Default Acura Cl Boredum

im new to the forums and i was really bored today so i decided to mess around with my car today. i bought the car allready boosted and i am tryning to learn more and more about the car everyday. the previous owner told me the basics about the car but there is are many more things on and in the car any ways i decided to take of the bumper. it was only held on by one clamp i preety much uncliped it and pulled and it came right off. here it is



after it came of i decided to finnally tighten the bolts on the sidemarker which were kinda loose also while there if figured out y one side only lights up casue there is no bulb in there.


just wondering can I put HID's in there?

After taking off the bumper i was finnaly able to see the Intercooler, I know it says greedy but i dnt think it is cause there is a spot on the back that is metal not black. so im assuming it was spraypainted black either way the intercoller will go and replaced for a treadstone one possibly dont know yet.



the car is very low as it is so when i removed the bumper is saw that the cold side of the intercooler piping was a little scratched idk if u can really tell



another pic of the front


any question comments or concerns lmk thanks for viewing

That pipe routing on the driver's side looks horrible.

I would be redoing that if I were you. And while your at it the piping on the passenger side looks way longer than necessary.

Are the large metal brackets still mounted on the backside of the bumper? I don't know how a single clamp would be able to hold it on. The bumper weighs something like 70lbs with the brackets and I don't see them mounted to the car either.

And to answer your question about the HID's, yes you can use either plug and play kits or retrofit a proper set of projectors into the stock housing. There are several CL's on Acurazine with both types of headlights.
