TL and NSX
what up everyone, I just received my rims a few days ago, after waiting for over 6 months to get them. I finally got a chance to take some picture of my car and also my brother NSX. All comments are welcome!

Here are the pics so that people can view them easily. FYI in order to have the picture show in the thread, copy the url or link to the image and paste it between the following tags [IMG] [/IMG]

Oh and don't forget to update you sig. You have Angel eyes (or demon eyes or halos or what ever you want to call them), remember?

Looks smokin hot. What is the tire size and the offset on the rims. Is there any rubbing. Did you need to mod the body at all to fit these on the car. I plan on getting 18' this winter and the info would be great.

Your car is insane....I'm just not a fan of gold and black wheels. Your car is still one of the hottest out there though.....

Nice wheels bro!! i love the gold. yeah the LEs are hella tight!!! i wish i had the cash to spend on thoughs wheels. yeah that gold is the special color its like the "Top Secret 2001" special wheels. its the same type but the Top Secret is the TE37s. but the LEs are sick though. id say roughly $3500 for the set? if you were to look on www.importhookup.com they can probably get a deal for you but im not sure on the gold. thats a nice ride though.

I love that NSX. its my Dream to own it one day!! keep it up and keep it clean like how you do!!

I really like the gold wheels on your car.

I find it interesting when you consider the last 2nd gen TL was in 2003 and it makes the NSX look like some relic from the 80's (style wise).

Long live the TL!

Can't go wrong with Volks ... I'm sure you paid mint for special order rims. I wonder if the RBC (rays black chrome) TE37 would look like in person ... (not necessarily on WDP). Interesting ...

Nice pics. I thought about how feasible it would be to own an NSX but where I live, I'd have to have a winter beater. Not in the cards right now ...

Very unusual...
I think it's very unusual that this guy has a TL like mine (except mine is a '99) and I'm planning on repainting it from the dark emerald pearl to a white pearl (similar to his)....but here's the kicker....my father has a 1992 red NSX just like his brother!

Granted, we'll probably never see each other cuz we're stuck in the middle of the ocean.

Anyways, just thought I'd share the unusual coincidence....I guess once you become an Acura owner, it's hard to get away!

I like the gold on your WDP. I was thinking about gold gramlights on my WDP but they are way expensive. Plus I like the SSRs way too much to do anything else. But nice wheels and ride
