Still need to install that mesh grill to protect the condenser. Does that count?

Aside from that, and it's a dream and may stay there, but I'd like to design an aluminum flat undercarriage.

If you design that, make sure to include an easy-to-remove section when taking off the oil filter. WHAT A PIA!!!

Yeah, it would probably be a 6-pcs undercarriage that would have provisions for the diffuser.

It's an idea that dates back to when I had my Accord, but i'm sure it would benefit the TSX as well.

The worst problems to deal with would be where to direct the airflow under the hood without cutting a big piece out of the hood or overheating the engine...

Next mods will probably be speaker replacement, and some "clear bra" paint protectant. I don't see a point in even an intake mod, as long as I'm still in the break-in period. ;-)

I just got through with my recent "mod" -- chrome valve caps with a blue Acura symbol on! Not too noticable, actually...

About the underbody, I have read that you can make the car unstable at high speed with certain changes like that. I'd be careful....

Indeed, there is a way of designing it right. If I get around to it, I'll make sure to study it well before.

Tein SS then G Games wheels after winter is over. I figure my comptech setup will get me through winter and the stock tires should hold up until then. My ride is getting pretty bumpy with the stock shocks.

Got the car 4000 km ago (6 weeks ago).

Already installed a Comptech short shifter.

Just received my Injen CAI in the mail today (installing Friday evening).

Probably a comptech or Progress rear sway bar by late fall.

damn, modding a nice car is so addicting.

If I don't end up getting another S2K by winter, I'm getting a set of Basics. There's not much else I really want to do. I want to keep the car simple, comfortable, subtle, yet fun.

Just ordered my Ingalls camber kit that should be installed hopefully this week. Probably order the OEM body kit sometime this year. Get my M3 spoiler lip painted and put on whenever I find time.
