Default Poor Betty

Raymo gave Betty an ID crises by removing not only her H's but her S2000s as well. Poor Betty.

Yesterday I went the other way. I did not want my gal to have any mix up on who her daddy was.

I like that! My 80 Prelude was one of the few Hondas not to have an "H" on the front -- just small silver letters similar to what you have

I like the look of the grille too -- I was thinking of getting that but someone told me it would block too much air flow while driving hard... ?

Nice shop too!

I like it, too. And I'd rather have HONDA on the front grille than MICHIGAN! j/k I do like the no-front-license-plate.

Dozens and dozens of people have the grill inserts including several Vintage folks. As far as I can recall I've only heard of one person, a racer in CA, who had one and removed it for that reason. His car as I recall was modified as well. Come spring with my new tires and race pads I will give it a test to know for sure. I thought I'd do something a little different and came up with the Honda idea.

Grille-Tech. Grille-Tech.com. It's a light weight plastic. I also got the side inserts as well. The larger insert comes with black plastic ties. The sides with stainless steel screws. To avoid using the screws I drilled two small holes in two corners and used black plastic ties on the sides.
