Galaxy Grey Civic with TypeR grill?

flateric · 27th July 2007, 00:07

Do you think a Type-R front grill on a 5-Door Galaxy Grey Civic looks aesthetic or not at all?

I'm not sure, so I photoshopped a final version to have an impression.
Please tell me what you think

czechplastik · 27th July 2007, 00:12

Yeah it looks ok,

I still prefer the original but if you like it go for it!

malett · 27th July 2007, 04:50

Emmmm NO

Kremmen · 27th July 2007, 06:58

I prefer the full glass 'robocop' style

FWH · 27th July 2007, 07:57

Im not voting.
I think both look really nice.

But the "SM" style full space ship version is the one I prefer because it is different compared to other stuff on the road.

I actually agree with CZ on something...

Blimey - get the diaries out - I do too!

Do think the R version looks nice, but prefer the original

I prefer the Type R grill and WANT ONE!! but I'm not sure of the cost!!

allan40alt · 27th July 2007, 10:05

No; sorry. Doesn't look as good as the 'all glass'.

Have to give it the thumbs down, I'm afraid...

Ps: Having a second look I think the original looks bright and clean but the alternative 'R' makes the front look, well, dull. It loses it's vibrant sparkle. I think the 'R' grill looks good on the Milano Red, on NHB and on the Alabaster Silver...oh...and, of course, only if it really is a Type 'R'.

Pps: Your car with it's body kit and wheels looks a-ok. Be careful you don't spoil it.

I think it looks good. But I don't like the fake Type-Rs so better put normal Honda badge on it and then it is fine!

I will keep the original nose on my car because I like it and aerodinamically (cw) is better not to have a hole there

romatic · 27th July 2007, 10:16

Me no like. Prefer the original. Type R grills for type Rs I say.

Wonder what a complete black front would look like ?

Anyone got some time to do a 'photoshop'

Black light lenses as well..........

I started a try. Maybe you like it this way?
But how to tint the front? Coated film could be one soulution...

Anyway...thanks for your feedback so far...

scol78 · 27th July 2007, 11:21

Stick with the original ,theres nothing on the road quite like it.

Foggy69 · 27th July 2007, 11:22

The smoked lights with the Type R grill looks very good.

Wasn't Danko looking into this mod for his Type R

Kremmen · 27th July 2007, 11:24

I think that looks OK as well

Brodick · 27th July 2007, 11:46

The type R Grill really only suits the Type R
I mean who wants two different coloured badges on their car
it just doesn't sit right on the 5 doors

pjr · 27th July 2007, 12:37

I like both, although would prefer to not have the red H on the front, as it isn't an R

I thought most of us had two different coloured badges on the car anyway - the front one is black, and the back one is red
