So, in the next few days, I'm picking up a Acura RL (KA9)

I plan to go different route than I normally would. I need a new DD since my last DD got overwhelmed. The hatch go too low and with all the construction out by my house now, I'm taking additional 15min detours to get everywhere...

So I got a call from my uncle about the RL that he has. It was hit on the driver's side and needs a new axle, fender, and headlight. I pick it up in a day or two and I won't make any performance changes except for maybe small stuff, intake and such, but otherwise I will get a set of wheels, lip kit, and a DECENT drop, not slammed.

This is what I would like for it to eventually be. And yes, the car is Black with Black leather interior. :bouncy:

EDIT: Picked up the RL yesterday and gave her a quick bath. Nothing special, but here she is and all she needs is a new ball joint, fender and a headlights and it's ready to go. Got 2 small issues besides that, but a full detail and a little PDR and she will turn out great.

Josh, should register on Acurazine.com they have a RL forum. And a black market where you might be able to find those parts cheap for what you are looking for. Probably one of the best RL forums online.

Tommy told me to join, I plan on it, but I keep procrastinating.

Not a big fan of the new RL's but that body style looks good for sure. Looking forward to seeing what you do to it.
