I dont think the grill has anything to do with that. If anything this would let in more air. Its the radiator plate that has slits for the air to go into the air scoop.

And JDP did he state he would make GD parts once he finishes everything up with the GE. I believe he is also planning on making a CF hood and spoiler and I think he'll be done after that.

I do like it. I believe it should be a black 1/2 inch grill.

It would be so awesome if you could add a JDP emblem on the center of the mesh.

Will the grill fit over the bumper like this mugen one?

http://www.collegehillshonda.com/sto...gengrille2.jpg

I want it to sit flush behind the bumper and not go over it like the mugen does. It looks out of place.

And I wouldnt want an emblem up there. No offense to JDP I just want my front end clean of all emblems and such. Ill rock a JDP sticker or something else.

over all..mmm..very nice..but think we need to look at it installed on the car. My thoughts on the look of the grill should bring out the contour of the fit's hood. like alittle bit more aggressive "V" shaped come down from the tip of the hood where it meets the grill. **Dont even know if this makes any sense**..next question would be $$$???

Great Work JDP!!

Nope it will not sit like the mugen one. I utilized the original grill to create this piece.

I think a black mesh backing will be the best looking.

oh another suggestion, maybe make the "border" especially the top a little skinnier, or thinner for a more aggressive look (not as bulky). It kinda looks like its smiling at me right now.

I'll post more pictures of this on a car.

It'll give you a better idea of how it really looks...before I make any changes.

I really like how it looks right now.

That's hot. It would look really good painted white with a glossy black mesh. Are you guys going to be making a matching lower grill too? This will be the third thing that I plan to buy from ya'll once available and once I get the funds. lol.
