    got quote for some maint. for nc1

    The engine air filters are very easy, even for me, who would not attempt the other items. Be aware though that the air filters are not symmetrical. If I remember correctly the thicker portion of the air filter goes in 1st. The latches to lock the upper end of the air box to the bottom...

    Carbon fiber roof for 2019

    I took some photos of my roof sbkim. I'm not sure how to download photos to this site. sbkim, if you can dm me your cell number, I can text you the photos attached to my text. Note that the matte finish wrap has a slight texture to it; like tiny ribs. You have to touch the wrap to notice...

    Carbon fiber roof for 2019

    I'll try and take some photos this w/e. I don't think it would take long but can't be sure. I had red pinstripes put on the front edge of my front spoiler, side skirts, rear lower strakes, wrapped the roof in the carbon fiber wrap, the upper of my side mirrors in red to match the red...

    Carbon fiber roof for 2019

    The place I used was 4K Automotive Solutions. They had a matte carbon wrap and they did an excellent job working around my "shark fin" XM radio appendage. They are a very small shop (husband and wife) located in the western suburbs. 725 N Princeton Ave., Unit B., Villa Park, IL 630-287-0140...

    Carbon fiber roof for 2019

    FWIW, I didn't like the stock NC1 gloss black painted roof. Too hard to maintain without swirls etc. Also my 2018 NC1 has the carbon fiber rear spoiler that's matte carbon. I was able to find a wrap that was very similar to the spoiler; black carbon fiber matte, and the cost for the wrap...

    Just a young boy wanting an NSX

    I also was in a position where the odds were stacked against me. I was also working minimum wage jobs, had a large mortgage but I was old! I had suffered economic reverses and was starting at the bottom again. Did I mention I was old? I was working in receiving at a retail store cleaning...

    Rodent Tape?

    For Christmas my son took his own challenge. He ate 5 levels of hot peppers. The hottest pepper had a heat rating of 1,600,000 scoville heat units. He does everything over the top. He has run a 24 hour ultra marathon in which he ran over 100 miles in 24 hours. I just hope he doesn't...

    Other than Oil Changes what maintenace have you done?

    https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=6674612849260049&set=pcb.3667210223523420 This lady had the oil changed on her NC1 in Colorado for $240. Not quite as low as I paid but given the fact that I had multiple items done at once; maybe they cut me a break. She did provide her own oil though.

    Other than Oil Changes what maintenace have you done?

    I don't think you are correct. I had multiple items done at once. The 3 shields have to be removed for all of the procedures. They don't charge to remove them 3 times. I've seen oil changes for the NSX done and it doesn't take nearly 3 hours.

    Other than Oil Changes what maintenace have you done?

    I paid about $200 for my oil change and $180 for the brake flush. Both done at Acura, by an NSX trained tech fwiw.

    I hope your insurance will consider " the diminished Value" this crash has inflicted on your prime NSX.
