How much did you pay for those? and if you don't mind where did you order them from?

I think the exhaust looks good and have thought of a similar set up my self but not top on my list.

not a fan of the single pipe. i think the double looks much more classy and powerful. But u know i like ur car alot lol the new lights look great!! definite good call. Have you thought about debadging the ACURA and getting tints? i think those things may be the finishing touches

im done with tint on cars. i had 15% and took it off and like the way my car looks better now and i like the "acura" on their better especially since everyone else debadges. i think without the "acura" the "A" sits too high up on the trunk and looks funny. i hope to see new shoes on urs soon

no ifs ands or buts, the '03 tails upgrade the 2nd gen CL's look CONSIDERABLY.


are you gonna tint the white portions a bit to match the dark theme your accessories give to ur car?

I redded out my tails completely. No pink, but they're 2001, and they look clean as HELL. I get compliments all the time from other Honda/Acura drivers.

Actualy i think it looks mad sweet, you shouldnt flame on someone whos spent so much money on a car that they charish, anyrate, the single exhaust is actually a very beneficial thing,

1. have 2 1/2 piping all the way back to one single can
2. MORE HORSEPOWER, LESS RESTRICTION
3. SINGLE COCKED EXHAUST FTW
