I know it's not a TL, but it's the same modification?

Not bad, still a little Camry-esque.

Looks awesome. If I end up with a 2G TSX, I will consider painting the grille, even though it doesn't bother me nearly as much on the TSX as it does on the TL.

You probably think a Volvo is Camry-esque.

I think it looks much more like the Civic coupe.

While I still prefer the gen 1 TSX style (overall) this painted grille gives the gen 2 TSX a MUCH better look aesthetically!!
But I wonder if it only works for black (or dark color)?? Could someone photoshop this pic with lighter color (with the body color grille) and see if the effect would be the same? I think with lighter color (i.e. white) it would look great with blacked-out grille! Any takers?

I gave it a shot, unfortunately it's really hard to photoshop a black car to white.

Saw one (TSX) with the surround painted body color, now that looked like a civic.

TSX owners have luxury of putting euro/soon to be JDM Accord facia which, IMHO, looks much better than the Acura one. Sadly TL may never get one (JDM inspire is USDM Accord, nto TL)...
