Frustrated with my CL

MY 98 3.0
Please help, I have the following plans for my CL and need to know where to get this stuff and what is a good price.....

Front wheel bearings (making a whurring noise that sounds like monster truck tires)

Front grille would like to get a 97 grille with silver trim.(custom grill gone bad)

Need to know how much a timing belt is gonna be if i do it myself and what kind to get??? (Acura or aftermarket)

Also i would like to get another center console (wood grain) where the radio is so i can do some custom work for my v-afc....

Thanks for the info in advance....

another thing i want to do is get a spoiler, dont want the stock one, dont like the ricey type r wing....any suggestions??? I kind of like the mid wing on the new mazda6 Photoshops welcome

THanks guys and gals

Wheel bearings: [For the '97 the bearing assembly is pressed into the hub (which costs extra labor--the bearing is about $60 to $65 each.] For the '98 I don't believe it's pressed in, so no extra labor charge.


Complete '97 front grill: $100 (multiple pieces)



'98 woodgrain Console: $75.00


Timing Belt: $50 (plus you might as well change the Idler Timing Belt why you're at it -- $40.00).

Good luck!

When did you change your timing belt?

The manual says 60k if driven in extremely cold/hot weather. What if your car is not in extreme cold/hot weather and it's not being driven aggressively all the time?
