Thanks man. Sadly, there are so many rock chips, dents, scratches, etc., that take away from the clean look. I do take pride in keeping her clean, but having a colour like mine will be challenging and the future may hold a new paint job.

yeah that's what happens when you try to install a grille made for the MP3/MSP/Protege5 on a normal sedan.

I was going to silver to match the car.... but I thought it would look too normal, so, I am going to go black. I know about the grill, I bought it off of ebay like 4 months after I bought the car new in '03, and put it on, closed the hood & CRACK, it broke. I e-mailed the company (from Taiwan) and the basically told me I had an aftermarket bumper & to F-off! So after spending like $120 I just left it. I am looking at a CF hood, with silver side, so I might put the original grill back on, or a CF grill to match the hood. BUT definately black for sides & rear. Thanks for all the help to everyone!

I'd say get the CF grill if you get the hood. It will go with the CF eyelids too.

There is no CF grille made for the "normal" sedan bumper though, just the P5/MSP/MP3 bumper

Really? Damn. That sucks

Now that I think about it, I was always planning the swap so I never looked for an aftermarket sedan grill.

D-rock, when the heck you going to get that spoiler? Do it already...

I just missed out on getting one before my car went into the body shop. Now it will have to wait a few months, until I can convince myself to part with it for a few days again. I hate putting my car in the shop. It was supposed to be ready Saturday night, and the latest ETA is tomorrow after work
