I would just bring the money with you when you come.

Last year, the paypal was setup by a sponsor who handled the donations to Scottish Rite. Because that sponsor will not be there this year & the donations are not going to SR, is most likely why there isn't a paypal link.

This year, the proceeds go to the RedCross who will be attending, so the donations will be going directly to them at the event.

Im pretty sure they'll ship them all together....I have the euro grills coming too. they're the grills with the holes in them for the tips to come through.

Im still debating on using them. I have the delete kit which will enable you to see everything in there. Im told its good to do the delete cuz of the heat. Im just not sure if Im sold on the look.

All they should have to do is slap a different return address on the box it comes in. Should take no more than a day...

I think the euro grill makes it look clean, the delete makes it look really aggressive. If the exhaust is more of a aggressive tone (like mine) I say do the delete to go with it. If it is just slightly louder, I would do the euro grill. My style is aggressive so I would do the delete. Plus you say it will help with heat, so another reason to do the delete.

EDIT-Just went and looked around British speed and I have to say I really like the delete. Thats my vote.

Thats what you and I are gonna figure out

I like the look of the delete with the one exhaust tip. But with the two I think the Euro cleans it up a bit.

But we'll look at it with and without

I like a challenge

You receive any tracking numbers yet?

EDIT-Where did you order it from? The Blackwatch site or w/e? I've been lurking British Speed

So the alumindiffuser and Larini SE style exhaust? Very nice.

I'm assuming no DIY either

You and I can figure it out. The only issue will be how to put the diffuser back on with the euro grills.

It can be done....look at that exige I keep telling you to talk too. That dude did it.

This would be just like yours but without the grill?

I know I sent texted you a pic of that black one with the rear end like that, but I guess I didn't save it in my phone...

Hi everyone, I am not sure what to post or if I posted before...bought my RL almost two months ago after several Hondas and a couple of S2000s....very interesting car but you gotta do what you gotta do. It's white RL with Tech package...stock for now. Was in love with TL Type-S but found a great deal that I couldn't pass on RL

So, what's going on?

Thank you.

I have loved RL since the day I saw one but never thought I'd be able to find a decent one

Which TL do you have?

I don't have many pics but here is one that I took when I bought her and one from a road trip where I went from 19mpg (I've got a lead foot) to 26MPG on highway.





Mileage is not bad at all, I get around 23 mixed I think but coming from S2000, I spend more time in higher rpms than usual...will take some getting used to
Sometimes I don't even realize I am doing that till I feel the vtec kick...I was surprised that Honda could make a kick for a 4000lbs boat as well! Love the car and every second of driving it.

I know pmptx from s2ki, we did a track day together at MSR once...he owns a blue type S I believe and hosts a meet as well.
