Aftermarket Grill?

[vectorz]

I've done searches for aftermarket grills, and haven't seen anything short of buying a new bumper. I have a 99 DE, and so I would love to have a bumper that is black all around the frame, and empty in the middle with just mesh covering it. Instead of how it looks now, with semi-black around the frame and then those little inserts all in the middle.

Anyone know where I can find anything like this? Or I would love to find a grill that looks like the one on Cali's car.

Cool that's a great idea! I'm not very 'crafty' though. Can you send me some pics of what your grill looks like on the car?

** Liberal grill is the one I want** <-- Will this grill work w/ my current stock US bumper? Where do I get it?

Here is a Pic of a homie who has done the modification on his stock grill and bumper.

Here is a pic of my car w/ the Liberal grill. Sorry, but you cannot make it fit without buying a pair of JDM headlamps. You can make it work if you take it to a shop and they add more fiberglass to it, so if u install them there will be a gap between the grill and headlights.

BTW, the headlamps are like 200-300 and liberal grill is 300 +shipping from japan....

yes, exactly. its real easy to use. i know i posted bout this sumwhere else too, but all u need is bumper paint in the color u wanna paint it, sum bond aid to make sure the paint will stick, and sum clear coat.
