Check out the eyelids for our 1st Gen TLs I'm about to have a pair made for my 1st Gen TL because it is almost impossible to find these. Guess where I'm getting them from? PM me.

Custom made Acura Legend carbon fiber fuel rail covers. I prefer these verses the whole TL cover.

Modified widen RL intake manifold (Left) and Legend Type II manifold (Right). Going to modify widen the Legend Type II to the measurements of the modified widen RL... without the block rectangle look.

My manifold needs to be widen due to my block in my TL is a 3.5RL and the heads are from a larger Legend type II. Will take a couple of weeks for the aluminum welder to finish.

The RL is on the Left (anatomical right) and the Legend Type II is on the Right (anatomical left). Basically the one with the pipe is the RL.

i got a little bored waiting for days over the weekend for parts to be finish at the machine shop and welders. So, I decide to practice aluminum polishing with the thermostat housing. Just got different grits of sandpaper and got down on it while watching a little Netflix. Too bad the majority of it will be covered. But, I may get the Dremel and continue until I see my complete reflection.

The Latch 2.5TL hood centers up to the 3.2TL latch. But I will use the 2.5TL latch will be used.

There are no holes for hydraulic hood hinges so the 2.5 hood support rod is used

It lines up well, but there is a small gap and a couple of cm off for the light space
