Thank you Raymond.

I did though about tinting the mirror signal but I changed my mind. Don't worry about UPS. No problem

Nope the muffler tips are not touching the spoiler but it look like from the angle of the photo.

Hi there! My nephew fixed it this past weekend. He bended the hooks a little and managed to bring it down a bit.

ichi d

poppintec

you have to paint the inner piece of the grill black and leave the top, bottom, and acura sign chrome it'll look so clean just my

Just waiting for my Teins coils to settle in to get a lignment and lower the car a bit.

I've to see that in photoshop but thank you for the suggestion.

ichi d

agreed it will match the lower part of the mugen grill.

Zelaya

Can someone with photoshop skills and help me with this. I'd like to see the inner part of the grill in matte black as Poppintec suggested. The top, lower trim chrome and Acura logo stay same

Thanks in advance.

Here you go Zelaya, fyi Im a graphic designer please feel free for anyone on here to request something. It's what I do for a living and I enjoy a good challenge. Lemme know if you need anything else.

Why not chrome? I'm not sure how to feel about the black at that angle. How about doing the black to your Avatar? Do you have a hi-res one he could mess with?

BTW, nice Photoshop job!

ojmcduffie

Yes a hood shot or farther distance shot would make it more noticeable.

Thanks btw.

Zelaya

I don't like it with chrome.

Thank you ojmcduffie for the help. Just send you a high res of my avatar photo. Let's see how it look from far away.

Dude paint it black. Its looks sick.

ABboy

Heyyyyyyy this car looks so familiar, lol. I bought Touges car a cpl years back. I see your mods are much the same and obviously I agree with your taste considering I bought his car. It's looking great.

ichi d

aboy start a new tread and post some pics up.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Will see. I'm also getting my Mugen kit re-painted again sometime in July to add more pearl to match with the rest of the car. Also I made need to paint the rear bumper after a lady engrave her tag bolts in my bumper last week luckily she didn't touch the rear spoiler.

Thank you.

100% agreed.

Maybe black on on certain part of the chrome trim. Thats what I did on my before.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Nah!! I keep the chrome intact. I'll wait and see how the inner part looks in matte black and go fron there. Sometimes doing a lot mods make the car look cheap and I always think on re selling and how that will effect future sale.

No need to paint it. Just use vinyl. Thats what I did. I'm going to matte black all the chrome on my TL next week and matte black the roof vinyl too. My coilover is in yesterday. So going to install it this weekend if I have time. I will post pic once everything is ok.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Vinyl on the roof, huh. Looking forward to see this. How much is this will cost? Have you install the work wheels on the new TL. You must have something under your sleeve that you're showing your new ride.

oo7spy

Not to antagonize you, but how do you know? Have you seen it?

Any word from OJ? He was so quick to post that other chop, he set my expectations for his diligence pretty high.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Here's an sample. Not my taste.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Nothing from OJ yet. I'm sure he's busy but I'm also curious to see the photoshop photo from a different angle.

KB1Spec

iTrader: (4)

I havent install the wheels yet. Looks dinky without the coilover installed.
My friend going to do all the matte black vinyl for me free he also did my tint. Actually I'm waiting for the release of the Ron Jon kit and then add some carbon fiber stuff onto it. So will show you some picture later on....

oo7spy

I can see why you don't like it. I was hoping for more of a match to the chrome immediately above the grill. That's seems pretty far off. Is that real or chopped?

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

It's real..... it's a Azect grill

ichi d

paint it black to match the lower grills.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Since ojmcduffie has been MIA I asked a friend of mine to do this for me. I'm not feeling the black roof but may consider the front grill.

RL Chi-town

how about painting the grill white to match the car? thats what i've been thinking of doing

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Nah! The inner part of my wheels are black which is the theme I'm looking for but keeping the look classy.

ichi d

im all for the blacked out grill, i think it looks fresh.

oo7spy

I like it better in that pick, but would like to see it head on. I don't think you would go wrong by doing it.

oo7spy

Sometimes if you want something done, you have to do it yourself. So here is my present to myself.



This was done with MSPaint in 10 min so don't criticize. Turns out I like it more than I thought.

Zelaya

iTrader: (1)

Thanks 007spy, You did great....I just have to find time to take the grill out and take to the bodyshop. Stayed tune

EL19

iTrader: (4)

Dam thats sweet!

RL Chi-town

why black.. and not white... i will be doing this but in white... i want to keep the VIP look. Maybe in black looks to Sporty... And our cars are not sporty...


What you think?



oo7spy can u do in white?

oo7spy

I actually used his grill from the bumper to do that. I didn't change any colors. If there is a white grill out there, I could work with it. You need Photoshop to change colors...
