Here this video should help with the bumper at least:

Where did you get the new grille?

 

Supposedly the grille off a '14 won't fit early years because there's a slight variation in design in the hood, but good luck to you and post pics if it fits!

 

To OUR ODYSSEY, I purchase the grille in the States.
Thank you for the video and yes if it fits I will post pics for sure!

 

You'll have a gap.

 

I installed the front 2014 grille on my 2011 and it fit.
I would like to post some pics if someone's kind enough to tell me how.

 

Excellent!

Right above where you post your message, where you see "font, size", etc... click on third icon from the end and follow the prompts.

 

so here's the final look! the top of the grille comes out a little bit up front but does not make the look bizarre or anything.

 

Looks good from the front, but not sure I'm digging the bulge of the grille from the side view.

 

I do understand. But it does not really show that much when you see it live and I imagine that you notice it less since it's black on black.
Plus the only reason I tried it was because i had someone's pick-up reverse in my bumper (so had insurance money to do it).
I'm trying to refresh and having fun with the car without going crazy with it

 

No worries, Phil, I thought about doing it myself, but being the anal retentive person I am, I can't get over that gap.

 

You should invest in to the hood to make it look like a real deal. The air deflector does help a bit.

 

Thank's humanoid.
As for that hood, huuummm, don't think the wife would let me put out that money!
I will live with that gap, thinking it's my own design! :tongue:

 

Don't ask

 

Okay, gotta a ask the dumb question. Why do you want to do this???

I get that you want to customize the vehicle - got it. But a grill from another year that doesn't quite fit - don't get it.

Many vehicles, trucks especially, have customized grill instead of the original so I can see how one might want a different appearance about their car. Is there not other options for Odyssey? I simply don't know.

In fact, there are several threads about putting 2014 parts onto 2011~2013 (e.g., LED tail light assembly) - again, why?

Completely understand upgrading for performance parts or something better than factory but to go through the change just for new model year parts - don't get it still....

 

The question about the grille that doesn't fit, is quite simple I did not know that the hood was going to be a little bit short.
I had no way of knowing it before putting it on.
the fact that I change the front grille is purely esthetic, because my car is black and did not like the gray color grille with i, so when I saw
the new black color grille I like it better. And has I said before, I had a accident with my bumper so had insurance money to cover everything, otherwise I would not have spend that money.
Voilà! Plus it's the only thing that I have change.

 

Thanks for the response. There was a thread while back that showed someone who had blacked out the grill (and everything else too) by painting/powder coat it. If you still have the old grill, perhaps black paint maybe an option, if you ever decide the gap becomes problematic.

I have a dark cherry Ody and would like the grill be be the same body color instead of gray but have not done anything about it so I get it....

 

Per OP, the old grill was damaged in the accident, the new one seems to be working fine for him. I personally wouldn't do the coversion but to each his own.

 

Thanks for sharing. I always speculated it would look more awkward/misaligned given the new hood design, but not really. The black on black also helps. Now get the black bezel headlights, that is what I liked the most out of the front refresh

Thank's BIGBOAT,
love the bezel headlights but I think that's enough changes and money(put on car) for me , I will live with the car the way it is right now and look forward for the new one in 2017?

 

Hi I'm new here! Proud owner of 2011 odyssey.
I did the upgrade for just $200 and I'm really satisfied!
At first was afraid of the problem with the grill popping out to much but is really minor thing, I can live with that maybe later will upgrade the hood as well.
Here some pic:

 

I did install the fog lights everything was fine just need some modifications on some tabs.
I just cut with a sharp blade

 

Here is some BEFORE AND AFTER

I did install the Roof racks, sun roof air deflector, moldings on doors, black piano pillar bars in doors, hitch, headlight, upper grill, lower grill and fog lights.

 

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing.

I'll look out for a grill and lower grill. Heck if the headlights are available i'll throw those in too.

If a wrecked (knock on wood) 14+ Ody comes up and the grills are available i'll look to make the switch on my 2012.

Hi, when you replacing the Headlights and front Grill.... do you had to adjust something or everything fit...??

 

See pictures. I installed a new gloss black grill. Could have done it with bumper on but decided to take bumper off and clean my condensor. Also added a gloss black Honda emblem. This is a 2016 SE.
