    I suggest making it dip down into the top of the front bumper....

    know where that chrome/plastic grille is on the hood? make something to go there, but goes lower and in a more circular fassion that dips down into the bumper, then cut the bumper to fit... i think it'd bust up the "blockyness" of the front end.

    i have made mesh grilles for my car. the first one replaced the whole original grille and looked pretty tight. then i decided to just make an insert for the original. it goes behind the chrome bezel thing. i dont have any good pix of that right now. i was thinking of doing a horizontal egg crate type grille or honey comb type, painted red or another color.
    Keep it HONDA. Or at least Asian.™

    The 'blockyness you speak of is what makes a 3G a classic 80's car though...
