Not bad, interior is a little worn, THE FRONT BUMPER LOOKS OFF and the front SUSPENSION sits higher than the rear, but it still looks OKAY

yes... but you forgot something... if you look at the pics carefully you will notice that the left headlight is starting to get hazy and in the last picture the right headlight is fogging up.

If you dont want coilovers, get the eibach pro kit. I have it, the front is a little bit higher also but not as noticeable as yours.

Or the silver trim on the dash.

And the front bumper actually looks ok, its the hood alignment that is off.

It might just be as simple as lowering the rubber bump stops on the radiator support on the passenger side. Someone may have raised it by accident.

Everything on your dash is aftermarket. And also on the door where the window switch is.

Yeah but the previous owner told me it was a special factory option... and i know i read it some places so i looked it up again and ive found a few sites saying that in 03 a new titanium trim was added... e.g.

http://autos.aol.com/cars-Acura-CL-2...expert-review/

I'm not trying to be a smarta** or anything but just stating what i think/thought... and i remember watching a clip of of one of ron jon's cl's 6 speeds and its steering wheel had a similar trim on it... hmm...? I don't know... anyone got some input?

Ronjon's steering wheel was custom made like that. I also have some silver trim in my interior and it's definitely aftermarket. I bought it like that and am not too fond of it.

oh okay... guess i was mistaken... pictures of yours so i can compare to mine... i never really minded mine... and the prev. owner who did the job did it pretty well than...can't complain... seems like many acurazine guys here aren't too fond of it but i know a few people who like it...each to there own i guess...

i have a pic in my build thread in the pictures section. I took off the little section where the drivers window controls are and it was 1. really hard to get off and 2. left a bit of a residue i can't seem to get off. I'm thinking about doing black di noc stuff everywhere.
