I was just about to order the resistors..so when you got your DRL LED it only came with 1? or how many since you said the DRL still displays error it's kind of annoying that it pops up

I'm a broke ass HS student LOL and K-Sport recently made coils for the 95-98 Odyssey so that's on my list. I'll most likely drop the van before the TSX since parents are anal about the little things I do to it already also need to replace the rack and pinion on it as well so yeah... should be fun.... lol

One thing is the dude is a dick. My bumper had some imperfections and yours will also. He will brush it off like there is nothing wrong. He's very slick emailed back and fourth. I want to warn you brother in case yours comes all screwed up. Try to get a better deal than me.

I believe it's an item that Acura couldn't not self because of light damage from the factory. Nothing salvaged or hit.

Ahh touche....I'll keep this link in mind...maybe an xmas pressent to the car. Mind you for a bumper to have that much scuffs and scratches, the handler must have been clumsy as fuck.

When I see the see the two scratches I kinda get mad at myself for buying the bumper. But a buffer and some compound should help. Lol just gonna have to work with it a little.

Pretty easy install.. Rear bumper is not hard to get out. Had a hang up on one of the screws but after that it was pretty simple..
