill...i wish i could mod the OEM one to be like that with out the flat H spot in the middle

I think it looks alright...but IMO with a c/f hood already you should have definitely gone with a mugen replica c/f grill!

im not too impressed by the mugen grill plus it looks like everybody else is leaning towards that.

someone needs to make a grill like the ones on ek civics, where its just the outline and the nothing in the middle, i like those alot

i did a diy on my upper grill. I mad it out of gutter guard. I cut it out, bent it, and spray painted it flat black. I paid about $20 and i looks the same as the grillcraft one.

hard enough to where it is not functional. i am still working on trying to make it work properly. i can get the button to light up but it wont start the car.

I'm sorry, man, but that just sounded funny as hell when I read it. ;)

Let us know when you get the button working properly.
