I wouldn't get, but I'm an OEM guy. At least fill the spot where the "H" used to be with some black mesh or something to stop rocks and thieves from entering the engine bay.

thats just the honda-tech EGO lol we all have it about certain things, just most ppl on h-t feel the same way about certain things which will explain all the "*******" type personalities

id ay get rid of the 2 circle vents on the side and i would like it 100x's better

but with as much work as you have into it and the finaly product ill give you a cuz most ppl who will ridicule you probably couldnt do nearly as good of a job

reguardlesss how it looks, if it was functional, it would be badass.

connect ducting to the 2 holes on the far ends and run the ducting to the center of the brake rotor.

boom, functional brake cooler.

rember:

form follows function.

Pretty ugly IMO. A 99-00 front would look a lot better.

Alright dude. A few things you need to do to make it look right

Paint the grills black, put them back in. It looks really bad that we can see right through the front grill and through those circular "brake ducts"

Get 3 flexible 3" pipe from RS akimoto and duct those circular "brake ducts" right onto... you guesses it, the brakes. Make it functional, right now the front bumper looks very confused.

Do it.

I think it looks pretty damn good for you doing it yourself, just paint the mesh black like you said, and I would put some of the black mesh where the honda symbol used to be. the functional brake cooler would be cool too, but I dont know how you would contruct that.
