Removed the chrome insert, cut the A out of the stock emblem, painted and reassembled:
https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=184006

Here's what it looks like with the matching bottom grill/bumper inserts painted satin black too.


Thread on how I did the bumper inserts... Rondog and someone else did a similar thing way before I did so I can't call this my unique mod.

Aluminum moonroof.



Relooped the sterring rack. (No power steering, no lines, no pump)



Recaro with 5 point harness, and detachable momo steering wheel.



No more horns for me (never did need one for the track, nor is it my daily)



Shaved another 5 lbs cutting my hood.



The 30 lbs of tar I removed from the car.



The J35A4 short block with the J32A2 head and 6 speed lsd tranny (took the tranny off real quick to replace that clutch and a few other things). No A/C either.



The one and only to have done the swap in a 1st gen. Doesn't get any more rare than that.




I would like to say, there are a lot of 2nd gen's I haven't seen, and it's nice to finally get a chance to see them. Great job everyone.

Cocoa - I give you a ton of credit man. Maybe not the cleanest of all jobs, but def balls out. I noticed you said something the car is probably good for a low 13 off the n2o... i'd say it's good for mid 12s on a bad day.


Props to everyone who posted, I was afraid I would sweep up some stupid looking crap, but every single post so far has been tasteful and well done. Keep em coming.

Cocoa's mods are definitely focused toward a goal. Definitely a pioneer in building a CL track car.

I've seen it before but I forgot how slick that color matched grill is. I so wish the Type S came in that green, too.

Crappy pics, but I did the chrome horizontal bar mod in the lower grill last night and can't get over how well it matches the chrome horizontal in the regular grill.
