Sorry a little off topic...hate that I can't PM yet.

Steve, anymore info on the interior kits by AC? I tried their website and failed...I took a look through your Garage profile and your CF interior turned out great! Did you just apply it over your OEM dash kit, because it looks damn good.

Please PM me back some more info/post up really interested...

Thanks

Thanks Slick! I couldn't PM you because you don't have enough posting yet. But I really love the Carbon Fiber kit! I got mine through another member here on Acurazine, but if you go to www.nycdashes.com, you can find the same Carbon Fiber interior trim kit.

Took two and a half weeks to arrive, but I finally got my letter inserts tonight. Unfortunately my adhesive promoter stick was also completely dried out. I emailed customer service to get a new one sent. To those that had the same problem and applied the inserts without the adhesive promoter, how have the results been? Would you recommend waiting for my replacement to arrive or just install them without it?

Thanks!

I think mine was dried too on arrival.. the directions said to break at the dot.. which i did and the directions said it was suppose to ooze or something.. well i broke at the dot but the foam part was still dried.. i tried breaking it in some more but still the same. I still used it but whatever. Just make sure you wash the front bumper/inside the letters etc with soap, completely dry it, then use the alcohol wipes that came with the kit and apply the letters on. The summer heat will also set the adhesion into the grooves i dont think its going to come off

Sounds like a plan, thanks for the help.

Any recommendations for a nbp?

Can't really figure out what would be a good pairing. I was thinking maybe a dark blue or a white maybe?

Any input welcome, thanks guys!

where can i get this bumper decal?

Try E-bay or you can go to http://www.automotiveconcepts.net select your vehicles make, model and year and search and then click on dash kits there price is pretty pricey.

^^Pricey? yes Quality? Much better than some of the eBay items. These are true 3D dome decals. Note that they are produced on an as-ordered basis and delivery times may be longer than you are used to. Definitely worth the wait.

I applied my letters in late March 2009, and they were holding up well until around New Years when my mom noticed the the R and A at the end fell off. Now I drive an 'ACU' lol. My promoter stick was dry too, but I just used the alcohol wipes and put them on. I will probably order another full set and just use the R and A from the new set unless I can get the other 3 letters off.

I love the look of mine (silver to match the grill), and would recommend them. I probably should have waited to apply them when the weather wasnt damp but I was impatient lol.

Mine date back about that far, as well. PSULou & I got our AM TLs from the same dealer at about the same time! Still going strong.
Lou---haven't seen you on the boards for a while. Got any new pics or mods to share?

Mine were put on sometime back in Feb 09 I think and they are still holding strong.

that site wont let me put my car model in ..

So you can simply take it off when you get tired of the color or having it painted and you retain the original paint!

This really ticks me off!!! I'm in MD, just got a TL I picked up for a steal (hit in the front) beautiful front bumper, and paint job - guess what?

I have to cover it up with a butt ugly MD license plate and the holder...

I might look into mounting it low like I've done on a Saleen Mustang, but think the bumper is just too low and my wife will rip the sucker off (she's a great driver, but can see it happening).

I ran for years without front license plates in MD - no problems. Until a few years ago and we got pulled over three times (one ticket, one inspection ticket, and my wife got away with a verbal...)

SOOO, now we have em on the cars.

You guys think its the one? I cant find it anywhere else.

^^No, that is NOT the 3D Dome sticker. That is just a vinyl decal. While it may work, it won't be raised like the ones we are talking about from here: http://www.automotiveconcepts.net

PSULou03

Unfortunately I dont have any new mods. Only thing I had to 'mod' was the left tailpipe surround of my A-Spec kit since I backed into a curb and somehow part of the plastic got in front of the tailpipe and molded itself around it a bit. I had to cut/dremel the plastic to get it away from blocking the opening. I am a good driver on the road, just a clumsy one with parking lol.

I have been looking at trying to get some rims (A-Spec or some other simple 5 spoke type rims), but not sure I want to spend that type of money yet, even though I have it lol.

I was actually just looking for the vinyl sticker. I like the way it dips into the bumper.

Not many NBP with the stickers I really want to get one but not sure on the color anyone with NBP have a silver sticker?

Does Automotive Concepts still carry Acura bumper decals/letters? I looked today and couldn't find anything.

Search eBay for seller "4unotnew08"

PSULou03

Here you go. It isn't exactly easy to find, but I've done it twice since 2 of my letters fell off and I was annoyed at driving an "ACU" lol, so I just got another set.

im having the same issue. i guess they took them off the site

PSULou03

Unfortunately it looks like they don't have any more dash kits either. That stinks! Hope the new letters I got don't fall off.

trancemission

I have some stickers for the front that I had made a while back. I think I have white, silver and black. Ill have to check, id be more then willing to send anyone a sticker if you wanna try it out.

They're just vinyl stickers. They dont bulge out like some ive seen

rptls08

iTrader: (1)

how did your stickers hold up? im willing to try them out if you want to send a black one. i would pm you but im new to the forum and havent unlocked that feature yet.

Aldous

how much is it going to be?? im interested in the silver one

racerock

With great sadness, I finally got around to putting the emblem over the very nice front bumper of my TL.

It is the license plate holder and MARYLAND license plate.

BUTT ugly...

I did mount it upside down to lower it though.

Now to teach my wife (and myself) not to get too close to any parking stops or curbs... I may turn it right side up, not sure.

trancemission

Im not selling them....I never was....I just ordered a bunch of different kinds because my buddy at the time worked at a place that did it.

I have black reflective ones on my front bumper that have been there as long as I can remember.....
