Default fender liner came out....WTF!!

basically, for some reason my wheel well came out..i guess the bolts ripped through it or something..i was just wondering if anyone knew where i could get a replacement...with the bolts..cuz their gone i think. the funny thing is..i feel like the car is faster with it off, but looks ghetto. hope the pic works. im pretty sure this doesnt happen often.

mine got ripped after so many cone hits during autox. it ripped loose while i was on track at vir and it got stuck behind the wheel. it didn't affect ontrack performance (i didn't hear anything either), but it did wear a gaping hole in the line. a few zip ties and it hasn't moved since.

Wow, I have one of those laying in my garage. Mine came off, and under it is a seam where two pieces are welded together, its like a knife edge, cut a deep groove in my tire where it was rubbing when the suspension was fully loaded. I haven't replaced it yet, but I raised the car up so it doesn't rub, it was too low anyway, but it did ruin my tire, so WATCH OUT.

If the Da Butt Dyno says it's faster then just leave it off.

But you might wanna take the other side off for the aerodynamic effects and who knows, you might even be quicker when you even it out.

the reason i say that it seems faster is cuz more air might possibly be sucked into my icebox without that cover over the tube..

also..is there a difference between the jdm itr fender lines and the usdm?
because i do have the jdm front..jsut didnt think there was a difference between the fender lines.

I was just going to ask if you have a JDM nose on your R. Yes, USDM is different that JDM. I have the same issue - JDM nose with USDM liners, and ripped one out. USDM will work tho, just put some extra screws and/or clip nuts in the front edge. You may have to drill a hole in the bumper cover in order to do this.

This was the problem with mine - The USDM liner does not line up perfectly with the holes in the liner, so the former owner did not install these lower screws. This allows air pressure to pull the leading edge of the liner away from the buumper shell lower edge. Once this happens at speed, the front edge of the liner rolls back, catches a schlode of air, the rips loose from the upper fasteners and is pulled into the tire. Just get a new or used USDM and some fasteners from Len, plus some clip nuts and screws from Autozoned, and bolt it back in right. It should stay with the leading edge screws in (mine has at 140 mph).

I just ordered one from the dealership that Len works at for $54 dollars and then a couple bucks for the clips. Beat the hell out of the $98 Leith Acura wanted to charge me.

It looks the passenger side.. if it is than your theory is incorrect...

they do fall off if enough of the snaps break... like realtyper's..
