F Sport grille
I ordered the F Sport because of the LFA gauge and I thought front with the grille looks good but now when I look at it I see the stuff behind the grille which I don't like! I see this every time when I look at the grille.

What do you mean by "stuff behind the grille"?
Are you referring to the radiator, etc. or leaves, debris and such?
If the later, hopefully there's easy access to clean it out from time to time.
Thanks!

No. I don't have the car yet. I won't have it for 2-3 months but I been looking at a lot of reviews and pictures online and I can see the bumper and parts of radiator behind the F Sport grille. Maybe it'll be different in when you are looking at it in person but it's definitely dilutes the look a bit.

Are you able to see the bumper and radiator parts when you are looking at the grille in person? This doesn't bother you?

I mean...you can see the radiator through any grille.
Bear in mind that most shots taken for reviews and magazines are from the car's heigh level, from a standing hight you won't be able to see through the grill like that.

Here is YouTube video where you can see the bumper behind the grille. I just think it would look much better if you didn't see that.

Right...exactly my point. The photographer is crouching down and looking right through the grille.
Part of it is just reasonable expectation. There has to be a bumper, you have open spaces for airflow above and below, there has to be a support there in the center. The thing has to be street legal and safe.

I mean...it is what it is. There has to be a bumper bar there.

You really won't notice it on a daily basis. I notice it most when I'm washing it or if you have direct sunlight shining on it. The pattern of the grill does a good job disguising what's behind it.
