Wondering if this is stock or the previous owner effed it up? The red circles are nuts. The rest are bolts. I want to interchange the yellows to make the 8 bolts that are visible while the engine cover is installed all match. As one is a bolt and the other is a nut, this doesn't seem possible without removing the stud, which I'm only going to do if it came from the factory like that. Can anyone verify this on their vehicle? This is slowly killing the perfectionist inside me..






According to the parts catalog they are indeed different. http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...All&vinsrch=no

mine is like that too.

2 of them are studs so placement is easy. mine are the outer ones tho... not the 8 in the center

i'd change the one that's visible in ur case. if i were u lol... that's just my opinion tho

Thats how they are.
2 are studs with nuts the rest are bolts/screws.
The first time I saw mine I thought I had a jimmy rigged sh#$ box myself.

they could have done it differently on say the cl6 but but i doubt it.
