wrong model...but worth a try!

Hi. I know I am posting in the wrong model section but perhaps the fitting guru might know this...

Year: 08
Model: MDX
Trim: Sport w/ Ent.
Color: ---
Item you would like fitment verified:

Thinking about putting a set of Rotora BBK (front & rear). I use the stock 18"wheels for the winter, and use the 19" chromes for the summer. Got a quote from Josh (Excelerate), and he informed me that the kit consists of 380mmx34mm rotors, 8 pistons fronts and 4 pistons rears (woah! now that's big ass). Josh thinks that the stock 18" would not fit and I must go with at least 19". Can this be confirmed??

Thanks!

Yeah I agree with josh, that is a pretty large rotor... The wheel barrel might be even with the caliper... I really wouldn't know as I've never actually even driven an mdx

Year: 04 Acura TL
Trim: Base
Color: Blk
Item you would like fitment verified:
Just bought my first Acura TL so I'm new to all this & would really appreciate if you pro's could help me out with some questions.

I want to interchange the original 04 bumper (is it has a crack in it anyway) with the new style 2007 or 2008 type-S bumper.

My Question is will it be an exact fit, no cutting or drilling requiered? My car is at the shop now getting serviced

I heard on here that hondacuraworld.com is the best place to get parts, I will be placing an order tommorrow, or let me know if any1 on here is selling an OEM 07-08 type-s front bumper. Also looking to buy the Type-S rear tail lights if any1 selling them...

2nd question, as for the fog lights that come with 07 bumper how will the connection work since the 04 model wasn't set-up for fogs, I found these on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...lenotsupported

and recommendations, should I buy them for my to use with my TL?


Thks in advance guys, your help is great appreciated

What are the choices, I know partchment is tanned... Taupe is also tanned, ebony I guess is black so that is probably the graphite black

Fyi. If you go to estore.acura.com and you enter your vin # you'll get exactly what your car is equiped with

Does anyone know what performance exhaust can you buy without changing the bumper? Or what bumper kit can I buy that would fit on a 04 TL 5AT without doing anything but drilling it on? (No new holes to drill, etc.) Would a ATLP Quad Exhaust work without changing the stock bumper?

How easy is it to install a CAI, do you have to remove a bunch of crap like the bumper or is it an easy install?
