Looks great man. I really like the way the head light housing looks on the silver car. I am thinking of doing that also, or something else, not sure yet.

Nice WIP. Keep up the good work.

Is it just me or is does the grill appear missing in all but two of the front shots? Looking real good there.

Thanks for the compliments... took the car out lastnight, it caused a lot of head turning,

the reason I painted the L on the grille is because I wanted it to match the black pearl emblems in the back.

The shrouds used in the remake are Acura MDX shrouds.

There are still some more things that need to be done, I just wanted to get my car out of that shop, nothing but crooks where I took it.
I also have to adjust the borla tips, they are sticking out a little bit too much. Maybe I can get a whole new exhaust soon too.

Default I like the look!

Your car looks good! I think the TTE lip was the best aftermarket piece made for the 2nd generation model! Keep up the good work!

I like the blacked-out grille. I didn't think I'd like it, but it looks cool.

The silver headlight housings add the "flow" of the car. I wouldn't like the silver housings on a different colored car (I actually like the stock chrome housings) but it adds a Sportive flair to your ride.

Clean car. I'd add a pair of side skirts and call the exterior complete.
Keep us posted on the 'sounds & other mods!!!!!
