Spring cleaning for the Acura! Rims swapped

Damn nice day outside... spent the many many hours outside washing, claying, and putting that meguiar's 3 step process and here are the results!!

Oh yeah a tire rotation and swapped some rims just to see how they look!

Now our arms are like noodles.

Mad props to you, dude. I helped a friend do the Meguiar's 3 step process. That takes HOURS to complete. You deserve an award to get that done. Looking good.

(I'll stick to Zaino ... way easier and I can't see a difference VS Meguair's 3 step).

Nice shit man, I think your friend with the RSX might live in my neighborhood.

I see you live by Seaview Avenue, I live in Mill Basin/Bergen Beach. We should meet up one day and just check out each other's cars or whatever. Peace.

At least you can say "our" arms were tired. I have to do all this $hit by myself.

I actually like the look of those RSX rims on the TL. Not bad at all.

1 set of arms per car so still bout the same work. The RSX rims are a little smaller than the TLs so it the gap is a bit bigger.

When I first looked at the RSX with TL-S wheels, it looked like a chevy cavalier? Anyone agree?
