Does anyone have secrets or common knowledege about what you can do to your CL without actually purchasing something thats pre-fabricated and pricey??

ie is there a way to clear out the amber part of the headlights without buying JDM spec lights???

anything else you have done or seen??

 

Free - Clear headlights (search), Debadge trunk, custom grill,

A Few Bucks - add a high flow filter to the factory intake, clear led spoiler, change foglight bulb and interior,remove resonator, Autovation Pedals..

All I can think of for now..

 

Running deisel adds 30 whp

 

you can't buy JDM Spec lights, all the people that clear them out do it themselves. heat the light up, pull the silicone apart, pull out the amber piece, silicone back together.


What other things are you looking for. Most cheap/free mods do more damage then good when it comes to performance

 

 

CLPower, I think he's just looking for a project or two to work on..

 

running deisel???? im not an asshole
thanks for the tip...

 

He's joking around take it easy...

 

 

Eeeks.. Dude seriously take it easy..

 

I actually have two friends that have put diesel in their cars already. After the first i died laughing but when the second one did it, i was like wtf how do you do that

 

sorry jts1207....
just for that i'll give you a tip...
if your computer everlags from lack of RAM, a fast way to clear up the memory is by holding ALT and pressing F4... you should try it

 

He's cheap...and obnoxious. j/k!!
I know some cheap mods but wonder what you'll do if you don't like em.
Oh well. I assume you have an 03 6 speed.
I covered the amber diffusers with tint, they look less yellow.
Install silver or silverstar brand bulbs for the front turns, look silver, but burn amber.
Tint the white tails.
You can upgrade interior bulbs to whiter bulbs than the stock yellowish bulbs.
You can upgrade hi-beams with whiter bulbs.
Change out the shift knob to a heavier, shorter one for quicker shifts. I like the S2000/TSX knobs.
Claybar, good wax and polish, microfiber towels for drying and buffing.
Did my best. good luck.

 

where can i get a clear LED cover for my spoiler?

 

Remeber there are two types.. Factory and aftermarket and they are different sizes..

www.spoilerdepot.com I think, if I remember correctly..

 

Looks like i'm wrong, try searching..

 

Nowhere on search, and by the way i have a first gen

 

Oh, why didn't you say so.. Ask the 1st gen'ers. I don't know what's available for your car.

 

because no one really knows either, and i think the spoilers are similar, or at leats that led part seems similar

 

cut the springs.

 

hey -- do know what bulb/size? I just put PIAAs in as driving lights and they look so much better that now the pissy yellow hi beams are starting to bother me...

 

check out www.superbrightleds.com

i upgraded my whole interior lighting for like $35 and it looks very nice

 

I used Sylvania Silverstar bulbs in my high beams. I think the number is 4006?
They are brighter than stock, and whiter, but are not as white as I wanted, don't know if there is anything better.

 

these add a couple of horsies

 

Anyone with a 2nd gen CL actually done that so far?

 

Best free mod ever. Stock ride, performance looks. I recommend at least 4 coils for that sporty look.

 

thanks 123456speed...

 

cutting the spring is stupid ass fuck

 

this guy sounds like a talon enthusiast. Free mods is everything.

 

I wondering the same thing. There are tons for the Camaross

 

I cut my springs when I first bought my car. Of course, everyone on here made it out like I had just done the worst thing imaginable. If you cut the bumpstop down, it'll ride excellent. Mine rode great. I even had a member of Acura-CL.com ride in my car to show him how well it rode, and he agreed...matter of fact, he even ended up cutting a coil off his OE's afterwards.

My friend bought an NSX about 2 months ago that came lowered. It rode so stiff he couldn't deal with it any more...so he bought some stock springs and cut them. Now it rides almost like stock and sports a lowered look.

I'll agree, cut stock springs may not have the same performance benifits as a lowering spring, but the difference isn't really too noticable. They do however ride smoother on our particular car, as with many dual wishbone style suspensions, and the mod is free.
