Got the bumper at speed concept too btw.
So if any of you need parts from Acura, go talk to JJ. All my shit came from Ron Tonkin, for a lot a lot less.

Hopefully ill have the spoiler put on. Ive got to get my trunk repainted still, but that will be for free. So when that is getting done im gonna ask what it will cost to mold it in.
Bumper probably wont be on, unless all i paint is the bumper and i dont blend it. But then again, i dont have the lip or fog lights yet.
Steering wheel...still need to find a place to wrap it.
Rear fog...yea that will be done soon.

Dynamat is on the spendy side. You can get more bang for the buck if you go with companys such as secondskin, rammat, and edead. I deadened the entire rsx with Edead v1se, teklite, and V3 for around $300. That was 2 layers plus the teklite on top. The V3 was pasted onto the inside of the plastic door panels. The was pretty quiet afterwards.
PICS!! my old install
Check elementaldesigns for info on thier site.

years ago, i used fatmat on my tsx and when weather got sizzling hot, fatmat (tarp) melted and leaked down the seams on few doors.
after that incident, i only used dynamat even though they are pricey.

Ha, i think we just screwed over Tonkin now that we know Speed has a account with them.
I hope these new mods will help out, im tired of doing as much as i do and every time i show it, it gets no coverage or people think its a TSX (not trying to bash on TSX's)
Also Min, one of the guys on Team Vanquish lives right by you, says hes waved at you a couple times thinking you were me. Was tell me that he saw my car with a police sticker on the back window. He drives a Yellow/Carbon Fiber WRX on Black RPF1's

its been a while so i'm not pretty sure. i was so into stereo and can't believe i forgot all those things after few years...
i know i used aux adapter (may be from shonda?) and ground loop isolator to eliminate ground noise. used jl e6450(?) 6 channel to power 10 speakers and two subs in the trunk.
this is a later setup. ditched alpine for eclipse 2din unit

Dont mind the dirt.
But here is what the spoiler looks like just mocked up on the trunk. Tomorrow ill work on some photoshop's of it molded on.
Also found a place for my rear facing fog light were its only visible from about 10+ ft away from the car, and its nice and low to cut through any evil fog when it comes to be that time of year again.

Thanks guys, it needs a little work. there are some low spots in the spoiler that needs to be leveled out. Also the area the comes around the rear "A" isnt centered. All simple fixes, and luckily its not carbon fiber.
