No they're not. They are made by Katana. Not sure of the model though.

Edit: They're Tezza's

I've done mine already, you can look through Car Domain page too to see how it looks.

For the Hood Grill, I suggest you get an 86 Grill as that year is able to remove the outer chrome strip so you can install the mesh behind it (under the chrome).

My Lower Fascia Grill on the other hand was custom made by myself. I can provide pics for the work in progress to make it though.

i did mine awhile ago but took it out, because i didn't like the look of itm but its a wicked bitch to put back together......since the chrome strip has to fit perfectly u gotta cut holes in it and make sure they line up correctly or it will stick out qute a bit and look shitty.....plus useing screeen doesn't help either... :rofl:

If you want to remove the middle of the grill get your dremel tool and sandpaper out and get to work.

Wow that looks good! how many accords do you have? i saw one with eribuni kit, and another with stock body and grills, and another one.. ? so basically you cut out the plastic grill and just slip in a mesh one? does the mesh go on the inside or outside of the grill? and how does it stay on the bumper???

Actually it's ALL THE SAME CAR! :lol: I bought the car last August with the Erebuni kit, but the last owner did a lousy job of attaching it so I removed it for the winter. Over the winter months I re-modelled it to my liking instead. The car now looks totally different now with the ground fx redone. :rockon:

As for the grill......You will have to fiberglass the mesh grill in or find another way to attach it to the bumper cover. I molded the mesh grill into my ground fx kit by using fiberglass, then filling in the rough areas with bondo.

K...Letz try this in English...... :uh:
When I bought the car it had an Erebuni kit on it already. I removed THAT kit to modify it to what I wanted it to look like instead. I then re-installed the new MODIFIED kit back on this past Spring. Therefore it's still on the car & not for sale. The now looks like the pic below now.
