Thinking about a few things....

And I would love your opinions....


1. Grill painting. Not the whole thing just the inside of the grill to match the body coloring.
2. Lower grill painting. I am thinking about matching the color of the lower grills with the cross member in the front grill (silver) I have a black TL. And it just kinda feels lost.
3. Rear side marker lights. I am thinking about smoking these
4. Rear lights. Thinking about smoking these as well.
5. Clear corners.... I know how you all feel about this..... But I was also thinking about how hard it would be to do the original corners (the neon tubes) (possibly bending acrylic and putting LEDs on the ends ((like angel eyes on the BMW)))
6. Under body Neon.....JUST KIDDING BWAAAA HAA HAA HAA HAA

I have thought the grill painted body color would look good. On a White or Anthracite, I think it would look killer to paint the whole thing body color excet the Acura emblem. On black, leaving the outer part silver would probably be a good idea.

The rest of the mods you mention are too subtle to me to be worth the trouble.

Whatever you do, please post pics.

1. I think painting the outer ring of the grill body color would look better.
2. They are not good-looking enough to find. Leave them lost.
3. Don't smoke these; very bad for your health.
4. See 3.
5. Way more effort than it's worth.
6. You should have left of the bwaaaa haa haa haa haa; many more responses that way.
