CL with TL front end.

Carlo, check your power steering fluid just in case. Its quick and easy, but thats usually a whining noise.

 

^ swap my 01 CL front end with a 02-03 TL front end

 

got any pics to post? I know u took some

 

^ lol...yea i did took some pics but these are the before pics...after pics will soon come. ill stop by the shop every weekend to take some progress pics and ill post them.

this is the only good pics, as you can see everything fits fine, except the fenders. thats why i didnt put them on.

 

Wow man that's kinda cool. The rear stayed the same?

 

yea the rear stay the same. cant change it. if you wanna change it then the only thing is to slap on a 2gen TL lip on it. which i already did

 

^ Progress is looking good man!

 

Hey sorry Kevin...I brought the pulley...but Mr. Flaker didn't come through. :shakehead

Anyone have good/bad experience with Niello Acura?

 

Carlo, he is the main one that goes there. I go to EG acura because I know the guys there, I think Gary has been to Niello once before.

 

Niello is okay. But EG Acura has better prices.

lol I didn't flake, I was just busy, too busy to unsign up and only 1 person wanted to come with me from sac. Blame it on everyone else too.

 

Ok. I just thought Niello because its close to my job. I think ima just have them look at my car, I hate the noise its making.

 

nope I call BS if everyone jumped off a bridge would u do it also.... LOL

 

Alright 20 is fine when can i pick it up?

 

hmmm sometime this week I'll PM u my number

 

Just made a appointment with Niello. $130/hr uggghhhh. There goes any of my modding money for the next few months lol.

 

I've had a good experience with Niello parts. I used to like Niello service, but now they're all pretentious douche bags that act like I'm driving some POS car and trying to get it serviced at Bently. I usually just get my service done at Mel Rapton Honda.

 

Well, ill see how they treat me. Ill throw in some dealership lingo in there lol. Its closest to my job and more convenient.

 

No...still your fault!

 

2nd gen TL/CL guys do u need any maintance parts? TIming belt, A/C tensioner, A/C belt intake manifold gaskets I have them brand new never opened...

also if anyone else is interested I have 2 bottle of Acura brake fluid and 1 gallon of antifreeze that I will sell.. if anyone wants it

 

does anyone kno anyone that can uninstall a remote start?

 

Hmm, naw man.

So Niello didnt really help me. They charge me a hr to look at my car and say "it could be this".

 

typical, better off taking it to an independent shop.

I go to a place in Elk Grove called expert automotive they only work on Honda and Acura's been around for a while

reasonable prices and honest that wont tell you what Niello told you they will help

 

yeah I should done that from the go. Oh well.

 

does anyone have a single din cd player, or radio that they have no use for no more I dont care if its broken as long as its a single din unit

 

i went to the shop 2day and ask about the paintin part, how they gonna do it. they told me that they're only goin to pain the front and the doors not the whold car...wtf!? i thought they're suppose to paint the whole car, not just half of it! are they right or am i gettin rip off

 

Umm well it depends on what they quoted you from the go. Every place works different, if they are charging you to paint the whole car they better be painting the whole car so it matches.

 

the thing is that my color is still clean and what i want is just to paint the front. not the doors or the rear, just the front. but the guy said that he needs to paint the doors to match and "blend in" with the rear. so then i said why not just paint the whole car if he's gonna paint the doors. he said no need to. oh well...good thing i havent pay them for the paint job yet. i told them to call me first so i can see it b4 the paint job.
