Fix to - Front End "Shake"/"wobble" upon acceleration

Since I have owned my 03 Acura CL-S, I have had this front end shake that would be most predominant upon acceleration between 50 and 60 mph. I could almost always feel it and it would get worse with the harder the acceleration.

So, I checked plays in the wheels, all good.. Thanks to this forum, I learned that it is almost always the CV Axles.. Now, thread after thread, reply after reply, I would get more and more confused. So, I am here to say -

I bought brand new cv axles from Advance Auto and installed them tonight... NO MORE SHAKE! Fixed, DONE! Soo... anybody that may be in my once confused state, I did it on a limb to help everyone else.. Do it and you will be pleased! My once death-trap feeling car now rides just as smooth as a hot knife through butter and I am stoked!

Are those the GSP ones?
The only problem with those are they don't have the balance weight like the stock does & they are prone to wearing out in 30K or so miles.
