I think if your going to relocate it, you need to atleast shave the OEM mounting holes, or get those plugs to fill them in, else it looks fugly IMO

looks pretty good with the relocation, i do like the look it gives the car.

the only reason why i thought about doing this was because i saw a slammed civic with an ultra-low plate on its bumper and it caught my attention.

well, keep them coming i guess.

I am waiting on my Cusco relocation deal. It's an expensive way of doing it, but I am doing a semi rebuild of the car so what's an extra $50 on the reloactor. I am doing it to give my Rad/IC/Oil Cooler some more airflow. My car is not a DD, but it will see the street so I saw this as a good way of staying legal while still meeting my cooling needs.

The point is that I don't want to go to home depot & find/buy parts to diy. Ordering on the net is easier, and the $46 whatever it cost won't break my bank.
