Heyas,

Just wondering if it's possible to remove the front grill emblem on a Civic Si 99-00, or would i need to buy a new grill ?

I'm talking about the BIG "H" like the one in this picture:

you can buy a ctr style grille, or take a dremel, bondo, sandpaper, paint, and mesh and make your own..

 

So i should get a new grill since the "H"onda emblem is kindda embbeded in the grill ?

NO!!! TAKE OFF your bumper and all there is is 3 screws holding it on.

 

I have to remove the bumper to access the 3 screws ? No others ways to do this ? heh

 

removing the bumper isnt a big deal: 2 bolts in the wheel wells, 5 plugs along the top of the bumper (with the hood popped) and then 2 screws, one on each side of the grill that you wish to remove. Quick thing, then the smaller grill you are talking about removes with just a few screws. Check the DIY section, i think theres a DIY on how to remove that grill.

 

the man is totaly rite...just unscrew the bumber then the emblems and u got ur self a type r grill...simple and you didnt get hustled..lmao

 

10 minute job

 

i was worried the 1st time i took my bumper off to. i bet its been on and off 15 times since then. nothing hard about it just a few screws.

 

Are you in canada? I thought all USDM Si's came with the flat black grill. Any way, here you go..

So yeah, just get yourself a grill without the H off of Ebay, or try and find a genuine Si grill like I did.
