Default DaveB is a funny man...

So DaveB and I were chit chatting today over the phone and he was trying to make me produce OEM Optional Side Skirts out of hopes and dreams.

Little did he know, I actually do have a New-In-Box complete set of the Optional Body Kit which includes the front, the rears, and the sides. (Before you flood my inbox, THEY ARE NOT FOR SALE! They're for research and testing. )

So I asked Dave what would he do for it? Would he run for a mile? Swim for a 1/4 mile? Eat a bowl of worms? I'm not going to share what his responses were, but how bad do you guys want something like this?

It seems like it's a seasonal item. When one person inquires about them, the entire message forum does also.

So WWYDFAOEMOEBK?

About 3 years ago when they were readily available, I was selling them at $500 plus shipping for the entire set.

I would kill everyone else who was in contention for them, would I win then?

Dude, it'd SOOOO be worth the 50 consecutive life sentences.

They best on black Hype R's (which we all know are a figment of our collective imagination), but that's not saying they look all that good.

But whatever Bitch ends up doing, be sure to tape it

I'd run 5 miles, swim as long as I could and eat a bowl of worms... It'd have to be in that order though cuz if we reversed it the results wouldn't be pretty.

back in the day (2000 - when I bought my itr brand new), Radley Acura in VA had their oem optional equipment bodykits for sale for $499 shipped iirc, this was for both side skirts, the front lip, and the rear valences.

I bought it online and they shipped it to my door. I sold the front lip for $250 brand new in box.....

I'd prefer to get an INGS+1 or CWEST, etc bodykit than pay the high cost people want to sell them for these days.....
