Factory unit is just too expensive.

Made one perfect and fits in easyer than the factory unit too.

You are the best, Old Fart! Keep coming up with the ideas.

I just changed the upper grill and put in a racing grill upper and lower.
Part is the universal black aluminium grill by summit racing products. the picture is on the other site . I could not believe how easy it was to remove the front assembly! The final results look beauty eh!

Pictures please :?:

Is that the one from the dealer or Oldfarts homemade one?

that's his home-made one. You can post pictures from "the other site" by right clicking them, selecting properties, copying the URL and using that for your img tag. I believe its up to "the other site" to block remote file access. :twisted:

I plan on using his plans myself, but a bit closer to tailgating season (i.e., September)

What other site? And are the plans/descriptions there?

where did you get black PVC pipe and caps? I have looked at home depot and have been able to find nothing.

Old Fart and his Dad's CD were at the E-Vent on the 25th and showed off his back rest. Let me tell you, it's really cool, easy to make and does the job.

Thanks Paul, I'll be making one for myself real soon.

All the materials and instructions are on hondaelement.org site I believe in accessories or do it yourself mods

the PVC pipe is available at home depot and so are the end caps.

The foam and vinyl was located at fabricland :wink:

Old fart
this homemade one looks better than the OEM and not to mention cheaper too.
thanks for the idea... a plan would be very helpful though
