The car looks awesome!

Are you going to add the Mugen deck spoiler? I think that would complete the whole package.

what kind/size wheels are those?
what suspension?
how much does it cost to get that kit and have it installed...the mugen kit clearly looks better than the OEM aspec, but you can ge tan OEM aspec, painted, for probably $1200 in parts...then just bolt it on...i'm guessing the mugen kit is 2-3x that once you get it installed/painted.... but i have no real clue on pricing....

that RL looks absolutely gorgeous. black ones look so amazing when done up right..

only thing I hate about black is it looks good for an hour after you clean it..then the dust settles on it and it looks dirty. my "toy" car roadster is ocean blue metallic and it's very dark in dim light...it has the same "gets dirty instantly" problem that black has...

once again - your car looks GREAT!

I don't think I'm going to add the deck spoiler. I just don't really like it, for some reason.

The wheels are 19" Linea Corse LeMans. I have H&R sports springs. The kit cost about $3200, paint and install cost about $1400

this car is ridiculously beautiful.

sick wheel choice too. it gives the car a real classy, clean, old school look to it. two thumbs up

I think ditching the amber reflectors should be your next goal.

Thats the crash avoidance sensor behind the plastic.



Car looks awsome. I too like spoilerless look with the kit. It kinda gives a nice muscular look to it.

How much do your wheels weigh?

Yeah, that's the Collision Mitigation Braking System: http://www.acura.com/Features.aspx?m...braking_system

I don't know the weight of the wheels.

Once again, thanks for all the comments!

That looks great. Costly but you definitely spent the money in the right place.

How could I miss this?

That is HOT. Very expensive, though, which is why I never did it while I owned my RL.

I completely agree with you. I'm planning on getting 20" Work VS-XXs with low-profile tires. Thinking about going staggered. Also getting coilovers and JDM headlights soon. Here's what it would look like (but with a wider lip):

Got the body kit painted and installed at a place called M&S Collision in Milpitas.
