yea. from your sn and looks of it. im guessing you live in Torrance. lol i would spray paint the plywood black though.

web310

Yeahh you are right i am around that area and i wish there was more ppl with cls out here ive seen some around but they are stock they dont really fix them up and i was thinking of getting rid of that plywood i think im going to get that done once o get my paint job done.

ah i see. i remember there was another Cl in that area but i dunno if he still has the CL. Btw make sure you secure the grill very well on the CF hood, the nut stems aren't long enough to secure properly. my grill ripped off on the 605. lol

web310

im going to get the ebay grille i dont really like it i prefer the stock grille but it was hard to find and i probbly didnt have the right resources.. ohh well i got it already i am going to see if i could customize it probably put the acura logo in the middle see how that goes.
so you broke yours in the 605? where you stay at?

asianspec

iTrader: (1)

this is the most recent one i have. i haven't taken any in awhile. eyebrows, there are people before who used electrical tape for that. im not sure if dainfammus1 still has it.amber corners. pretty much the same way they blackhoused their headlamps. but use orange paint.

web310

straight from vis? btw get a car cover since they oxidize very quick.

Kyanite

When I got into an accident a while back, thats what stopped me from getting one. I coulda get the OEM hood brand new for like $400 or the ViS for like $450, but I didn't wanna deal with the oxidation possibility

Lookin good btw bro

web310

I got it from a company called unifide distributions is located in pico rivera ca..
The cf hood is vis tho. They got me the cf hood and the ww lip for $596 new
And if it does oxidize can i just polish it or buff it with a polisher?

asianspec

np.

depends how bad it gets. just save the hassle and buy the cover

web310

yeahh i am going to buy one thanks for the advice but now my radiator is messed up im getting it fixed tomorrow..
