Blacked out the center only to realize it was in the way.Cut it out instead of making a notch in the grille.Late model accord horns are nice and loud.
This is the stuff used to finish out the grille after the middle was filled with bumper repair goo.Ill post some pictures when I find some more.

Thanks fellas.Yea I work at a bodyshop.Took all of friday noon and most of monday morning to do just the bodywork.Not a mod I can make money on.
The top middle part of the grille is flimsy with the emblem support missing.Didnt want to risk it breaking taking out all the slats.The bumper didnt loose much stiffness.Theres a metal frame on the car that keeps it sturdy.Or so its seems.

...you beat us too it......good work body man.....
I still dont understand this
...if the modified grille is oem...and is just missing one connection after the cut out...is the missing center connection to bumper just more visibile?
Disclaimer: I have not removed a 5.5 grille yet...to actually see this area in person.

i was planning on making a whole new grill from fiberglass but this will probly be easier, and take less time. thanks for the idea

Yea its more visible since the emblem isnt covering it up anymore.
