i dunno if there is any damage but if you look at his pics, you will see that its all driver side shots. from that day.

i would have loved to have your hood and front bumper. i would love to do that conversion somewhere down the road.
Get CL-S6 RSB too... Nice upgrade for a low price. $40 bux I think.

ill probably eventually get the 04+ TL 6spd RSB. its the thickest OEM sway bar i could get. idk why people waste their money on CT Engineering (Comptech) when the best OEM one is like - 2mm thinner.

Yes I worked for them here as as well. They continue to give me cost for parts. I was unaware. That progress rsb seems nice. I bet if u offered him 25 bux he'll take it...lol. He keeps bumping...

finally found an 05-06 RSX-S muffler. im gonna clean it up and take some pictures of it tomorrow.

gonna go get qoutes from a few shops and see how much it will run me to mount it and run custom 2.25" piping from the cat back.

contemplating whether or not im gonna run resonators or not.

I'd run at least 1 resonator or both to keep sound smooth but also do hi-flow cat. that should yield a decent gain... Are you going to do header? 80buck ebay set or Megan Racing maybe? Would def complete the exhaust flow. Are you running or doing an intake?

40 bux http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-02...Q5fAccessories


Megan $119


Just helping a tad. I know you don't plan on spending a lot on the car but just showing the options i happened to fine .

i was thinking about doing a cheapo header, hi-flow cat, and this exhaust setup all in one shot but i might just wait and do that stuff later.

no intake. i was gonna do a Prelude Type-S airbox and piping but its too much money and might not fit. i was also ready to pull the trigger on a FEEL's intake arm for a JDM CF4 Accord but these 3 reasons made me decline.

1. FEEL's is an OG japanese tuning company thats claim to fame twin cam tuning which is kinda sacrilege since i have a usdm f23.

2. no FEEL's filter

3. sticker wasnt in the best shape.

They used to be I'll agree. Some companies do change because companies know especially in this market that you better put out quality things or go out of business. Their quality assurance has gotten better.
