VIP Acura CL Type S

[VIP CL S]

Sup guys my name is J.R and this is my 01 Acura.

I've seen some pretty aggressive TL's out there, but not many CL's.

Anyway, I just got these wheels (as a starter set). They are 19x9.5 +35 offset all around with a 3.25" lip. I want to negative camber it enough so it'll tuck into the fenders but still be aggressive.

Here's a test fitment on the front of the car.

O.k thanks for looking guys hope you enjoy, and I look forward to hearing from you guys on how I can improve my build/project. Thanks for looking.

those wheels good. Always thought the cl's had a lot of potential.

Oh lord the lip kit!!! Looks so clean dude. If these wheels don't sit, slam and tuck the way I want, the lip kit will be the final phase to give it the slammed look!

Word dude, lip kits on cl's make them look 100x better

Unequivocally, yes. How much did that run you & its all molded on correct?

Sup dude sorry for the very late response, been busy modifying my car.

I would love to get my hands on some Leon Hardiritt Orden's one day, that's my dream. Anyway, here are some updated pics of my project. Since my last post, I have done the following:

EZ Front Lip
OEM TL side skirts
03 CL Headlights
Plastidipped Front Grill
Carbon Fiber Vinyl Wrap where "A" for Acura was
Dremeled lower portion of front bumper for "Big Mouth" look

Its sitting on Ground Controls with Koni Yellows right now, but this is the maxed out drop which is why I'm ordering BC BR Extreme Drop coilovers tomorrow and I'll be running a 12k spring rate up front and 8k in the rear for a slammed static VIP look.

Now, onto the pics:

Before I changed to 03 CL headlights:



This is how low I'm going to get it when my BC Coilovers come in:





Just a rolling shot my buddy took:



After I got the 03 CL headlights and how it sits on a flat surface. Can't stand that wheel gap, it will be slammed so low when I get my BC's.



Any suggestions or feedback on what BC spring rates I should go with would be very much appreciated. I am not sure if I should get a stiffer spring rate.

Thanks for looking guys.
