Yea, I can do that. I'll take a few pictures tomorrow. Yea, the shipping is ridiculous. I want an OEM Kit bad, but I just want the 6-speed a bit more. Need to get the rest of my parts. Just waiting on someone

Thanks. Trying to decide between the CL and the RSX wheel.

Skirts shouldn't be too bad. The sides of the rear lip are what jacked the price up. They measured the cross-dimensions and counted it as a solid piece.

Here's the CL-S wheel with the OEM Accord one I have for sale.








And then I found this picture with my hood-bra on with my retros right before IA.

If I'm not mistaken yes. I'm pretty sure Chris has a CL-S wheel in his 99.

The CL-S wheel is the bigger one? That thing is massive. If anything, I'd like a smaller wheel since I sit very close to mine. Thanks for the pic comparison.

Your dipped upper grille matches w/ the hood cover very well. How's the dip holding? I'm guessing it won't chip easily by the road debris, like the regular paint, since it's more like a rubber texture.

Dip is holding great, little chips but nothing big. It's been about 18 months, put it on right before summer IA 2013. I'm thinking of painting it gloss black, maybe flat

That's good to know. I'll be partially dipping the front-end for the first time, when this cold season is over. Like you said, if you ever decided to paint the grille, applying Ventureshield paint protection would be a good idea. I have that on my front lip, and it's hell of a protection.

Bump. Found a great deal on an AP1 S2000 wheel, so I went with that instead of the CL wheel I picked up. Still perf. leather though.




Also finally after giving up on this guy on shipping me swap parts, I found a 5mt coupe at a junkyard. I know have the clutch pedal, master cylinder, lines, brake pedal, shifter surroud, boot, and a few other miscellaneous things. Now I need to start saving for my harness.

Also a test fit of my Rotiforms.
