I've been looking into these for the rear, can anyone share threads they're on? I'm going to hunt out Rockstars. I see them all over ebay..But some of them are cheesier than others! lol

Look in the RDX caliper cover thread in the Photo Gallery haha although I only know of J painting them another color, everyone in the RDX thread seems to keep them the way they are.

I think if i do get the rdx covers i would keep them black as well.. since my spokes are spaced out, i think painting them would make them pop but theyre small lol.

I'm not a big fan of the "brembo covers"... lol just saying. it would look great though

I am thinking of putting spacers in the rear. the front is good as is. maybe a small camber if anything

Thanks man! I do appreciate the compliments!






Now i have a question for everyone that has aspec lip kit on. Did you drill your bumpers or got away with double sided tape? I tried searching but i didnt find much results. I was told i can get away without drilling and just using 3m double sided tape for car exteriors?? I do not want to drill it but will if i have to....

We drilled mine. There is a bracket on the front bumper because around the sides, you'll have a space and that bracket mounts the A-Spec to the bumper.

Rear requires some drilling as well.

its been a while since my last update...



so i finally got my purple/white advan tcIII stickers!





Then i decided to jump on the bandwagon and get the type s front spoiler rather than modding the base lip to fit.

and that is all for now. i have my roof spoiler coming in this week. rear rdx covers and front calipers to paint this weekend!

So far I can think of... advan decals that I already have, front calipers, rear rdx caliper, and front bumper acura.

Im open to opinions and suggestions! Let me know what you guys think and maybe some ideas of what to do next.

Im currently debating on front brembo stickers and rear acura stickers or to do all acura stickers on the calipers???
