Very nice!
How did you get the rears to fit without rubbing? What kind of negative camber are you running on the rear?
Spec on the wheels? (offset, etc.)

Again, VERY nice.

It actually rides great! The rear did rub at first. I had it fixed by removing the wheels and shaving 4mm of the back wheels and slightly rolling the fenders. You would not have that problem if you go with 8.5-9" wide but my rears are 10" wide.(tight fit) Rides great now.

Thanks bro, for more pics here:
edit: apparently the acura forum thinks that drive accord will steal members and wont let me post a link to it, if you'd like to see more of it, PM me and I'll send you a link. (I've put the HFP kit on it since you last saw it)

you need to put up more of yours too!

Rear Strut location

Where are the mounting bolts located? Trying not to pull apart trunk if there under the rear deck? Any knowledge on this would be helpful.

Thanks
Happy Holidays!!!!

thanks!

since acura refuses to come out with a new CL, I had to go with the accord coupe... its some memory seats and auto dimmiing mirrors shy of exactly what I'da expected acura to do for the next CL anyway.

Since then, added the HFP lip kit:
