Question Body kit and OEM Nose Mask

I was wondering if the Acura Full nose mask (top and bottom) will fit if I have the OEM body kit on my car?

Thanks!!

The one that goes on the hood will fit, but the other piece for front bumper won't. I asked the same question at Rallye and that's what they said. Besides, I think those things do more harm than good... I used to have one for my old car (94 bmw 328i) and I got a lot of swirl mark and fine scratches on my hood from it.

If I can recall the the Nose Mask will not fit if you have the front lip of the kit.

I agree with you, but I don't plan on keeping it on all the time. I want it for when I take road trips, especially through states that have a high bug population!!

If you use the tool on the Acura website to "build your own" it will tell you that the nose mask will not work with the body kit. Try selecting both options and it will give you the error.

I agree as well! BTW, do you have factory body kit on now or planning to get one? From the picture shown, doesn't appear to have one.

I wanna put OEM body kit on as well... I think they look sweeeet.

It ain't that expensive, I got mine installed for $440 and don't have to put up with the paint abuse. This included a bunch of custom work, I got the headlight kit, front bumper kit, had them wrap the side skirts of the body kit, the body kit behind the rear wheels, and any painted surface inside the wheel wells.
