Pictoral Timeline of my car (including girls!)
Car on stock wheels, stock suspension, stock everything. This was taken in Maryland at our old house.
After purchase of a carbon fiber hood. Hood saved about 21 pounds, and saved my from touching up all the future paint chips on the stock hood!
TL engine cover painted to match the exterior of the car.
Me running with the bulls!
(I know I know, has nothing to do with the car). Play where's gatrhumpy. (I'm facing the bull, right in front of his rear right leg).
Rear exhaust cutouts.
Addition of HFP front and rear faux-carbon fiber window trim.
Pics after HFP suspension.
Pics after HFP suspension and new EP-15 HFP OEM Honda wheels.
Pics of hot girls on my bed.
Pics after getting carbon fiber TL engine cover.
Pics of current TL engine cover. Painted it with a graphite black. Also painted all the black plastic portions of the car inside the engine bay.
Me and my boss.
After installation of carpet in glove compartment and MP3/DVD player.

can you explain the exhaust cutouts to me? I'm uber confused.
To me, a cutout is before the muffler (generally before the cat) where the exhaust system is bypassed

That night my wife had a bachelorette party at my house. I was kicked out. They decided to take pictures like that on my bed, most of them. A lot of crazy stuff happened in that house that night.

I found Acurazine when I was trying to mod my car and find an AUX-IN solution for MP3 sound and playing movies on my nav screen.

You know, as much time as you spent in the TL section, I always thought you had a TL. But having no payment is better than bling. I can't wait until my TL is paid off next year.

I don't know if you're set up is similar to the older 2nd gen TL, but take a look in the trunk where the GPS/NAV unit is mounted. You may have to lay down inside the trunk and look around on the box hanging down, or behind it at another box that may be located there. You may have an external input there.
I have one in my Saber, but it may be located on the TV unit. Not sure as I am away in NY on vacation.

My car is similar to the Acura TL ('04-'08) and Acura TSX.
I have an aux-in input from Avelectronic. I use that to play DVDs.
I'm still thinking of trying to get the DVD-A player from a TL and seeing if it will fit and replace my CD changer in the dash of my Accord.

Nice car, though I think you should have left the first engine cover on, the CF one looked jacked up. Did the suspension lower the car much? I don't see a difference, though I'm not sure what other options are out there.
On the other hand, first girl is hot, mooaaaaaaar.

Yeah, I removed the CF engine cover because it was crap. I did like the custom painted engine cover, but it was expensive for that paint. I got three cans of paint at Autozone for the black one.

You'll need to up the ante. Whiskers already offered me his wife and her paycheck for modship.
