this is the site i purchased it from, i got two rolls because someone on the forum mentioned it took them 1.5 rolls to do the job.

Cool. I wonder if those chrome trims are removable... I could try painting them. Eh, I guess the tape would be easier.

I just read somewhere else that the tape shrunk after time and heat. Hmmm....

ive heard the strips are pretty difficult to remove and ive seen some reviews were people were happy with the outcome of the tape. my opinion is that it is a cheap mod and since it is just a tape, if some thing were to go wrong you just peel it off and think of a different way of approaching it.

I've actually done the mod with the blackout tape already. Check my profile for the pics of it. Its easy as hell to do. The tape is cheap (price wise) and if it does shrink or whatever, just reapply. Mine has been on the car since last September.

That does look nice! I'm tempted to call Autozone and see if they have any!

Edit: Ok maybe this is something found only online. There aren't any local stores that have it.

Check PepBoys. Sometimes they have this off the wall shit.

What kind of differences did you get with your car's handling? Also, is there a DIY on this site somewhere that shows what parts I need (part numbers specifically)?

I went to an Acura parts store, and they have like a million different parts just for the RSB, lol. Also, should I get the 20mm or just the 17mm one?

20 mm. http://acuraautomotiveparts.org/acura/jsp/mws/prddisplay.jsp?inputstate=5&catcgry1=TL&catcgry2=2005&catcgry3=4DR+SPORT+SUMMER+TIRE&catcgry4=KA6MT&catcgry5=REAR+LOWER+ARM&ListAll=All&vinsrch=no&systemcomp=&vinnoT=&trim=&trans=&view=normal  part #'s 3,4 & 5.

awesome, thanks. do I need two of item numbers 4 and 5?

[Icebox]

yep

[Jeff Likes Bagels]

awesome, i'm going to convince my parents to get it right now, lol. $53.76 total, that's a really good price! My parents are hard to convince, lol, even when I tell them that I'm paying for it! Maybe if I give them the exact price

tell them that this mod is for safety reasons, when your car goes around turn it has body roll ( where the car rolls away from the turn ). replacing the sway bar allows your car to hug the ground better creating better cornering and control.
