Wrong kit, but still looks pretty good... now all you have to do is pick up the Matching Hood trim

actually I think it's looks pretty good in that way, I like the tsx hood trim better, so I think I will stay with it.

Ahh...i think i spotted u coming out of the Pacific Mall yseterday...i was the PWP heading into the lot as u were coming out.

Wow..ur shop many the grill fit well perhaps they shaved off a bit of the grill's inner lip to make it fit better or something ....which shop is that?? Looks like the Speedtech shop...

Personnally, I never got the Acura rebadge to Honda thing, but to each his/her own I say. I like hte shark fin tho. My friend here has an 04 and put one on. Purely for looks as he didnt have the sat in 04. Looks much better than the 05 hump. If I could get one that would actually work with my sat radio...hmm.

I like the Red H so much, I think it's JDM style. white car with red H. perfect match

Yea, speed tech(recommend for the ppl in Toronto area) did a good job for me, the Euro-R grill was not perfectly fit, I asked them to cut the trim a bit(the black plastic cover which is used above the grill and under the hood) so make them fit very well, as you can see in the pic the white Euro-R trim is little bit short at the both side, compare with the Acura grill.

pcdawg--I think I saw you too at pacific mall, you(with Mugen grill) were coming from outside when I was went out from the gate. :) nice car.

about shark fin, personally I like it on my car, but my friend told me it was too tall, but you know that is the way I like, at least for now, I will keep it untill I don't like it.

Nice....it now looks almost flushed and very little gap.

I believed I saw your car before a couple months back as well...with just the oem kit, painted foglights and sharkfin.

I was thinking of being a ricer and getting a red ACura emblem on the back :surprised .... Your red honda emblem matches the Euro R emblem near the bottom as its a bit of red as well....

I'm from Toronto as well, where did you get the Euro-R Grill? @ P.Mall or Ebay??
Personally, I guess I'm blind or something, but can anyone post a clear picture here with Mugen Grill, and Euro-R Grill?? What's the differences???
I'm currently looking to get this TSX Type-R JDM Grill (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Acura-04-05-TSX-Type-R-Front-Grill-Mesh-Grille-JDM-New_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33645QQitemZ8030180 735QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW) from E-bay. Is that the same grill as yours???

The one your looking at on E-bay is a Mugen Knock off more then likely

Try Polepositionproducts.com or Boomplustoys.net for the Euro R Grill/Badges/Trim

don't be fool, the picture they posted on the car appeared to be the real mugen grill w/o the badge. The actual product they showed its different. Look at the top cross bar on the grill... it doesn't even look the same.

I bought my Euro-R front grill(come with H emblem and Euro-R emblem) and back Euro-R emblem on ebay $140 with shipping. it's not easy to find out on ebay. took me long time to find it out. pacific mall don't have the Euro-R grill for sale, maybe you can find the mugen one, but not sure.
here is the pic of the Mugen grill

I found this web site that sell the body kits for CL9 CL7, look pretty good.

Hey zynt~
Thx for posting the picture. So I guess the one I have is a knock off Mugen then, but will it fit on the TSX? I think the Euro-R Grill does look really nice on the TSX, is your Euro-R Grill comes pre-paint for $140 incl. shipping??? Just don't understand why Toronto has nothing good for our car~!

looks good man.....from afar...like REALLY far, people might think you have the euro R kit too... since you painted your fogs

no, my Euro-R is unpainted when I got them, I sent it to body shop for paint,
that will cost about $100Cad to get the job done. I think the Mugen kit you don't have to worry about the fitment, but the Euro-R you have to modify a bit.

The pic that zynt posted is the mugen knock off...the real mugen grill will have the mugen emblem..so if u have the emblem its real...

The fitment of the mugen grill is not perfect...but its alot better than the fitment of the euro R....

looks good but you gotta take off that Acura license plate frame.. kinda kills the idea of rebadging the car

zynt
01-16-2006, 06:20 PM
Hahaha, yea, I don't even think about the License plate :) I will try to get some cover instead of the frame

I bought the shark fin from ebay around 10USD including shipping, very cheap, I order was white color but it's different white with my TSX, so I repaint it to match my car.

if you have the XM radio antenna on the roof then the shark fin will not fit over the antenna, unless you don't want the antenna and replace with shark fin. but I think it's not worth. the shark fin just for looking. that is my opinion.

ok thanks too bad they dont make one that goes over it for looks and boosts reception

I personally am not a fan of the chrome trill with euro r grill. However looks like you got good fitment on hte bottom just like I did with mine and not the bad fitment some others got.
