Fucking sick

You definitely have to make it out to some meets this year.

Is that the Eclipse Double Din unit?

Also, how did you do the bottom grill? How is it held in?

Thanks, As long as they are on a sunday i would love to go. YEs it is the 2454 Nav unit. The bottom grill was a pain in the ass i cut out the bottom half of my old bumper so i could make a template out of cardboard then it was just alot of cutting and fitting. It is held on by two rivits, one on each side going into the factory horizontal section of the factory bumper.

genuine m5, replica?
did you heat it to bend it?
did you use 1 strip, 2 strips of 3m double sided? or did you use something stronger?

thx!

M3 Replica from e-bay, 1 piece of 3m double sided tape make sure you clean everything with preps all, heat the spoiler up really good (trunk too) And stick it on.

The hinges are about $1000, and then the labor to do it. The hinges are fo a 94- 96 accord and the need some modifications so the can just be bolted up.

Looks like water spots to me. Like a drip line down the edge of the wheel well.

It's a brand new paint job, I highly doubt its orange peel.

There is a blue CL-S with similar wheels and the TL kit. I believe it is located near Portland though.

Did all years of the CL have an option for the brushed aluminum look for interior accents...i thought it was only for 03. If i'm right..howw did you get that. I'm very interested in getting it to replace the fake wood. Dealer said door panel aluminum accent does not come alone..i have to buy the whole door panel?
Anyways your car looks great!

I took it all apart and painted it, it's a pain in the ass because there not meant to come of so you have to epoxy them back on.

There is no exact match because our dash is a really dark gray/black color so i took out the cluster trim and console peices and sprayed everything satin black with a spray dye made by SEM. It's meant for plastics and vinyl, You can get it at most autobody supply shops. I hate having none matching pieces! It looks stupid so i had to do everything.
