It's a good look-especially with the Audi style lights.

Yea neither did I lol I wrapped the middle bar in carbon fiber, redid the hood trim and that narrow silver piece back to silver, and did the rear bar and emblem in a new gloss black. Looks nice

The grill. If you know they're different, you know what's black chrome. I'm not sure that's the name given by Acura. But, if you know that the finishes are different, you know what I mean by black chrome.
I'm talking about the "shiny" part of the grill, not the mesh.

whenever i see a flat black grille i think of the RSXs i see running around with flat black DIY spray paint on various parts of their car, looks tacky as hell.
some of these look good though

thanx man......i should have made a video while i did it...but wasnt expecting any requests .....all i can say is the part on the hood and the lower trim are pretty easy if you have knife skills.....when doing the middle bar i started above the "A" and worked towards the edges....makes it alot easier that way..takes a little patience...oh and some vinyl lol....

they dont sell it pre-cut....you have to buy a size big enough to cover the roof....look at a video on youtube to see how to install it.......search for 3m matte black vinyl install...its not too hard...its a dry install..no soapy water needed

Also, has anyone used the gloss black 3m vinyl on nbp or any other color for that matter?
