RonJon Concept RDX, experimental for now.
was thinking of making a kit for the RDX, but it is still such a gamble at this point, I have no idea of how many people will actually want to mod it. Anyway, it has the new 20" Forged 2-piece wheels and urethane front bumper / rocker panels / grille / tinted and cleared headlights. There will also be a rear diffuser and molded mud guards.
whaddya think?

Do the strakes on the lowest grill match the strakes on the turbo grill?
Are the intake holes below the fog lights functional? If not, how about moving the fogs down there for a cleaner bumper?

Wow that looks really good. The only thing I don't like is the lower portion of the front, makes it look a little too Transformer-ish.

Thanks, the sides were just a space filler for now to even out the height, but the front is an add on lip, from the middle down. Of course this is a first attempt, but I would def keep working on it till it is just right. Now to see how welkl the RDX does with the aftermarket crowd.

that looks great, Ron! I think a lot of people will be hooking up the rdx. the only thing is, too many grilles in front. i think it's just the one dead in the middle that needs help. maybe if the top one was filled in like the 3G TL grille u did. anyway, keep up the good work

Ronjon,
That car looks great, I like the fact that you made it take on a more angular shape from the front. Just for perspective what would something like that cost off the top of your head minus the rims?

oh and i like the kit. my question is so if there is side skirts they wont work with the running boards then right? i really like what you did to the front grill.

The workmanship is very nice and you seem to have nailed it for the most part. However, as others have said, I would match the lower half of the front bumper to the top, sort of coming to a point.
Also, I think the side skirts are a little 2-D and I would definitely try to tuck them in a bit more, and they should have lines to match up with the doors, etc.
