Very clean. I swear I fall in love everytime I see a nice clean lowered outback

 

We should all get together and start a lowered obxt-only club, call ourselves the Rolling Contradictions.

 

And citka, sweet ride, what are the wheel/tire specs? offset?

Yeah, the NSX is part of the Honda/Acura past. I am trying to get the wife to give into the Subie bug too.

 

The suspension is Tockico Adjustables (LGT Spec, not OBXT) with swift springs. Wheels are BBS RE's 18x8 with a 50 offset (IIRC). Tires are a 235/40. I'd love to get 10" wide rims for the rear, but I think that's a little impractical for a daily driver. As much as I like 18x10's on the back of the NSX, it's a bitch on the freeway with ruts in the road. Tends to wander too much.

Looks so good, I love how dark it is.

 

Did you get into an accident or just decide to shave the rear emblem? I love that look and can't wait to do it to my wagon, although can't justify it until I want get crazy with the exterior.

 

Also did you spray those tails with VHT niteshade or how did you tint them? They look really good also, I did mine with that product, I think I want to get some red smoked valenti's and do the same.

No, no accident. I've always shaved all the badges off the cars I drive. I like the clean look. I took off that piece from the tailgate when I did the sound deadening install and dropped it off at my painter's shop. He removed the badge, filled the indent and painted over it along with the chrome strip. It's much cleaner in my opinion.

 

 

The tails were done by a paint guy as well. VHT niteshade is too sloppy and not smooth for my taste. The guy who I had do mine used a black tinted clear coat and sprayed them as you would when you paint a car. VERY smooth coating and clean. They did a nice job.

I love that clean look also and I would agree it looks awesome. I didn't realize you could just take that back panel off. Either way I won't be doing that for a little while. Kudos to you though man great job.

 

I have also never heard of someone tinting lights with a clear that's tinted, but that totally makes sense. I am assuming you can still see the light just as well as you would with the VHT is that correct, or maybe even a little better than the VHT because of how clear it is?

You should ask the paint guy that did the tails if he is willing to do the tail lights for some of the members here. I'd be on that list as they look awesome!

 

Now take that top wing off (it's easier than the tail gate panel) and unbolt the brake light and have him work his magic on it too. I used red Lamin-X on mine and it blends with my wing:
