Thanks. Actually I got tint done today 50% front 40% back but when I put up the Shades in the back on the sides it looks like 30% tint. I'm trying to avoid getting tickets. Minnesota law is 50% all around. Tomorrow Im getting the rims put on and I'll put up shit load of pictures for u guys.
Next thing is gonna be h&r hopefully let's see if it needs lowering.
Aem intake- anyone know where I can find it?
Aspec underbody

U must be mentally retarded. Straight up to me this looks nice. Luxury to me is a BMW Mercedes. This is just a average car with black m5 stock rims not 24" chrome rims those are ghetto. If you don't like it who gives a shit!

Looks okay. I think gloss black would've been a better alternative. Since matte black usually goes on sporty vehicles, which the RL is not, the rim color choice looks out of place. If you get the drop and a body kit it would work better. Its not like these rims aren't a proven good match for this car, its been done on the RL at least three other times and looked good. You just need to either go sporty all around or get them powder coated a classier color.

Thanks for the photos, I may get these same rims in silver (non-staggered) for my Celestial '06. While they are heavy, I like the look and the price is really good.
Rims are like speakers, If they sound/look good to you, that's all that matters.
So what does your dad think of the changes?

If YOU like it, that is all that matters. I was just giving my opinion while trying not to be rude, which is what you are asking for by posting pics. If they really do suit your taste, then I say more power to you. Hopefully you get more approval with the other mods you have planned.

You didn't miss anything. Daddy bought him a blue RL. He thought black matte BMW knockoffs would look sweet. So did all of us when they were OFF the car. He put them on the car and we said, "looks like
!" He cried, deleted the pics, and never came back. This thread can be locked at any time now.

Stop bitchin and moanin oo7spy
. everyone else my bad. i decided to put better pictures up with a sony instead of my phone. so i deleted the whole album but summer flew buy traveling and shit. i got pictures but i will get more only thing i did was acura logo on the rims. i wasnt expecting them to be that small but it works until i paint rim cap black .
As for upgrades i want to buy h&r and aspec kit all around im lookin to buy so let me know people.
Anyone know if ill have a problem after i install h&r becuz my tires rub when im taking a turn but with 5 people in the car.
MOD EDIT-PICTURES REMOVED
Does really look that bad people? I seem to like it i get alot of complements on the car. Plus after the aspec kit and h&r it would stand out more.

Well you get compliments b/c the ppl in Minnesota are nice. But i know for a fact that it doesn't look nice. But its your car you mod it to where you like... I think its to dark, i think the car doesn't flow well with the set up.
Seriously though this is how i think you should have gone about your wheel set up. First should have figured out what kind of suspension you wanted. once you buy your Springs or Coils then should have bought your wheels. but thats just me.
Overall OP good luck... And say to hi

HAHAHA! Que grande cojones tienes guey! I respect that attitude. If that's what you like, fuck the detractors.
As for the suspension, I would say if you are rubbing now, it will only get worse with a drop. H&R especially because you will be keeping the soft OEM struts and dropping 1.5". The ASpec setup would probably be better b/c of the stiffer struts and only 1" or so drop.
BTW, in case your Spanish is muy malo, that was a compliment.
