i figured shed say that all the time. its a cuban thing.lol as for he vibrating cabin noise...well shit. i got rattling on the license plate for sure, what i noticed is that when i held the plate in place there was still rattle, i had to push the trunk forward towards the cabing for it to stop, so i take it i have to silence my trunk? or are there other parts i dont know about?

my car doesnt have a plastic thing, it just sits on my bumper with a chrome frame. not sure if the frame that holds it in place is what youre referring to. and other j, you can buy some pretty decent sound systems off of south florida sales on facebook. i bought a box with 2 12s, fosgate r2 and an 1100 watt boss amp. not the best amp but it isnt the worst either. relatively cheap in comparison to a 3k sound system. lol

I actually went to audio logic this morning to look at some things.... I've been pricing it out.... trying to keep the costs down...

Headunit makes the install much more easy in the long run...using factory head, depending on where you grab sound, can introduce engine noise you're not hearing because you're not amplifying factory amp sound. I suggest you take your low levels from before oem amp in kick panel.

Indeed... Ive heard those horror stories... I'm going to trust that the installer will be aware of what they are doing... hence why im paying you for your service.. lol

I just realized that type S headlights have less amber on the diffuser... I thought they only had a smoked look to them... my heart hurts so much right now.. Are they by chance direct swap.....??

Gansta is right.
Direct swap, yes...but you'll need the right DRL bulb and corner bulb. So no. Not direct swap.

I'm not sure what I meant by gansta...
but yes, it fits...but you'll need to solder on new bulb sockets to fit the bulb openings for type s lights.

I call dips on that RSB....my brother in law will be coming along in his 05 TL Base and this will be a nice little mod for him since he just started doing some mods.


Ive been checking out your progress thread and shit I feel like ive been wasting time ...back when I attended my last meet you were fairly stock! I got the KBP beside you there!

Good to hear from you again dude. Looking forward to seeing you at the meet. I'll bring the sway bar.

Yeah I think I was all stock back then, that was what like a year ago?

Technically J said you *would* take it, but to be fair 876_CGP_TSX did call dibs 1st. Jeremy you shoulda just called it then gave it to him. In either case, a new one is only ~$50 from acuraoemparts.com so not worth a big argument.



I strongly recommend ordering new bushings for it. My used ones are...used

I have the bar, the used bushings and the brackets. You get it all.

Ps: I also have a black nappa leather with jdm red stich center console cover from redline. Standard boot, no foam.

I'd like to get something for it, ~$20. Let me know via PM since we're not supposed to sell stuff outside of the BM. I just prefer to get rid of it locally vs having to go through the hassle of shipping. Thx! It's brand new, never used.
