Looks good. I wish I had nice new paint :'(

I'd take off that Acura sticker tho, it would look alot cleaner. It is your car tho, so if you really like it keep it.

hi, very nice ride...

thanks

Looks great! Cant wait to see that drop. By the way, I think the ACURA sticker isnt that bad at all. Kinda looks good on your car for some reason. Wouldnt on mine....Good Job!

Van-CL - I just took apart the upper grill and removed it form the hood...(theres like 4 screws...not hard at all..) and got some mesh and cut it to fit and then screwed the grill backed together but with the mesh in the middle so it shows like u see it...kinda hard to explane but very easy and different lookin....sometimes i think about switchin back to stock...i donno....i would do a lower grill with mesh but it seems to be waayyy too much mesh....some people can pull it off though.....



jasshopper - yea i love it...i wanted to keep the stock OEM exhaust dual outlet look (didnt want to go with a single can) but i wanted an aftermarket exhaust system that sounded different and better...i just went to a local performance shop and saw the banzi and the tusudo and picked the banzi cuz it had a rolled lip and looked more round to fit the CL look...i love the sound...its like a low hum....nits not a loud winey noise but it is loud...ive gotten used to it so i like never pay attention to it anymore but once my friend drove it down the street and i heard it like mile away...but yea, i love it...its loud and low hum...

(u know if theres any way or how i can get an audio file on here?? i mean i could somehow tape the sound and then make it into a audio file and send it to ya...but i donno how to do that..lol...)

Dude, I love the paintjob, except for the hood. What is up with the swirl marks. You guys may not be able to see it in the pictures, but in person, there are lots and lots and lots of swirl marks on the hood. Last time we talked you said that they werent going to fix it. Did you get it fixed? Other than that the car looks great, exceptfor those big labels on your windshield
