Default Some updated pictures of my 06

Took it for a nice, spirited (I use that word in a relative sense) drive up nearby Azusa Canyon to the OHV park there. Stopped to take some pictures along the way -

Nice pics! How did you black out your "H" on the grille?

Great looking Pilot.
I like the "artsy" shot a lot. I have always been a fan of the black-n-white photographic genre. You're shot looks like it could be from an ad.

It was a really easy/straightforward process. Remove the multiple plastic fasteners that hold the plastic radiator cover atop the grille in place. The "H" emblem is held by two screws which you can easily access once that plastic panel is removed.

Sand, primer, and paint. I used flat black trim paint for it. Reassembly is the same steps as taking it out to paint.

It looks like the badge is missing or stolen when looking at it from distance, so I am thinking I will remove it and paint the edges red to mimic the look of the rims to make the badge stand out a little.

Thanks for the positive comments, folks!

Very nice tires and wheels combo. Did you lower your Pilot? The wheel gaps look smaller in those pictures.
