Granted, i would leave the Mt Fuji on and leave it stock. It's not a bad looking OEM grill. At least the 05/06 gets a "black chrome" grill. It looks great on OB
Nah, our tastes are pretty similar. That grill has only looked good on IP IMO. But i'd still rock the stock grill..

I love mount fugi.

I like my stock grille too. I had a UTR one for a while but always felt it looked too much like a Civic for my taste. It looks pretty good on Papa's car but not my style.

Stopped by the shop, turns out that it's possible to still make it look good and fit with an oem bumper, they were testing it with my new bumper, and thats where the fail came in on my behalf...its ok, I'm fine with oem grill, just waste of time and money, the ebay guy wants pics of it not fitting and is offering to pay to help make it fit, i took pics, put barely with the new bumper, if he sees its aftermarket, he can decline to refund...

Hmm, just took a better look at grants car, he has it installed with the karuma z bumper, not sure what modifications the shop did, but i played around with the grill on the bumper, and could'nt get the sides settled with the bottom portion of the grill, it was either a gap on the sides or the bottom sticking out, i dont want neither...

post pictures of the grill on the bumper, if he declines i might buy the grill if its not that much of a hack job to make it fit right.
