just get the accord grill and put it on lolOriginally Posted by Overdosed A18A
i thought that too, but the ones on mine go straight down vertically, and the one a accord goes down on a angle, i might try get 1 of these little pieces off a 86 accord and see if it fits
EDIT:
see the difference in the ends:
personally id prefer the accord ends if they fit
what do u think i have lol 86-87 grill and 88-89 everything else

another car with downsyndrome
This is an interesting thread really. You're noticing all the little differences between the Vigor and Accord. Another one of those little tiny differences that Honda like to do to make things no-so-swappable.
It looks to me like not only is the grille different, but the headlight ends, and the hood as well in fact.
Should be a fun project... Looking forward to updates!
yeah to me it looks like the hood is completely different. i mean the angle of the USDM one is different than vigor. not so noticeable until you stare though.
im 99.99999.999% sure the only difference in the hoods is the accord one has 2 holes in it for the H and the vigor doesnt
I think if you look closely where the grille meets up with that little piece that you're missing, you'll see that the angle and depth into which that piece is cut into the hood is different. It could just be the camera angles though. Pictures don't always tell the whole story.
yeah i noticed that too, my one looks a little rounder than that other one.. im gonna see if the 88-89 accord one fits on the hood... should be interesting
it might be the same hood, and the grille on the vigor just covers it. you know what i mean? cuz if you notice, the grill is taller on the vigor than on the accord. sooooo it seems if it would be the same hood, the grill would have to cover some of it and be a bit taller.
looks like the same hood to me
well yeah anyways i just bought a honda stereo plug adapter thingy since silly me left my 1 n only plug in the old 3gee
