Well my girlfriend hit my car about a month ago and tore the driver side up pretty bad. Then I was driving home from work 2 days later (usually I dont drive the car during the week im trying to build it for shows, I have an old q45 I drive to work) anyway some idiot with a pickup is going down I4 with it loaded w wood and tree branches and crap. to make a long story short the guy in front of me sees the shit in the street and swerves out of the way and I hit it and bent both rims on the passenger side of the car and blew out the tires. so I just got it back had the rims straightened best they could. and im pretty happy. check out my pics and let me know what you think. Thanks

That's some bad luck for not driving it often.

But damn nice, it's always cool to see a PDG with a bodykit. I see you blacked your headlights out too, I was planning on doing that next week, heh.

 

wheree did you get the engine covers made? I want one!

 

Nice to see your car again. 'Grats on getting it back.

 

Love the grill man. Remember me, I was the other CL at HIN. I'm about to do that carbon fiber stuff i asked you about.

 

thanks guys. I actually have all the plastic covers under the hood done in carbon fiber. i did them myself i used to do custom carbon fiber overlaying before i started my new job. i did full carbon fiber door panels and center console on my 99 eclipse. I will sell mine or I can make you one if you send me your stock pieces, Its a bit expensive but im the only one w that engine cover as far as I know you cant buy it anywhere. Pm me if your interested

 

I had mine done on my little CL-P by a place called 'exoticwooddash.com' . I think I got ripped off...paid about $350 and it's just a synthetic wrap over the existing pieces. It looks great though.

 

I see you got the aem brake kit, is that the kit for the accord? Nice looking car by the way.

 

i have a 7 yard roll of 12k 2x2 cloth, but when i was experimenting with a few small pieces (back speaker cover where 3rd brake light is) and (rear storage counsel) it didn't come out right, the epoxy didnt cure right, and looked ugly, where did you get your epoxy? whats it called.. and the ratio.. i was planning to do all my plastic pieces also.. but looks like you have the hang of it, if you are willing to cure some pieces for me, id be willing to ship you my cf, and the parts, depends how much you want though.. maybe you can just give me a few pointers.. i dont have a vaccum bag or anything, i just tried doing the brush technique...

 

just some pics of my car that i took w/ my phone.. i have a hood, and interior pieces in cf also

 

i want to get my top of imrc? thing powdercoated, but in black chrome.. how much do those run?

 

badass ride!!!like the body kit

 

350 to 400 is normal if its a real carbon fiber overlaying if not its a little too much. your mostly paying for labor. yes its the 99 accord aem big brake kit. and as for doing it yourself I use brushes and stuff no vacume sealer I work out of my garage. Its all technique and a LOT of time. ANYTHING custom will cost you, its the price you pay to be unique. The chrome intake cover is hot i want one of those.

 

I'm assuming you mean the intake manifold cover... The plastic cover can't be powedercoated but I suppose the intank manifold itself could be.

 

I've never seen a 2nd Gen CL with the AEM BBK. How is it? More pics please! Especially of the rear. Does it require any modifications?

 

that much for a engine cover? i'll pass, i didn't even pay that much for my trunk when we first got it customized.. maybe you can point me in the right direction to getting some quality epoxy, and help me out on the technique part with a few pointers, i am a diy type of person anyway, plus i spent hundreds on these materials that i should put to use

 

uh yeah, he has his chromed.. i wasnt talking about the plastic..

 

the bbk was for an accord i love it but you have to remove the e-brakes from the rears

 

Oh... removing the e-brake isn't an option for me.

 

i love the grill! How did you make it deep dish?

 

Even though I have an auto, I park on hills too much not to use my e-brake.

lovely! uhmmmmm!

 

yeah i was a little nervous at first but no big hills in fl so im straight. as far as the grill I cut the original apart bondo, fiberglass resin then overlay w carbon fiber, and mesh the back. I didnt like it at first but its grown on me. I have the original "wings" that go in the center of the stock grill overlayed in carbon fiber if anyone wants to buy them for a stock grill. pm me .

 

bump

 

damn, that thing looks hot!

 

I've seen you driving around before, at first I thought you were Acura-JL, but noticed it was different. I wanna say I saw your car up in Sanford/Longwood I could very well be wrong.

 

Its quite possible you saw me there I work in downtown orlando. I wanna say thanks for all the love I have gotten from everyone. I had an eclipse and on the mitsu site I was on everyone dogged everyone.

 

That whip is real sick kid!!!

 

ACURA-JL has one of the hottest acuras ever. that was the first crazy ass pdg I had ever seen. MUCH props to that car, though im not sure if its still around.

 

Last time I talked to him he still had it. He never really drove it much though, mostly uses a motorcycle.

 

w all that money in stereo ,i wouldnt drive it much either i think I used to see it only at car shows

 

Looks good, I just hate the front bumper of that kit.

 

sic cl... judging from you avator, your cl is pretty sick. Are you planning on attending nopi nationals this year?

 

yeah sic is the name of my car club, Strictly Intense Concepts. Im not trying to sound cocky or anything. Im trying my best to go to nopi but I wont know anything for sure till later this month. Im trying to get everything done by then.

 

What all do you have done to it?

You should definitely try to make it to nopi. The classes for acuras have been broken down this year. Only the TLs, CLs, and Vigors are in the same class. Last year it was RLs, TLs, CLs, Legends, Vigors, TSXs all in the same class.

 

Sweet looking ride dude. How much would it cost to have that CF done?

 

that's a cleeeeeeeeeeeean ride. Looks nice.

 

thanks for the love. Im gonna try my damnest to get to nopi

 

Hey man. It's the dude you met at HIN, in line. haha. Anyway, you better get your ass upto NOPI this year. How much would it cost to have you do some CF work on my POS?
