Pretty fucking cheap oem part mod too if I must say!!

Honda Automotive Parts
You'll need the two little brackets (#3) as well. The screws (#6) should come with #3 or you can probably reuse the Acura ones although they're just slightly different lengths.

daym.. guess that's worse than my mom flipping my oem wheel over when I was putting on my summer wheels lol. It's okay... I've gotten over it. You will soon too

lol my dad did the opposite to my 2G TL. So my driveway is kind of a sideways T shape. Going straight is the garage, and perpendicular to it on the right hand side is a mini driveway where the other car is parked. So to back into the outdoor spot, I get real close to the left hand side of the garage door so that with this angle I can get into that mini driveway spot in 1 shot. Coincidentally, when I got to the left hand side of the garage door (I'm really close to the door at this point), before I could put her in reverse my dad opens the garage door and the door swings out and hits the front of the car. Guess that's why you don't get garage doors that swing slightly outward when opening...

Finally found the part # for the SE wheels if anyone's interested:

42700-TL2-A70

Either have to order a new one or get mine repaired. Got quoted $150 for the repair which I think I'll do.

Damn that's fucked up badly. 150 is a good price though.

Ya it covers like 40% of wheel lol.. It seems like they charge $150 no matter how much it's curbed. Apparently it's not that difficult for them to repair these. I just want it to look like new or I'll just buy a new one.

I think the low-end to mid HP/TQ curves favour the CU2. But yeah the CL9 is 205HP at 7K RPM. And iCrap is right, CU2 is fat lol.

$150 is a good price. But don't bother if your mom is gonna drive your car again LOL. With a curb that bad, looks like it's gonna happen again in the near future. I wouldn't buy a new wheel... OEM wheels are not cheap unless you buy used. Might as well put that money towards something else.

I think they're all 2015's.


Im in the oil industry and I'm not ballin'

P.s. OPEC FORCED oil barrel prices down.
that's why we're seeing low gas prices at the pump.
however; its not good for business.

Why would opec want prices to be down? Wouldn't they want to raise it so they make more $$$?

Because U.S. started Fracking. we started to find our own oil and not depend on others.

with the oil barrels down, it no longer makes sense to Frack, as its expensive.

so basically, they lower prices short term for LONG term gain.

it cost Saudi Arabia 2 dollars a barrel.

it cost what in the US......maybe 40-50.

they figure eventually they will win.

or cause a recession here.

but in further digging their true cost is much higher cause they need to keep all the minions happy with free stuff and pensions and the good life.
