Ok i thought they did it.
Does someone in house do it or do they outsource someone to remove them??
Also, ive still got your race pipe. ??? Let me know what you wanna do with it.
AND ive got that trunk tray for the cool price of FREE to whoever wants it. Let me know so i dont end up getting rid of it.

Holy shit...
Ron Tonkin wants $600+ for a Type-S Spoiler. When I asked why they are $350 more than anywhere else i got told "because they come painted"
No shit they come painted...all Acura Body shit does...
Wonder if they add $1800 to paint all 6 the peices of the pre-painted ASPEC parts...

I think Tonkin just is in general. when i bought my tsx i said white or black black interior manual they tried to sell me green with tan and auto...then when i was looking for my TL they tried to sell me a normal one and the guy - no joke - said there is no difference between a type S and a normal TL everything is the same except them emblem and the exhaust is shaped a little different - my reply was - ummm why do ppl pay the extra few thousand for just an emblem - he said cuz they're stupid. hahaha i guess im stupid them cuz i paid money just for my emblems lol

they outsource it. does pretty good job.
and can you drop the race pipe at speed when you get a chance? i'll swap them back into my tl since 3rd cat isn't necessary with he precats.

rt's part department is the shittiest ever. i think they just don't wanna bring in business. never even go in to ask price with them. bunch of stuck ups that doesn't even budge a penny.
if you want oem parts, go to hondaacuraworld.com if you haven't already.
www.honda acura world.com
http://www.hondacuraworld.com/Mercha...egory_Code=ATL
$253.50 with free shipping. done deal.

really?? i think im the only person in the world over having flush wheels. its ok, but i like my fenders.. plus spacers are way to scary - they'res a reason they wont let you drift or run autocross with them...
have you seen the infamous video of the mazda?
but
if you like it - after all its way cooler than ppl who still shave door handles and chrome fender flares 
oh and just a teaser - i'll take better pics when its clean lol

I may have to come up a lil. im going to give it a few weeks. the speed bumps at my apt complex are hell. i scraped my exhaust this morning...and the side of my F-ing car last night - good thing i dont have a lip kit lol
and law on being low is you cant be lower than you rim. so you have to have tire showing. headlights have to be wha 22" off the ground?? thats the main issue right cuz if your not then its just like your driving with only fogs on
i'm so excited!!!!

Also, its good i never plan to drift or autocross my FWD boat.
If the video you are talking about of the Red RX-7 that lost all 4 wheels auto x-ing, i believe it was due to not having the right lug nuts on his car.
Check the vid...if hes running spacers they dont have built in studs and are very small because all i see is the hats on the brakes.

The drop looks good, but raise it up and push the wheels out lol.

lots of ppl think it looks weak and lots of ppl dont care -
i'm not buying spacers for my car -
IMO if you want your wheels out more should have got them in a diff size - and if they dont come in that size you should have got diff wheels. my prob is with spacers not so much with flush wheels.
i'm not planning on buying diff wheels for my car so i guess it will always just look like crap - but its my crap and i love it.
and what do you mean no FWD drift haha. jk

oh and in reference for the video i didnt mean that he had spacers. i guess i worded that bad...i was meaning it is a possibly if you drive aggressively - which when you buy spacers they recommend you do not do - because that mazda video could be your result.

I Quit
LOL at RX7 - looks like he was on some RPF-1's, I want those in the chrome finish 
I'd be to afraid to even roll out of my driveway that low lol, although any lower than I am with TLS wheels on a TSX and I get fender rub on man hole covers!
