JNC..

to the headlights...I was planning on blacking them out....I am just trying to think how that woould look!

 

 

Very nice, overall was it easy to install?

 

^^ If you know your way around a few basic tools and can follow directions meticulously then yes it was a very easy install.

 

needs a drop.
and some bigger wheels.

 

Looks sweet!
Is that still stock suspension or A-Spec?

 

Car is going get tinted soon, once that's done we might drop it on A-spec suspension.

He is more than happy with the A-spec 18" since he drives almost 150 a day, I doubt he will opt for bigger wheels.

 

Oh man, that thing screams for some 22" floaters and a 3" drop! Yeah, and limo-tint!

Even without these necessary improvements, the car sure looks great in the photos. Nice work. I can't wait to see your photo-DIY if you produce one.

 

Looks great!

 

sweet and smooth.....

 

Noice job on the body kit.

I should have taken Blazing's advice and put an A-Spec body kit on my RL.....now I can't.

 

drop stat

 

can't wait for my coils

 

Was there any cutting involved? Particularly for the front valance? The fogs look different.


Do you have any pix of the installation in progress?

 

the front is a wrap on over kinda deal.... no cutting necessary..... unlike the 07+ type S front underbody spoiler where u have to remove the original lower grill....

 

How do the front and rear valances mount to the car? Both would cover some "bumper unpleasantries" (from backing into a stump, and curb scrape).

I really like the rear valance, and the front has grown on me.

Not sure about the side sills, though. Would the kit look weird without the side sills, no spoiler, and stock wheels? One would get to keep their splash guards by leaving the stock sills.

Do extend those tail-pipes!

Rob, I think you'd only keep the front splash guards. The rear ones conflict with the rear valance.

 

both the front and rear bumper needs to be cut in order to fit the lips

 

JnC when you modding the RLs headlights? The orange and such...

 

actually...Mine is not cut
just say sometime i decide to sell the car and take off the kits..thier wont be pieces of the bumper missing!

 

+1

 

What did u cut??? I don't remember any cutting involved in the underbody spoiler installation..... the rocker panel is a direct swap, the front and rear is the wrap on.....

 

well according to the acura installation guide, it said it needed to be cut, and thats what i did, jnc did you have to cut? i believe he did also.

 

Please make some angel eyes for me! I have one side of the headlights and need one more!

 

Hello JNC what is live cash back?
Thanks

 

that's got something to do with Windows Live.... I think if you search for item via Windows Live, you get some kinda discount on ebay....

 

^^ Indeed, it use to be a rebate and as much as 35% around xmas time but these days it fluctuates between low teens to hi teens.


As far as did I cut the bumpers to make the front lip and rear one fit then yes per the instructions.

The lips did indeed cover a bunch of small nicks and scratches that the bumpers had in the past.

I might trade my GS300 for an 06 WDP RL that my local Volvo dealer has, if that trade goes through then I might do the headlights as soon as within the next couple of weeks, otherwise we'd just have to wait till I get a set of headlights through ebay.

If any of you guys can ship your headlights in for the work then I can cut my labor in half for the first set i.e. instead of $150 to clear/black out I can do the first set for $75, PM me if anyone is interested.

 

tempting

 

very tempting

 

Is there a scan or link to the installation instructions for the kit?

 

JnC. if i do the headlights...do you have a bulb that is the color of the bulbs in teh headlights..to put in subsitution of the amber?...

I am just wondering how it would blacked out

 

PM sent .. I think the clearout will look SICK on the CSM RL!

but is it legal in MA?

 

i dont even thinks bother people with clear headlights

 

I can't ship my headlights cuz I need them to drive with at night, but I would pay 150 dollar rush charge and possible wait, since I'm down the street...

Also, yeah, I don't think PIGS will bother you much for having clear headlights... They don't harrass much unless you're lookin for trouble, IMO...

BTW JnC, replacing or extending those OEM tips??

 

I have a better idea, I'll call you later today to go over the details. Lets try to achieve the JDM headlight look without shelling out any extra money.

 

Do what b0n3 is doing, drop them off any given day and pick them up the next.

 

whatever you have in mind I'm sure it is awesome

call me whenever you get a chance .. I'd like to get out of doing yard work next weekend
