I just looked and he doesn't have any listed like mine but here is a link http://motors.shop.ebay.com/magautop...911.m270.l1313 If you keep looking you will see him post a red one for 97-99 Acura Cl's and it will be 79.99 with free shipping. That is if you don't mind the painting process. If you do, then I would get one that matches your car
Thanks but I went ahead and ordered the used black spoiler. The seller also included the proper bolts to my surprise.

Gonna' debadge it shortly..D2's and 18" XXR 962's will be ordered once my tax return arrives

Exact wheels and suspension I got

Cheap wheels IMO, but they look great for the price. I've had em for about 8 months now, I love em, and so do the ladies lmao.

Seeing the 962's on your car is what inspired me to take interest in them lol..How are the D2's holding up in the cold weather?

If only you saw the originator of the 962s.. But it's always good to have inspiration IMO I would say to look into other wheels no need to swagger jack haha

Thanks bro.
Ride is great, and they are holding up nicely, no problems whatsoever. Not sure about other sets of coils, but I remember reading these are Teflon-Coated to prevent things such as oxidation during the cold/wet weather.
They're great coilovers for the price, and as I stated before the wheels are as well.

And Tak, Jared is definitely the one who got me hooked on em in the first place. Pretty sure he wasn't the originator, but most definitely the one who rocked em the best.

Not a CL, but had to share

Picked up some WeatherTech Digital Fit Floor Liners for my 4Runner, and they are simply baller. I wore a hole through 2 pairs of Toyota OEM floormats, and never thought I'd spend $200 on a set of floor mats, but after spending $80 twice on OEM, I simply couldn't bear to spend more money on anything else. These floormats are the best I've ever seen, and wrap every inch and corner of the floor perfectly. They also have a lip all the way around to keep the water and shit from getting on the carpet underneath, the hole in my drivers floormat let everything run right off my shoes down onto the carpet underneath which I couldn't stand. If you drive your CL in winter, or even where it rains a lot, you definitely should look into a set of these. My CL doesn't see rain or snow, and I still think I'm going to pick up a set of these, just because they are such high quality and fit so perfectly. Here's a few pics

Front Driver's Side






Rear seat liner goes all the way across

Might get some of those for the M3 since the CL never sees bad weather.

They dont make them for the CL I had to settle for their all weather mats. But the drivers side one isn't big enough on the side so it slips because there is a gap between the trunk release and the hood release

That sucks, when I was messing around on their site, I got the impression that they did make them for the CL, but since I wasn't ordering for that car, I never went all the way, that really sucks.

That's what I have minus the trunk mat. Which I really should get actually. The water from my snow brush plus the sand in the summer will kill the back carpet

Replaced my timing belt, balance shaft belt, water pump, valve cover gasket, seprentine belt, idler tensioner pulley, cam shaft seal, crank shaft seal, balance shaft seal, oil pump drive seal, Sway bar end links, upper control arms and ball joints, oil pan gasket, distributor o-ring, both O2 sensors, plugs, cap, wires, rotor, pcv valve. Been neglecting the car for a while but felt it was time considering daily work commute is 165 miles round trip...

i didnt have the tool either...a ratchet with a small extension worked for me. it provided the right angle and leverage to get em in there. i had to spend ab an hour in the trunk w a flashlight...but worth it in my opinion

did some work on her today, notice how she's all blocked in, but this isn't so bad, it's already melted quite a bit here recently, there used to be a foot drift on the roof and barely recognizable under the snow



took the rack off

Been awhile, but I've been DD'ing the CL this week, and plan to continue to for the next couple weeks. Now, if I could just figure out why it's sucking so much gas (haven't opened anything up yet, just annoyed with it) then things will be golden. I'm used to the celica, where a tank lasts a week, whereas the CL, a tank lasts 4 days

replaced the front pads, need to do something with the rotors, they are warped, but to lazy (broke) to do the conversion to rotor over hub. And dont want to spend the money to get new ones pressed in.

Got my CV boot fixed again. Just got a nice job... I think it's time to move on from the CL. May part out or sell whole.
