Thanks man. I'm debating a kit and removing the pinstripe and doing some lighting changes to it also to spice up the exterior a little bit. My fogs are yellow-looking and my headlights are xenon...

How much do those run / where would I find them?
It's the bass control knob for my RF amp.
I can adjust the gain on the amp through the knob...

i'm not sure what it's dropped with.. that was the only thing that was done to the car when i bought it in feb with 95,000 miles on it for 11 Grand... so I couldn't tell you... sorry
Can I actually look at the springs and be able to tell or no?

Swirl marks are the fine scratches you get from using poor quality drying towels and going through automatic car washes. They show especially bad on black cars, but any dark colored car will show them. Acura's clear coat seems to be pretty soft compared to the previous cars I've had.
And it'll probably be more than $75 for a full de-swirling, but its so worth it. Or you can buy some products and try to get them out yourself.

It was only like $120 at Circuit City. It's saved me at least twice, so it's more than paid for itself. If it saves you once, it's worth it, is the way I look at it. But they're not much good if you're all by yourself, because usually, he's already clocked you if you're in sight, and if you're the only car, you're pretty much screwed...

IN regards to removing swirls or any detailing for that matter, go to Autopia.org forums!! I have been on there for a few months and while spending all my money on damn car care products my CL has never looked so damn good!!! NXT seems to wear out pretty fast and only "hides" swirls temporary. Just wax your car with NXT EVERYDAY and you should be fine! jk
