Not again




Dude... unless you open up your Acura, take every part out that says Honda on it (and that's a lot, including the windows!) and reprint Acura on it... your Acura is made of Honda parts!

But really people... what's in a name That's all it is

Nice ride. Which car did you order those "H" center caps from ? Accord, prelude? I'd like to pick up a set for my stock wheels.

You're both right. It is certainly a Honda, but also an Acura.

Love the grille BTW.

Looks good. I don't really get the Honda conversion thing, seems like a waste of money, but the car looks good.

What suspension setup do you have? Nice drop.

Yeah I just got it last time I went to Vegas on March 3rd. It was the floor display model at the Wynn. I'm trying to get Rota to make wheels in the right offset for it but they said they can only make me a cheaper looking version of the stock Enzo wheel. Go figure.
