Paul,

I had the ClearCorners headlights for almost 2 years; I had no problems with any of my ClearCorners LED conversions. I do agree they are very pricey, but no one has a cleaner conversion yet. ClearCorners do quality work and there is tons of labor involved in the conversion.

I have a Dali radiator duct, but there are many NSX with type R hoods and no radiator duct. Downforce also sells a NSX-R duct copy too in fiberglass and carbon fiber.

Good luck with you project,
 
Chris,

Your car is amazingly nice. How much total for the whole project? I want to put the Stacy side skirts like yours, with door panels would better vs. w/o the panels? Thank you

I like the Stacy side skirts with the door panels, it looks more aggressive than the OEM 02 side skirt. The front bumper, door panel and rear valence lines flows together.

I don't even want to think or add up the total amount in this NSX.
 
Car looks nice, Chris. I like the look of previous Volks better. By the way, this is Ken, who bought the Forrester from you. Hey... you still owe me a ride. :)

Ken,

I haven't see you at Summit Point, I got these new wheels because of weigth mostly. They are alot lighter than my old Work Emotion CR wheels. The RE30, I am saving 5lbs on each front wheel and 8lbs on each of the rear wheel.

They are not both from Volk Racing, only the RE30.

Thanks, I didn't know. What brand is the other wheel? Where can I buy RE30's from in a different color?


Chris you must love how light these wheels are, can you tell a big difference while driving it?

Yes I can tell a difference with the RE30 on straight line acceleration. I would like to say better handling and improved braking to justified the cost of the wheels, but I can't tell a huge differences.

I was shooting for Friday, but I needed to make a few last adjustments on them so they will ship out early next week (monday/tuesday).

Happy holidays Chris, I cant wait to see these on your NSX!

Cheers,
Mike / ClearCorners.Com

I just picked up a set of volk gt-p's in a 17X8 +41 front and a 18x10 +43 rear from a forum member. I'm curious what tire sizes you where running and if you had any rubbing issues. BTW your car looks great. Also what rear spoiler is that?

Thanks,
Matt

I had the same size and offset and had no issues with rubbing, just make sure you use 215/40/17 tires up front. 235/40/17 will rub inside fenders.

My old rear spoiler was a Comtech widebody wing. I currently have a DownForce NSX-R wing.
 
I got my Clear Corner taillights in the mail today.:biggrin:

:eek: Looks great, I had Mike remove all the raise lettering from the taillights and polish the lens. I can't believe it, they look better than new.:eek:
 
Congrats Chris

You will love them. The taillights are one of my favorite mods. The only downside is you will rarely see it since you're driving.

My headlights get sent off next week for the conversion
 
Wow it looks so good. well done.
