Me too, after driving around with the TL's nice blue gauges the last two weeks, I've had a craving for a more bright and distinct dash set up like the TL's, but like you said then the rest of the stuff wouldn't match.

Well...
I just got done with this today. Tell me what you think. I think it brings a little more punch to the interior. Can you spot it???
I did blue only because its going to look real good when I get my whole LED conversion to my dash like gaping46and2's setup done by him.
Still debating on doing the pieces circled in red.
I just thought the matching visors and home link would accent the black in there all ready. Did I F!@# my shit up or does it look alright? I like it but the verdict will be from you Azine.

The power side of things is run with a startup/shutdown controller so it comes on with the ignition and autmatically shuts down when I turn the car off.
I know there was a guy that did something similar, however i havent seen him on the boards in a few years.

how do you keep it cool, besides that processor fan? Is there something else helping with airflow?

Do you have a thread on this? I'd love to do it but I'm curious as to how hard it is, I've had my dash apart too many times!

My Contribution
Ok, I finally had some time today to post some of my "Rare or Unique mods" so here they are in order:
1st: This is a custom greeting/safety message that plays when I start the engine, I dont think that anyone has this in their CL, or maybe even in an Acura. I personally think it adds another dimension of luxury and sophistication, the voice also goes along perfectly with the navigation. See for yourself.....
Video 1
2nd: This is the sound of my CL-S, the only thing unique about this is probably the Short Ram Intake, other than that I have the XS Power Headers and magnaflow mufflers. See for yourself......
Video 2
3rd: My Custom grill, i guess this is a unique mod, Ive seen a few people with these, and made in different ways. My method took me 30min and about 5 dollars. See for yourself....
4th: I think this would be a rare mod, havent seen anyone do this. I put the "Bose" logo on my front speakers. No one sits in the back of my car, and the windows are tinted, so I decided to take the logo off from the back speakers and move them to the front. Looks 100x better
5th: My interior has some minor mods as well, including the AC vent handles, the stock ones are cheap, boring, and black plastic. So I decided to put some better ones on, you would pretty much see these on most of the newer cars.
6th: I installed a shift boot, I think the stock look is tacky looking, especially in an Acura. With the shift boot it makes it look more complete/luxurious, I got the idea from the Mercedes interior. And no, im not trying to make it look like a manual
Hope you all liked them!

I have the EXACT same message that plays when you start up the car with my radar detector. Had it on a previous model of radar detector too. Gets annoying over time. Wish there was a way to shut off the greeting.

Otherwise it pretty much gets rid of the wheel hop, better then the torque damper that I had in the back.
Would you like me to make a video of the engine movement perhaps?
