Let that decide wether you screwed up or not

But as ChazInMT says, we usually start with blocking the upper grille first.
Blocking the entire lower grille can also be a bit too much, depending on the weather and season.
And it can block air flow to transmission / AC / or inter cooler - if you have any of these, see that it can still get some cooling air.

I smoothed out the front to make what I took to be the bottom part of an air dam.
It IS an air dam.

Just make sure you can get away (cooling wise) with this kind of blockage - and the top grille.

FYI : 1990s Honda's had little or no top grille .
