NBP Type S sittin' on Volk GT-S Gloss Gunmetal
Well here we go, FINALLY! Still sorting out a few issues with the stuborn TPMS sensors and have the right brackets on the way as we speak. These were ordered Type S specific sized 19X8.5 36mm offset with a high disk. Center Caps are the stock Acura ones until the Volk ones come in next week (they forgot to put them in the box). Tires are Nitto INVO 245/35/19. Suspension is TEIN SS with EDFC. They fit perfect. I couldn't ask for anything more. It's been raining for 3 days and about to start again so I quickly washed it this morning. Rims still need a good coat of polish so this is the best I can do for now. Oh and POS camera as well. Haha Enjoy. It's been a very long wait my friends!!!

I like the Volk caps so most likely I will put one on a wheel and look at the difference. Maybe roll one side AC and one side Volk. Just kidding of course but it would be funny!

I seriously can't stop looking at this thread...if I could do it all over again, thats how my car would look (and it would be a type-s ) What % tint do you have? Also, did you take the clear part out of your headlights?

35% all around. Ebony/Silver 2-tone interior so it looks darker. I'm about to get a sheet of 50% put on the front just to help knock down the sun blasting in.
I removed the orange pieces from the headlight and then painted the corner mirror piece gloss black to match the rest of the light. Also removed the Acura and TL letters off the back, wet sanded, and polished the adhesive out of the clear as well.
Thanks for all of the positive marks guys. I've been waiting a long time and have a huge grin on my face when driving around now. It fits my style perfect.
