That looks amazing. Which cover is that?
Just out visiting a friend today
What??? Never heard of that color! Original?
But it's good - then I still don't know of anyone but mine in color and year i Eu. You know of any?

Yep it's an original colour, possibly a UK only colour? I think there might be a couple more but not many. Your NSX look's great, the colour's are pretty similar, MB look's a little lighter?

I was on the fence with getting the Marga side because they don't match the oem rear valance but the ones you have goes perfectly well with them. Plus I don't think I could survive with those sides being that low hahaha.
Sick! More Pics and a video of you getting out your drive way and cruising the streets!
I have a love hate relationship with the Marga sides...they're nice and aggressive but hang too low to the ground which prevents me from going lower in the rear. The rears are I's Impact spates and flow nicely with the sides versus factory rear valence. And showing Prime members of me pulling out of the driveway...I would probably get crucified. LOL!!
Aren't you missing some bolts on the bar?
It looks like this version is bolted on directly to the "tower" and uses the same screws as the suspenssion, look at the driver's side.
I found a better picture:

Yes exactly. Brylek is right. Those holes normally are spots that the factory bar mounts to, but the STMPO bar replaces these two end pieces altogether, bolts to the rear struts themselves. Why the holes are there, I have no idea. I, will put some short bolts in them for looks. Ross often did things like this because if he sees a part unnecessary, he simply replaces or incorporates it to save weight. For example, his front brace replaces the heavy factory tow hooks with built in tow hooks of its own. So you add his brace, and you've added a minor amount of weight because you remove something heavy. Other companies don't do this.
I have the same skirts (well Vinnys but same same) and the thing I hate on my car is how "bulky" the front chunk is on the skirt after the door. Not pretty.

Please consider keeping it stock
There are so few stock NSX's left some need to be preserved.

You're too late Jim... That car is already not stock.
LOL for sure! That car looks far from stock... NSX-R wing, full lip kit, etc etc. If 91ish as the wheels point too... this car isn't even oem color.
Myself on the other hand... just picked up a 100% OEM bone stock blk/blk Targa. Stock as in 8ft electric antenna, stock airbox, radio, exhaust, 4wd springs, everything. Not one mod! 2 owners 50k miles all documented! Clean carfax and autocheck too.
Edit: I can't wait to slam it!! haha

You guys and your stock cars LOL ~ we don't own a single stock car. My buddy and I always compare notes and now that he's got a Sienna AWD minivan, he continues to mod with the latest gadgets.
No offense to stock owners but IMO is stock means time to drive a Buick

A stock NSX can also be considered showing respect for the thousands of hours the designer and engineers spent developing and refining the car.
And we continue to enjoy those refinements as we rack up the maintenance free miles.
Shigeru Uehara urged owners to learn how to take their NSX's to it's limit and become expert drivers.
Improve ourselves as drivers before spending money on performance modifications that are beyond our skill level.
I can honestly say my driving skills are not up to my stock NSX limits so I don't spend thousands of dollars on say a suspension system that is beyond my ability to use?
Putting on body kits/big wings and other bling that doesn't improve the performance of a car is a mystery to me.
However I accept that some people would put a big wing on a 57 Chev or 63 Sting Ray or, if rich enough, a Ferrai 250 GTO.

Jim I agree with you and Mr. Uehara. But... When you love your car it's very hard to resist not doing anything to it. I like my car more now as it just looks and performs better to me but I have total respect for stock and guys like yourself that believe in that philosophy.
