whats up everyone, i saw a 99CL premium and the wood on the cdenter console blew my mind. I know this piece would look dope in my car, and it looks to be the same shape as the gray plastic i have now....anybody know if itll be an easy swap?

'97's have a little different of a console compared to the '98/'99's, I don't know if what you're talking about will fit properly.
They do make wood trim kits for the '97's.

know where could i find something like that?

You can buy the "wood" center piece from Acura. They sold it as an option. http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/...IES+-+INTERIOR Product #6551 $57.12 + shipping

However, I would recommend getting an entire wood kit. It will give you much more "wood" than just the center piece. http://www.autoanything.com/dashkits/default.asp $145.95 (free shipping)

Someone on here has replaced the center of their 97 with the 99 I have taken the console out and its not that hard, im guessing the swap would be fairly str8 forward or you could do the wood trim suggested by dusterbuster. I have a similar wood kit, click the link in my sig for a pic

wow.. 1stgencl.. just saw u have 212K miles on your car?.. no problems?.. hows the tranny?

Works great! So far I've carved over 2 seconds off the 1/4 mile (with more to come).

I am concerned that the tranny will give out much sooner than it would have without the N2O.
