As promised, picked up new wheels! Plus, updated grill pictures.
Well ever since I got on the site ive been promising new wheels. Went to see my buddy yesterday and picked these up for my wheels and 100$. Im very happy with how they look. Definatley better than what I had and look more like wheels that belong on an Acura. Let me know what you think! I took off the black that I painted below the Acura symbol in the back to try and blend in more with the silver...you think I should leave the grill black or lose the black to blend in better?
Also have a picture of the Acura Logo valve stem covers I got!

Well im running straight pipes right now with a magnaflow resonator. So i have no 1st 2nd or 3rd muffler. So he had to weld the stock tips to pipe he put in there....he didnt center them exaclty right and I noticed it the next day.

I love how he typed "bacon" and "smart" in all caps, like it rhymes 
He's from NY so I guess I really shouldn't be surprised something like that was said.

There's nothing smart about putting bacon on a set of wheels, even if they are hot. It's a waste of good bacon.

Decided to take the plastidip off the front grill and the bar underneath the Acura symbol on the trunk to blend in more with the wheels. I think it looks better this way...whatcha think?

Dammit Aaron you beat me to it!
I actually like the black grill. Since you left the emblem chrome, it was enough to tie in with the wheels. Your car looks good either way.

I like it much better now. You should plasti-dip your wheels.
