WDP Type-S Introduction
 
Hard to not like the 3G, even harder to not love the Type-S!
Ordered 3rd/4th Gear Pressure switches last week
Ordered Evap Solenoid for Gas Cap Loose message
Getting fluids changes in 2 weeks

Been cleaning paint and glass all week. It was completely covered in water spots. Headlights were in tough condition, buffed out windshield wipers arms, window seal trim, black fog light housing, etc. Have to clean and re-grease side view mirrors. Bottom line it just needsome maintenance and tlc, and I'll give it to her.

interested in adding:
roof spoiler
tints
ASpecs
LED fogs
window visors

I have added:
LED interior lights/back up lights
Vinyl bumper inserts
Acura valve stems

I have lots of pictures to start lol. We all love 3G pics

Barely 2 weeks, didn't even drive it first couple days. Had been looking for a couple months.

truonghthe 08-25-2017 09:56 PM

what happened to the 4G? any how I never like the interior on the 4G especially the rear window, its too narrow.

sold it. I liked the interior of the 4G. Although the bottom part of the driver seat was too narrow, so I was always shifting my butt over to the middle. I wasn't ever in love with the styling. I couldn't do a base after having SH-AWD so I was only gonna buy a Type-S.

Looks good.

Steven Bell 09-05-2017 08:27 PM

Not bad...I paint my "TL" that is sideways on the floor mat. Maybe try that too and consider arranging the "Type S" badge with the painted "TL".

can you share where you bought the interior white led's from? I don't know which brand to get, but I found some at amazon, is it good?

These
are not super super bright as that was not the look I was going for. But they do the job and keeps the car looking stock.

If you want ridiculous bright get these which I have for the reverse lights
