looks just right, drop, wheels and tint. I'm sure there will be others who agree, the TEIN Sticker kinda detracts from the car, it's too attention getting.

Very nice contrast, they actually look bigger than 18's. I agree with Rondy, that tein sticker is a no no, also, take off A C U R A and it will look so much cleaner

Thanks all..
Yeah...i wasn't so sure about the stickers...but...i got it when i purchased the springs...so...why not try it...won't hurt...But i think i'll take them off. Any tips on pealing window stickers?...so that i'm not leaving any mark on the window...

Also, any tips on Debadging the ACURA label?..

Oh Rondy, not sure if this ever happen to you. Your Servo wheels have small holes (like vent holes) in between the lugnuts (nice design BTW). Now, my my rotor hub (Factory) is kindda rusted (all 4 sides). So, after a car wash (or rainy day), some water went in the middle of the hub. So, when you start driving, this water (mix with rust....yellowish color ) start spitting out and sprays all over the wheels. Has this happen to anyone??...

I"m thiking of getting the new Slotted rotors from rotora...cause my wheels are always getting dirty from this water/rust mix spitting.... ....stinking RUST

Looks very nice! Sticker=
You can just pull the ACURA right off, or some people get floss and run it behind the letters, its up to you. either way will still leave sticky stuff on the paint, but you can just peel that off with your fingers.

Nice!

The sticker on the window can be scraped off with a razor blade. You won't hurt the window if you scrape from a tilted angle. Also, same as Stealth CL said about the badges except use heat. Either a blow dryer or heat gun will make it easier. Also some rubbing comound and then some wax will take off the sticky residue. Either that or a clay bar should work too.

Looks splended. Just remove that wind deflector, and you'll be set.

Yeah...i was thinking about that (wind deflector). But i was worried that since that thing has been there for about 2 1/2 years now (from the previous owner), if i take it off, there will me marking from where the plastic meets the car paint. ...

I'll give it a shot this summer

Servos are damn nice. I'm glad I chose them too.

The lines of the wheel go very well with the CL.

Hey, can someone who has some decent organization skills set up a list of NY, NJ and CT members so if we decide to have a meet, everyopne can be informed? there have been a few times that we've had meets and I didn't have the members numbers on hand.

and for those holes, those have been a problem before, but easilly resolved, just stuff the holse with some sort of latex or silicon, to0 plug them from the hub side, or from the face side, making sure you push the plug deep in to not show it. they are actually for alingment purposes and design as well.

For some reason, the Servo's only look good on the Anthracite's. They don't look good on any other colors. I wish they came in 19"s though.

Have you seen the one on Nitequill's CL?....i thought that was one of the sharpest looking wheel / Car color combo ever....looks very classy ...

But again, every person has different preferences ...this my second car with this color. I like it because it doesn't get dirty to easy...and the scratches doesn't really show on this color....
