Wait so that’s a wrap or it’s replacement trim pieces? I’ve seen a bunch of people wrapping their “wood” on the new crv with vinyl and carbon too.

I’ve used a number of different carbon vinyls over the years on a bunch of projects. I’d like to see how it compares in thickness/strength/scratch resistance etc.

I use vinyl rap on my VFR 800 tank to keep it from scratching the paint

Nothing special, but I bought some dupli-color scratch fix all in 1.
It's been needed after driving my car in those tight parking spaces around my college

its pretty thick compared to the 3m gloss black i used on the grill, but heat mostly smoothed it out

Sorry no pics, i was working my *** off today. But today i did most of a tune up on my wife's 97k 2014 pathfinder. Tranny flush, brake flush, front rotors and pads (unrelated issue), power steering flush, oil change, spark plugs (fml) and an air filter. The spark plugs are a pita, you gotta remove the engine cover (not a big deal), forward air inlet, top of the airbox, throttle body and intake manifold..... just so you can reach the back 3 plugs. Not to mention the plethora of connectors, bolts and clips shop nothing breaks. Glad those spark plugs are good for 100k...i don't wanna dip them again ever, lol. But im glad that her recently paid off whip will run for another 100k or so.

NSX Honda super car discounted $20,000 to sell more super cars-How's that for a Mod?

 

[bauer311]

Sounds like the price of a turbo kit for one... is this true? Where did you see it?

 

[mySIck]

It is an added $6,000.00 just to get one in Valencia red pearl or Nouvelle blue pearl.

 

[mySIck]

I just built my own NSX for fun and it would cost 206,898.00+ destination of 1,800

 

[bauer311]

I did it before as well, i was in the 200k range too, and i think I chose white. But it had pretty much every option plus the carbon lip kit

Oil and tranny oil change. Rotated my tires and gave her a scrub down too. Gonna change my plugs Saturday

Got emissions done on the Accord this morning. She passed Good for another 2 years.
