Which ones did you get :?:

Are the slots wide enough so air can get thru? Do you think there would be a problem of the engine over heating?

These grills have better cooling than the stock grill. The stock grill is solid and dosen't let air through, this one does. The billet grill replaces the stock grill.

Munch, those look great! Do you know if they come in black and could you tell me where you got them from?

Congrats on one damn sophisticated box! :D

I ordered the T-Rex too...same as the one Munch got...

unfortunately, thats not true, the billet grille makes the engine run hotter cuz it lets all the air into the engine bay thru the grille and actually creates pressure in the engine bay, thus not lettin the air enter in through the radiator as it was designed to do. The billet grille that comes with the hot lava has a peice of plastic behind it to block the airflow for this very reason. :shock:

Well according to my digital temp gauge my car runs 10 degrees cooler than it did before the grill change. I go by numbers :wink: .

I don't know if the T-Rex grills come in black but the Bee cool billet grill sets do.

Just to point out.
The radiator uses the 2 lower grill (on the bumper)
the stock upper grill doesnt let air thru becuz it is solid from behind :wink:

He's right. I was wondering if anyone knew if you can order only the bottom 2 cause i'll just order the top one from my parts dept.

I definitly love the look of that better.

Munch. Where did you order the grilles from?

sweet! :wink: :wink:

Did you take any pics of the grill before mounting?

sweet! :wink: :wink:

Did you take any pics of the grill before mounting?
Nope I don't have any pics before I put them on :(

I'm wondering how they install compared to the b Cools. The top grill is pass through on the tRex too, right?

Yes it is. But I made an aluminum piece to direct air down to my radiator, and also to direct water down out of the engine bay.

:D Hey Munch, looks great!
Was it an easy install? Did the kit come w/screws because I heard some of the kits out there use zip ties :?
(I like your plates by the way...funny!)

No zip ties here. The grills come with all the brackets and hardware you need to install them.

It was an easy install. The install took me about 45 minutes to do. I've had my plates for a long time now. They ____ of the local Honda crowd. I love it :twisted: :twisted: .

But I can't find matching bottom grilles :(

Try Randode's grills. They look pretty similiar. If I go with the mesh upper, I'll buy his stuff too. But those billets look sweet too!

Randode stopped selling his grills. On the website it says discontinued.

I think that mesh grill is nice too. I also think it' would look fine with the stock lowers if you were to paint them to match the color of the upper. Just a thought.

Hmmm, this changes my plans! Guess I didn't check out his grills lately. I still think the mesh grill would look sweet by itself.

I would want the lower grills to be exactly the same as the top stock grill. Easier to dry after washing, and would have a great monochromatic look.

Hey,

I bought the grill off ebay and have not been able to figure out how to instal the middle grill. The is nothing to use the tie's on to secure the grill?

Thanks

I've heard those grills suck..............sorry bro. I think you are supposed to zip tie those things to the stock grill. Mine are totally different than those. They come with thier own hardware (brackets and bolts) to secure them to the car.
