CF splitters installed!

Results speak for themselves. Only catch is you need to be careful when dealing with CFs, as they are very brittle. But once installed, I couldn't be happier. As you can tell in the pics, I also installed 7-color LED underbody lights. I'll post some better night time pics later on

hey Steve, do you notice any performance increase w/ the splitters or are they just cosmetic?

Tatewaki,

Great job with the CF splitters! Was it hard to install? Or did Jacky help you? Haha -- you can see your reflection in the 2nd photo. Guess I'll have to see it for myself at the next meet (whenever that is).

The sexiest part I like is how you replaced the "Mugen" with "Acura". I always thought the duckbill grill was ugly...but now you've changed my mind.

Thanks for all the comments I got them from another member hobes. Not sure where he got them, but he didn't want them so he sold them to me.

Install was not hard, just takes patience. CF is brittle so you need to go easy while drilling. If you drill too fast or the holes are too close to each other, the whole thing will crack apart. They are held onto the front lip with 3 screws and a layer of emblum tape
