When "they" say nsx gets no respect, you better not look at this pic (car looks great though)

^ haha! Others have mentioned that as well. It was the first time a GTR came out to a meet, so I didn't mind the lack of love.

-Zanardi Shift Knob (can't wait to get another heavy/weighted shift knob)
-NSX-R Mesh boot with CF Trim
-Short Gear Stalk
-Downforice Carbon fiber License Plate Bezel
-JDM Navigation Pod
-AudioVox Back up Camera
-Alpine 770 Touch Screen with Navi screen Mount
-Alpine Navi/ Black Bird Docking Station

Took a few shots of the new interior. I wanted to keep the interior as OEM as possible. The shift knob is awesome. Weighted knobs ftw!

-Zanardi Shift Knob (can't wait to get another heavy/weighted shift knob)
-NSX-R Mesh boot with CF Trim
-SOS Short Gear Stalk
-Honda JDM Navigation Pod
-AudioVox Back up Camera
-Alpine 770 Touch Screen with Navi screen Mount
-Alpine Navi/ Black Bird Docking Station

DUUDE!

synth19...that is freaking amazing.

Love the tasteful upgrades and I love the Orange/Black combo.

Drop is perfect and this is the first time I have liked those model Volks on a car.

So clean...looks like you don't even drive it...Interior is flawless.

Makes me want to go out and detail my CL... haha.

Is it your weekend car?

I haven't seen your Z...

Thanks for the comments ya'll... couple new updated mods. Picked up the NSX-R chassis reinforcement bars. Here are some pics of the bars, but mine will be powder coated black.





Keeping with the black theme, some new Acura emblems should be arriving soon and will be powder coated black.

^ possibly through the front opening, that's why I'm going with a powder coated set. Luckily I found a used set from a guy who owns a powder coating company.

I guess it's a good thing that Acura discontinued the NSX, considering that if they didn't, they would somehow fit the TL grill on it...
