    JDM 87-89 Vigor grille on a 3G Accord

    Doesn't fit properly. Bolts on but the sides don't line up with the eyelids on the headlights. Also prevents the hood from latching properly.

    its a 88-89 vigor grille on a 86. thats the problem, im sure u can modify it. thats why a18a didnt have a problem cause he has the bumper to go with it. i knlow the normal facelifted grilles fit on the 86 accords tho cause mine fitted perfectly with no isssue.

    stupid 88-89s!

    lol it's a Honda alright

    I can see the problem with the sides being too far recessed from the headlight brows. Is it recessed like that on the 87-88 Vigors as well? I havent noticed it before in the pitures of vigors.

    would look better without the top H....bondo it and paint it, would be easy

    i think it would look better without chrome bumper, but could be painted
