Try looking at any autoparts store that stocks parts catering to the "Import Tuner" crowd. You will usually find some universal side marker lights there. Otherwise there are tons on eBay! If I remember correctly, these are made by the "Pilot" brand, about $19

great wheels, fantastic price.

I would second that!

Did you use the center pieces off the pax rims?

Pic of the HID kit and yellow fog lights. Sorry for the dirty bug splattered front. Long drive to Disneyland! Sorry but this is an old pic, minus the MDX wheels.

Are the a04 sensors the same ones that I would use for an 06 Touring, and can I use the lugnuts I am using now on the Pax wheels on the replacement wheels?

Looks like I need to be going this route soon.

My thought is to take the Pax tires of while they have some tread on them, store them, so when I trade it or sell it, I can put them back on, and sell the replacement ones.

Mad Props! Your car looks wicked. I like it. How much was that kit? OEM? And is that sunroof visor OEM also? It looks kinda small. I wish I had hook-ups for my Ody Thanks!

The body kit is the factory underbody. The moonroof visor is actually from an Acura CL it fits with no side overlap so it is more compact than the one for the Odyssey. The headlights are a generic HID kit, probably made in China but does the trick! Cost was only $135. No wire cutting necessary either, just plug and play. I choose the 6000K light output, visabilty greatly improved at night, and in bad weather.

Could you expand on the factory underbody kit?

I really like the subtle improvement to the look.

Re: Honda Frontend Body Kit

I personnally like just the frontend kit as SellnAcura installed.

How much work (time) did it take to install just the frontend kit?

Do the painted colors match up OK? Even on the metallic colors?

Thanks.

I take it you had no issues with the tires being to wide or rubbing anywhere?

You can look for a set of take off's, you can usually find them at your local dealer, just ask the part's department manager. They are usually looking to unload them cheap because they take up alot of space.



Actually, the 18" wheel/tire combo is lighter than the original PAX combo. The PAX weighs about 75lbs each!


Thanks!, The side markers are actually a generic brand you can find at any automotive parts store. I found these at PepBoys they are about $19 and install is very easy. It just involves a small hole for the light, and the wiring is just a simple two wire setup. Just tap into your front turn signal's wiring.



Side and rear bodykit are on order, staytuned!
MDX mirrors have a slightly different sized base. So some modification will be necessary, I'm sure it can be done!


The off the line response is greatly improved! YES! the ride is much improved, less shaking and jarring over bumps. It just feels lighter. I'm waiting to see how much the gas mileage improves.



This is a great option. I called my local Acura parts manager. He's got 4 MDX take offs, but they have the larger (255) tires you mentioned didn't fit well. They aren't willing to mount different tires, so I'd have to buy the rim/tire combo from Acura, then spend more money on tires elsewhere.

Any thoughts as to how to work around this problem?

Thanks.
