Post up some pics with the hood closed. I like what I see so far, but I think it would look cooler with the hood down. Can you use those vents as functional air intakes for the turbo setup? Seems like you would get a lot of cold air coming in right there that could be harnessed for good use!

The mesh looks different in the pics than it does in real life. Without the mesh it looks weird, like something is missing.

I kinda like the way the mesh sits flush with the face area of the bumber. It was like that on my '97 Integra and I liked it better than the inset look. Kinda the reason I didn't get one for my S. I say good job.

Thanks to everyone for your opinions good or bad. I don't mind the negative comments. I posted it so you guys could tell me what you think. I think it looks all right, but my taste is different than others.

To those of you who asked about the side vents being functional. Yes, the side vents will have brake ducts on each side and an oil cooler on one side. The front vent obviously bigger than stock will help more air get by the intercooler and to the radiator. The small vents closer to the hood will also get more air to the radiator but first I have to take out the stock plastic cooling plate and then add a cf one up top.

A bit thick on the mesh but not a bad job at all honestly
