Well I'd rather not remove the bumper. I'd actually rather to install it and it take 30 min. to an hour and not remove a bunch of crap, if it means removing less things. So I can just pop the hood and install it without a lift or anything right? And should I sell my stock air intake?

My suggestion to you, return it

Removing the front bumper is a pita I know, but it does make the install easier

Ok so is there like a diagram of how to remove the bumper? And what else is there to remove besides the bumper? I am getting:
"Injen Cold Air RD Series Race Division Intake Systems, Polished, 04-08 UA6 TL (CARB 04 Only), 2007 TL Type S, RD1482P"
From heeltoe, will it be easy and nothing to it? Or do you have a recommended CAI thats better/easier to install.

I have 2007 style front bumper on my TL, I can't afford to spend the money and buy the Acura fog lamps: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/07-08...=p4506.c0.m245 will the Honda 1's work ?
Are they the same dimensions, oval shape?

they move the back of the wheel further out making more space for big brakes (ie. ur brembos)

Item you would like fitment verified:
Current setup is 18x8.5 A-Specs with 245/40R18 tires, running on A-Spec suspension. Been thinking about purchasing a set of 19" Honda HFP 10 spokes. The specs for these rims are:
- 19"x8"
- 5 x 114 bolt pattern
- +55 offset
The 18x8.5 A-Specs are +45 offset. Since the HFP's are +55 offset, and 1/2 inch narrower, would the wheels looked "tucked in"?? Try to stay away from spacers if possible. What size of tires is recommended? The recommended tire size from Honda for the HFP is 235/35R19.
Also, would these wheels clear the Rotora BBK? I would assume so, but that +55 offset kinda worries me.
Thanks fitting guru!

Ok if you would like to stay away from a spacer... then pass on that wheel, if your car is equiped with a rotora bbk you will need no less than a 15mm spacer... not only for it to look good but for it to clear the brakes...

your rear tire will be flush with the quarter panel, you may want to get just your rear fenders rolled

Dear Guru,
Any opinions on the wheels ??
The Advanti look great in black and seem to be quality - 24lbs in 18 X 8 with a load rating of 1,700lbs.
MSR 045 are supposedly made in USA.
Thanks again, Fulcrum
