So I added 1 emblem to my car. It's the Honda emblem on the trunk instead of the Acura emblem.

Wow Spike I know you are having a lot of fun with this car. Does it really matter the brand of the carbon fiber hood isn't carbon fiber just carbon fiber. Or is it like lips and the right brand means the right fit?

Thanks every one. This hood lines up really nice, just sucks there's no holes to put the weather stripping from the OEM hood onto this one, but it's cool, I'll make it go on,lol.

I'm going to be doing the same with mine, we'll see how it turns out. I'm buying HID's tonight, and a JDM front end on the 30th for it and putting it on myself I can't wait.

So I got my 36 LED 1157 super white bulbs in on money, and I put them in. What a difference, just sucks now that when you put on your turn signal, it flashes fast,lol. Here's a picture of the bulbs. I'll get a picture tonight of them on.

They do that because how they use such less power, so by putting LED's in thats going to happen, I'm going to get a set for my tail lights aswell, and then add some side markers in LED's aswell.

Are they just simple plug and play? that's it?

I was considering getting rid of my clear corner lights because they looked so dim compared to my HID's at night time. If these are bright and are simple, I'm going to order some.

i like what u did with the led bulb
i did the same but u got 36 points
i dont remember how much i got maybe 15 led points
but ya man mine look nice at nite, urs must look even crazier
make sure u match it with the other bulb too
or else it will look cheesy cause the inner bulb will look brighter than the outer bulb when they are blinking

They are all super white in color, just the other lights look brighter at night, but not by much, they are close in color.
