Nice! I'm getting jealous as hell and obsessing about AWD day and night now.
Does Acura demselves sell the black grill now? Cause when I was playing with the configurator on their site, I saw aggressive front end options etc. but not black grill.

Heres some more photos
Go out and get one! I had to have it after the design changes. I had my grill and rear garnish painted before they even put tags on the car back in July. If you request it they will make it happen.

The exhaust is OEM. I had a professional shop cut/weld stainless steel tips on the stock mufflers. I also deleted the in-line resonators and the secondary cat. The OEM exhaust untapped sounds incredible ! It has a exotic R35 GTR-ish sound with no drone! With noticable gains!
Thank you and you are on point! Thats the look I shoot for!...a very clean and aggressive look. My goal is to enhance the cars natural lines and performance with out adding too many weight bloating accessories.

,whenever possible,post a sound clip.The tips really complete the rear end and the quads are much better looking than the original,good job.

so you basically just kept the stock exhaust and had a muffler shop cut out the resonators and secondary cats? did they just insert some custom bent piping into the areas where you cutout the stock stuff? welded in? or did they do it with flanges so you could remove what they made?
what did you pay for this mod? sound clips would be nice.
if/when I ever got around to putting an exhaust on my car - if there is some easy DIY mod where you can get a similar sounding setup to the aftermarket stuff for far less money.. might be something to at least consider.
only drawback I can think of is that if this is all welded in.. here in CA.. once you install it you are stuck with it and cant' pass smog.

I have a busy weekend but I will work on that for you.
You are good sir! I appreciate the comments makes for a entertaining day. You are killing me with the crabs man! Im 2 seconds off a visit to the harbor seafood spot!
Be careful where you take your car as far as the exhaust. Make sure their results are quality and they use stainless steel pipe. All pipes have mandrel bends and are welded. The secondary cat was removed and a custom test pipe was made with flanges so that the cat can be replaced.

Not exactly they have a oval shape. The tips measure 3 x 3.5
Thanks! Your car is looking good too sir! You are local so we need to hook up and you can hear the car in person. We can also put together a photo shoot for the "Batmobile's" one good day.
