Talking can't wait to slap this on!!!

Got them in today ... Got the wheel Idea from a couple TL's Ive seen online and in Terdbaths ride...Didn't want to go too agressive so I think I found the perfect rims...took the conservative specs 18x8 +30

On the way are my tires should be coming Monday and my Megans in about a week...and muteki neo chrome lugs....Spring time!!!

Thanks flip yeah love your setup too rj legends was def in the list but just too flashy for me and I got to be careful with my color hard to match it...

still too early to plan no? in any case, it might be a bit hectic for a bunch of us to get together and go cuz people might wanna do other things. killerg suggested people going on their own or meeting with a couple aziners and then meeting up after the show to grab some grub. i was gonna make a thread once it got closer

My advice is to not post pics until the car is dropped. Heck, I personally would never even be caught dead driving around with aftermarket rims if the car wasn't dropped.

That's a nice look though, I was contemplating some Advan T7s a while back.

Yeah It's a nice subtle change, just wanted to have it almost stock look...really classy rims plus $650 shipped, which was shipped in 3 days can't beat it!!!

ummm...yeah debating back and forth back forth install don't install...it's just sitting in my room... I think I'm going to install them just to see how they look coils are coming in about a month thats like a two week window where I have to just suck it up and go 4x4 status

Fine fine...Im also finishing up the deal with Terdbath about his C-Mod grille..lets see how that will look after I vinyl it and try to hopefully make it sit flush...

Lol I will have 4 set of grill

- One messed up stock one that is on the car now
- I bought a OEM STYLED -grille 2 pieces the mesh and lower molding non chrome blade that I spent $250 too lazy too install
- C-Mod Grille coming from Terbath
- ATLP grille once I get my bonus at the end of March


...LOL actually Im willing to sell the OEM styled Grille use it to fund my ATLP Grille

lol sorry Killer...dont rape me!!! Im at work and typing kind of quick here is a beter explanation


Its our OEM grille ( Grille comes in three pieces- the Mesh, the lowering moulding and the chrome blade)

I have the Mesh and the lower moulding... I dont have the chrome blade hence the non -chrome- part

OEM style because it's not made by ACURA but fitment is perfect including all the tabs--its replica basically but fits perfect

...better explanation
