Default Ebay "Style" Type R Grill

Ebay bought Type R Grill-

Location- Ebay ( Seller: zoomzoom4u )
Price- $35.00 shipping included
Car- 1998 LX Civic

I was looking into giving my car a little bit of a sleeker, more uniform look. After doing some research I decided that a new grill to replace the less than flattering stock one would be ideal. And on a budget, it's definitaly a cheap upgrade too. I searched the internet and found a simalar "Name Brand" grill costing roughly seven times more what I paid for mine. I decided that for thirty five dollars, how could I go wrong? I ordered it and it arrived about five days after. The packing was well done, and made sure the product arrived in mint condition. I inspected the product and found no flaws. It's ready to be painted, and fits good.

Conclusion- Ebay grills are definitaly worth the money, and are of high quality.

Nice write up.
Thanks for the info.
I myself have been contemplating ordering a grill off ebay, but wasn't really sure.
I feel a little bit more confident now.
Thanks

I bought an SI frt grille from a salvageyard for $75 and it was *R81 Milano Red so I didn't have to paint it. It also had the SI Honda 'H' emblem too.

The EX grille



The Si grille

did you have to drill your own holes for the grill?
