i like, but now you have a chance to get rid of the front piece and look for something not as bold and just not right looking, you know. and the dual exaust is kind of hidden, you should find a way to make that stand out a bit more. nice rims too. that last pic looks like its fake lol def use a digi next time

Couldn't agree more.

Thr rims might be ok but the tires are way too small. Personally, I'd throw the stockies back on if you have 'em. It would be an improvement...


Like All Mine said though... "It's your car"

I like the back bumper. But I think every1 agrees that the one in front should've never been there. Props for trying something new anyways.

Not tourists, that was the rice police. Def the wrong look for a CL, but props for trying something different.

Make sure to post pics of the new product.

I've seen that bumper on a 1995-1999 BMW 318 recently and I was laughing very hard at the dude who was driving that car. the ride was dark green and he had some yellow shit here and there, some kind of plastic pieces or stickers. can't remember now. that shit looked funny but I think the acura takes the prize

Change is good, anyway didn't you see the spy photo's, even if you wanted to keep the skirts and the back bumper the rj front bumper is way sicker than that evo thing. Whatever to each his own.
