I bought my 3G about 3 weeks ago and there were 3 things that really bothered me that I finally got around to fixing this weekend.

1) Passenger A-spec skirt was missing.
Before:



After:




2) Passenger mirror was stained from the heater

3) Air intake hose had a hole in it. I used some electrical tape in the mean time but the part finally came in Friday so I replaced it.

BTW 1 car garage FTL!

 

Good job man, so now you have an extra driver side skirt? I know they don't sell them individually. One car garage is ok, at least she has a home.

 

I actually found someone to buy the drivers skirt so we split the order. It worked out good for both of us.

This one has a home but the RL and the other TL are stuck outside..winter is coming

 

I have those mirror "stains" on both of my mirrors, just too lazy to buy and change them heheh.

What did you use to pop off the glass?

 

looking good! where did u end up buying the mirror i need both of mine replaced ASAP they are way worse than yours

 

Just a very long, thin flat head. Once you unclip 4-6 of them, the rest are easy. Just have to be careful not to break anything.

I ordered it from Kaleb on this site. He works at Prestige Acura. It was $35 for the glass.

 

yea my drivers side mirror is getn a lil stain at the bottom and i rarely ever had used the mirror heaters i mean shiat i live in so cal.

looks like you got her put back together nicely good job!

 

im in the process of doing something similar to this too ... my car is showing a little wear and tear from the 70k miles, so the little parts that have some wear i am replacing.

 

Looking good buddy and thanks for lending me a hand in my install process as well. Now lets get some springs

 

There's nothing like knocking out your own honey-do list on the weekend.

 

so uhmm, you crawl over the console to get out of the passenger side? lol

 

nice progress with car

 

It's the only way to do it.

thank you.

 

Went to change my air filter and noticed the same rip on my intake, Taped it up and baught an cai. I could never figure out why and how it tore.

 

My car just hit 60k and ive been slowly tuning it up. Seeing that A-Spec kit makes me wanna get it that much more... Great job with the car btw

 

I'm glad you were able to make those changes man! How's the TL treating you so far?

And why do you climb over the center console? Can't you pack closer to the other side of the garage so you can open your door?

 

^ I think he did it for the one time he had to install his aspec.

 

Get it! It makes SUCH a big difference IMO.

Ha-ha, I don't park in there like that every day. I needed to get in there to work on the skirt.

TL's been great so far. Taking it to my mechanic Wed morning for a look over/oil change. Hopefully everything's good.


Did another small thing today ($5.99 shipped FTW):

Before (dirty - )

And after a wash




And thanks to Bobby on this site for the sticker


Stopped at my parents house to wash my car...washed my mom's MDX and had the fiance bring the RL to wash that too....Acura family:

96 TL in the street - my dad and I both drive it as needed.
04 MDX - mom's in the garage
02 RL - fiance's
05 TL - mine.

 

Man that bumper is CLEAN Stay off the highways! haha

 

Looking good Vas!

 

I'm such a dumbass

The TL looks great! I've recently done the opposite with the front of my car; I took the black vinyl letters off. It's taken me a while to get used to the look but I like it.

 

Thanks guys.

I'm thinking of getting some 07+ taillights.....

 

And the addiction starts...



07-08 Base Tails would look dope.

 

I'm trying to resist but I really like them. My friend has an 08 WDP..maybe if I swapped them overnight she wouldn't notice.

 

Do it.

 

Yep, it starts with tails, then goes to exhausts, Aspec Kits, wheels....obsession.

 

well...a-spec kit - check, wheels % hopefully check by this weekend.

 

looks good bro.
