Welcome. I'm not sure where you could have that done but it is a pretty simple DIY job.

Idk lol mdx and jdm wheel is the same damn thing, idc what anyone says. Ill go import an mdx wheel from japan and say its fucking jdm.

Marc's wheel is nice though if you wanna go the oem route. I was gonna do the same thing but this was the same price. Just the wheel not the NRG hub

Welcome to the forums man..

Since the 2G RL has the ACURA logo engraved

You're gonna have to tape off that part to do the painting.

search eBay for caliper spray paint,goodluck..

Hey i'd be pissed if i had shit in my tint. It's their job not to have lint in the tint but that looks like hair.. LOL. Im getting my tint done this weekend @ BMW. Ill post pics after.


Finally sold my wheels but now im bout to pick something else up multiple items actually.

Comptech Headers & J-Pipe
Ingalls Stiffy Torque Dampner
UR Pulley

only thing i have right now is full straight pipe from cat to my tsudo axlebacks and comptech icebox *modified. You guys think it'll make a big difference?

Glad you were able to sell the wheels Tony! Should pull more freely with the pulley and more exhaust flow. Should look into stiffer engine mounts to get more out of your mods.

No its not tuned and i dont believe they make tunes for the 2g tl . Unless the tune you mean is spark plugs, oil etc LOL then yes i do that myself.

My friend says teh pulley is a waste of money so i might not get it anymore but not sure yet. He says it doesnt make much of a difference but the TL guys saying it does. Maybe the pulleys for k series motors dont work as good as j series?
