To start off i have a 06 LX sedan. i ordered the 07 Si sedan front grille and backing for it.
This is my own DIY on how to do it! haha
it started off with me wanting to just change the front grill but i already painted a bunch of things in the font RED
and got bashed on this forum so im going to change it back
. the front chrome H emblem i did not like going with my Galaxy Gray grill so i painted it black.(it was already ruined so if it doesnt look good im going to order a new one).
It was raining like crazy and i skipped class so decided to mod my car.
This is the before pix
Now Pop out the plastic screw with a Flathead Screwdriver
Pop out the screw in the middle first with a flathead then pop out the outer most ring
Take these 2 screws out with this tool *dont know the name
now this flap that the grill is on can be BENT forward and you must take out the screws behind the chrome peice. this is also i think the hardest part because the screws are small and you have to bend the grill forward to get to it.
this is what is behind the chrome grill once the screws are taken out. you must take these screws and put them on the new Si sedan grill
Oh the Difference!
Flip out the back of the chrome grill remove 1 screw and the H emblem should pop out
Messed up H emblem. decided to go black and if it doesnt look good buy a new one. It is red in the middle because i decided to spray paint it because i am a cheap ricer and i wanted it to be red lol!
done. 4 coats. kinda cheap and rice but whatever
Test fit. PERFECT!
Back in Black
Now pop the H emblem in the new grill. the 4 new screws off of the chrome should be on the si grille now and just put it back on the car. flip up the flap of the grille and get behind there and screw the 4 screws in.
AEM CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MACHINE
once done it should look like this.
Now I am officially all done. Takes about 20-40 minutes only. please feel free to sticky or anything. any questions or anything let me know. I think it looks alot better and i hope you all think the same!
Enjoy
