Nice max, not a huge fan on the look of the steeling wheel cover; as long as it's comfortable

Hey esco115, you should back out your roof. I saw a Max that's the same color as yours and it looked sick with a black roof. Wasn't sure if it was the Prem. package tho. Getting mine blacked out this summer with a black stillen roof spoiler.

^ compared to a base model yes as it has the sport tuned suspension, but its all factory TL Type S... The sport suspension on the Acura is alot harsher then the sport suspension on the Max...

Added the 370z bbk setup, fairly easy to do most of it is direct fit. I wanted to keep the factory 19's (for winter) so I had to put spacers to clear the calipers. Weather been ****ty so this is all I have...enjoy!

^ Pretty sure it was the OP who revived the thread.

But I'm also curious about where you scored the 370 BBK.

Nissan dealership?
