Update. Calipers are still good. No chips or anything to be concerned about. I recently added the oem window visors and changed the exhasut tips. I'll get some pics of the visors later. Meanwhile here are some pics of the tips. Anyone know if the oem tips are resonated? When I changed these out the exhaust as a more pronounced tone. I'l get a better shot of the rear too.

Thanks both of you. I had been looking for staggered quad tips thjat could fit the aspec opening for about a year now. Took alot of searching but I finally found them. I got them from here:

You have to email them for price since it's not listed on the website. It might be different for different shipping locations too but I paid $106 shipped. I spoke to Terrance C. and Mandy Hsu

Thanks! And yea I plan on it. Right after we welded the other tip on we realized we didnt get them perfectly even, so I have to take the car back up there to get that corrected. Once I get it corrected I'll post the pic. Don't want to put non perfection up 
To the untrained eye you can't tell but as a forum of all car enthusiasts I'm sure it would be noticeable. Only person who's been able to tell in person was my cousin and the welder.

Once I saw your exhaust tips, I didn't hesitate to order them. Just as you were, I was looking for quad tips that could fit and I'm glad you found them. Thanks again

Got a few goodies in this past week. I went with the Ralco Stock Size Lightweight Crank pulley.The gains were definitely noticeable! The car accelerated alot faster and felt alot lighter on it's feet.
About 4 days later I installed the RV6 Longtube Jpipe. WHOA!
The car is much quicker now. Doesn't take much for it to move now and it feels much more powerful. Best performance mod for the RL by far. I'll get some pictures and video soon. Probably this weekend.

Next I'm going to do the 09 sway bar, tvandnav2go, aspec spoiler, debadge,and full brake job. I might might MIGHT do a stage two exhaust mod like the TLS guys do just to get a little throatier exhaust note. But I'll need two magnaflow resonators instead of one and will probably get a longer one than what they get.
After that I'm just going to keep her clean and well maintained. Oh and I might try and get the wood steering, cupholder and center, and attempt to find a used 09+ climate thing. But those are much further in the future

A lot of LEDs have a resistor that will block the code. Nice look! I forget, do you have clear corners, or did you just take out the ambers?

@ "magic man" I think what 007 is saying is what happened here. Theres possibly already a resistor in the led bulb that helped keeping the code from throwing. The leds only cost me $9.95 too 007- Thanks! I just have the ambers out but I painted the chrome that was behind the amber with tint spray. So its like a black chrome. Reflects the led really nicely. I still plan on making clear corners for our cars.

I would tell you to get right on that, but I have yet to start making the DRL switch like I wanted.
Still, you need to get right on that.

I was just searching around at different exhaust tip setups and came across your thread. Do you think the exhaust shop mounted the tips on the wrong sides? If you look at pretty much any other quad tip setup you'll find that the longer tip is on the inside and the shorter tip on the outside. This is so the staggered tips run more with the curvature of the rear bumper. If you look at this picture of a TL-S you can see what I mean.
Did you mean to put the longer tip on the outside?

Thanks 97BlackAckCL I havent really done much as of late. Been concentrating on the house (need to take pics of that for ramblings) and some maintenance. I did the diff changes and spark plugs. Will be doing the 3x3 on the transmission soon. I'm still looking for a wood steering wheel also. I may have a couple of small fall mods coming though. I saw a mini android PC that might be worthwhile.
Should be purchasing a 09-10 TSX soon as well, hoping to lightly mod that starting next year.

Just picked this up last Thursday . Looks good next to the RL in the driveway
Yes the regular exhaust opening is smaller and oval while the aspec opening is larger and rectangular.
I had a shop weld them on for me for ~$60.

fit Aspec exhaust opening. So is the regular exhaust opening different? Because I looked at those exhausts and they look pretty damn nice. And for a price of around $106, that's pretty good. Did you install them yourself, or had a dealer install them for you? If so, how much did it cost?

Thanks man! I already ordered all of the leds (interior and exterior), an amp wiring kit, and some black oem floor mats (to go with the two tone interior)
Otherwise, I want to do the oem sport bumpers, aspec wheels (or some other 18" oem wheel), a drop, clear headlights, vled switchbacks, and larger exhaust tips. Performancewise I don't think I will do anything. if I do, it'll be the RV6 downpipe and a crank pulley and thats it.
