Just installed my h&r springs. If anyone is looking for a set thmotorsports has a 25 percent discount on them now. I also put 09 rear sway bar on. Installed my arc shift knob. Oem mud guards oem window visors. No pics at the moment as the car is on jackstands. I sold my aspec wheels to member here and awaiting the 19s I ordered.

Ah, clean look with those ZDXs! Did you like the Aspecs better? I know you have newer wheels coming, just curious. How was the ride different?

I did like the mdx wheels better. The ride was harsher with 19s but from my perspective not too bad.

I've never seen one either til mine. Def happy with color choice over the black I saw. The black was nice but was neglected exteriorly. If that's a word. So I chose this one. At first meh. But after paint correction. I was in love.

So did my brake rotor and pad replacement. Ran into an issue with a rounded rear caliper bracket bolt. I had a friend who works at Firestone work some.magic and.get it out. Here's some random pics. I went with centric premium rotors with centric rear ceramic pads and ebc yellow race pads for the front. My car has 37k miles on it and the pads are 80 percent life at least and are on honda. I'm sure my crazy vibration was rear rotor because the front looks and.feels smooth.

I like the grill slats black like you have them, but I would keep the upper and lower trims un-dipped.
