you get what you pay for, sometimes you get lucky and shit fits and sometimes it doesnt, no way to mod it to fit?

Looks pretty tight too bad it didn't fit.
All replica mugen grills are made for JDM bumpers. You can get them to fit on USDM bumper, but you WILL have to do some modification. I feel for ya, but if you were willing to cut, and repaint your grill, then you should have been willing to test out the fitment by cutting away at the back.
I had to do a similar procedure on my fiberglass mugen replica grill. It doesn't fit perfect, but its close.

I don't buy anything off of eBay unless it's a used OEM part or an aftermarket name brand part from a big name seller. No knock offs!
i wanted to order this one..... crap!
ive seen this grill before on ebay. I have also seen a couple of sellers but the best one was a guy who showed the product on 3 different ep3's.
-one had it molded into the bumper
-one had a JDM bumper with it on
-one was USD with it modified to fit
he also said it would not fit USD bumpers directly and showed why.
all the other sellers are like "MUGEN GRILL FOR YOUR EP# BUY NOW CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP ....AND ITS EVEN CaRbOn FiBeR!!!11~ *gasp*"
Pappy's right of course, the grill you speak of requires moderate modification to fit the usdm bumper. Chris explained it as best as I've ever heard and I've seen his in person, it looks fine.
this is another example of cheap imitation knock offs, i have a love hate relationship with knock-offs, don't get me twisted, Seibon does make quality reps, but i guess the the sayin stays true "you get what you paid for"
LOL,
I have them in CF and FG that fits perfect. just ask MoonSi.
hit me up if interested?
thx,

Im afraid to buy stuff off ebay. ebay is the devil sometimes. I bought some lugs off ebay like 2 years ago and they looked like they were made out of coke cans. I guess ebay is a hit or miss basis
i bought mine from usashowstopper
i think it is almost the same with yours , but i managed to fit it with minor mod...
about the logo, yeah it is not flat, just bend a little bit of the logo and tadaaa....nicely fit!
the logo should be smaller if u wanna use on the mugen grill (check the original mugen grill, see the emblem slightly smaller than jdm logo?)
btw here some pic, good luck with your refund.... the seller was so nice...hard to find those honest sellers
