Talking Upcoming Mods!!!

Well I will be spending a fair amount of time over the next few weeks in my garage working on a few new mods for the X!!

On the list are:

Install Supersprint Exhaust
10.5 Inch ARE Replica Type 87's w/ 315 Toyo's up front
PIAA Horns
Install Dinan CAI (once I get it powdercoated)
New hood locks to replace the rusted old ones
Install fuel venting valve (Finally!!! No more SES Light!!!)
Roof rack delete.... (still debating this one)

I will get some pictures on here once I am done.....

I just recently noticed that the '07 Acura MDX's and Mazda CX7's and CX9's do not have roof racks. They look a lot sleeker without the racks - aesthetically, it looks good. If you don't need the racks, go for it! The Acura build your car webpage might give you a rough visual on what to expect.

But I carry alot of stuff (bikes, lumber, etc.); I can't do without racks.

Welll... I actually found it on Ebay. I guess the rest of you guys were asleep at the wheel!! The system was used for three months and it cost only..... $850 shipped!!

TooHot where are those pics?? Searched but no luck... Where did you buy the plugs for the holes? Did you paint them body color? Oh, what bulbs do you have in your headlights???

Man that looks sick! How does it handle with the big boys all the way around? Do you have any problems with tire rub when you turn the wheel to lock?
