Acura rsx 2002 body kits

:eek: Help!!!!!
I am about to purchase a acura 2002 rsx. But i dont know if I should get there body kit that comes with it. I want to see some other body kits that are out there, but cant seem to find any. It might be that its brand new and people are still working on the body kits or I cant just find any. Can some direct to me to some sites which have some kits?
Any kind of response would be helpful.
Thanks,
krakerjak

Odds are, the price you'll pay for the Honda body trim is about double what you'll pay for similar aftermarket parts. So unless you really, really like the way their parts look, just save your money...

Just my 2¢. :D

Oh, yeah... Welcome to AF!!! :D

:confused: Great, it will be cheaper to get a aftermarket kit.
But where can I get a body kit for the acura rsx 2002?
That is what I need to know?

hmmmmmmmmmm... i love these. got enough money?:sun:

mugen... imported thru king motorsports

Thanks Adam.
That body kit is hot, a lo better than the one coming with it.
I also looked at the Zonda, that is also a hot car.:eek:
But way out of my price range.

Does anybody know of anymore body kits or some performance parts would help also, basically anything you got on the new acura rsx 2002.

Peace out, and thanks again.
krakerjak:smoka:

yeah man, www.carismaautotec.com has a hot body kit, they rn't really up yet, but soon it'll be for sale, also clubrsx.com has the jdm spec type r kit for the rsx. L8

Will the aftermarket body kit void the warranty??

y would it void the warranty, u don't buy body warranty, only engine and electronics, stuff like that, and u can always bolt ur stock body back on. ask the dealer, if u ask them they r usually cool w/ it. my acura dealer said they would be cool w/my getting intake and stuff like that on my new type S. as long as they did it. maybe its the same case w/the body kit.

aight just wanted to make sure they arent gay like that




thanks!:alien:

Yea buddy, save your money......the car has been out for about 6 months and there are already 3 offical body kits, and i know for a fact at LEAST another 2 more are coming out in the spring.....unless you can get a really good deal on it (like free) dont bother, because odds are that you're going to see something else that you REALLY like.....get that.
Thats what im doing.

are there any bodykits shown on the web anywhere? id like to see them...:help:

King is great....I live by them and they are they only place to go for mugen....I can show you some good JDM body kits for the DC5...but I doubt you could find them anywhere in the US:D

www.clubrsx.com have some good ones.....

Well if you were in Canada I'd suggest SpoilersTO ,
great prices and quality.

I have some links to some Japanese sites that show Integra Type-R body kits so I'll post them up as soon as I get off work.:D

Yo man im buying a RSX to and ive been looking around for bodykits and i personally think the airforce1 bodykit by CARISMA is the best looking for the money!
hope this helps u out

Hey ive seen some really cool bodyktis that are coming out.. unfortunately i dont exactly kno how to put pictures on this site.. some of the companies that are coming out are:
HKS
5Zigen
C-WEST (my fav. body kit)
Mugen
and some others
if the bodkits arent out already they should be coming out soon.

www.aerotrends.com has the airforce bodykit and i think some others.. might want to check that site out..

if u want any of the pics from list of comps. i can email them to u or u can got to www.overboost.com adn then go to the event coverage and then to the SEMA event.. they have pics and info on some bodykits that companies showed for the RSX

so i would save my money if i was u

mugen and c-west

This may take quite a long time to get all the pics that I've found posted but, here goes.

Pics of body kits.

Next.

I don't know the exact names of each and every one. I am sure you will be able to figure it out.

Next. I saw this one at the LA Auto Show.

These are some nice kits. The prices that I saw were high but with every new thing, if you want to be first there is a price to pay.

The question may arise, why is this guy Dahmin8 helping out on the Acura RSX forum?

I really like the look of the RSX. I sat in one today at a dealership and was amazed at the leg room inside. That alone is a selling point for me.

When the new gen eclipse came out I went to a local dealer and was shocked by the cramped seating. Mustangs were a problem too.

I'm a former '81 RX-7 owner and never liked bang my head when getting in or out of the car. But, it was fun to drive. This is my dilema. I currently own an '90 Accord LX. It has quite a bit of modification to it. Just not enough power for my liking.

I'll probably check out the S2000 to see how roomy it is. I'm just concerned about bangin' my head and leg room.

I'll probably check out this forum again if I happen to buy the RSX Type S of course. :flash:

Well there were a lot more spoiler pics out there. But you guys are interested in Body kits. THE END.:sun:

HERE ARE A FEW MORE KITS.

The first one's headlights scream Merc with those eyelids... But I like the Wings West kit on the last one.

does anyone know what kind of body kit is on the silver rsx with the carbon hood, above the yellow one?thanks.

Just wait. There will be all kind of kit's for the RSX. The stock kit is just too plain.;)

the body kit with the carbon fiber hood is an import adrenaline body kit.... i think..... here is where u can find it http://www.importadrenelin.com/Acura_RSX.htm , also wings west is coming out with a new body kit in febuary.... its hot

Those are some nice kits.

I've been have'n the same problem finding body kits etc.. for the RSX.. I'm getting a Type-S in November unless the Type-R comes out this summer like I've read elsewhere.. but anyways.. here's what I've found as far as body kits for the RSX.


Well, first, Wings West has a body kit and has pics of it on their website http://www.wingswest.com They have 2 different versions of it.. with fender flares and without.. It's called the G5 Series... Available 2/2/02. They also make a knock off of the JDM RSX Type-R Spolier, which I think looks pretty tite... The main thing is Wings West is about the only place I've found that will paint the body kit for you before shipping. They charge $425 for this, but hey, at least you'll know it's done rite... anyways, heres some others.

Here's the real JDM Mugen body kit.. not sure when it's available but lots of pics of it.. http://www.kingmotorsports.com/king/projects/rsx/ The only thing with this one is it's pretty pricey from what I hear... Like $950 for just the front bumper. OUCH! :eek:

Ok, next one I found is here: http://www.importfan.com/subcatmfgprod.asp?0=360&1=375&2=1153
Actually this page has 2 body kits.. the first one is the AirForce 1 body kit which is pretty tite and resonable priced but the other is really nice buy WAY overpriced.. check it out...

Ok, and lastly, Bomex says they're make'n a full body kit for the rsx available Jan/Feb 2002.. Still no pics up yet, but I hope it's cool.. you can check here to see if it's available yet...
http://www.bomexaero.com/newprod.htm

That's all I've found so far as far as body kits are concerned... so whatcha think.. I'm lean'n twards the Importfan AirForce1 body kit myself... Can't really decide yet..

Anyways, hope this helps!!

Those some nice kits.

yes those r nice kits... i like the wings west one alot, i am also going to get a type s probly n december, if they did release a type r if its not to expensive i may get that instead... but im afraid it will be to expensive

Does anyone know a site that has info on the release of the RSX type R?

Ya, I like the wings west kit, I just wish they would have done a little more with the front bumper than just adding a lip... But hey, guess we can't have everything.. Unless the kit Bomex comes out with is a show-stopper... Oh, and I don't expect the RSX Type-R (if it actually makes it here) will be that much more expensive.. The ITR was only about $3k more than the GSR.. so there shouldn't be too much of a difference with the RSX I'd think... Anyways, cross'n my fingers for the bomex kit... peace... :D

Well, here's where I read that the rsx type-r will be coming to the US..
http://www.streettuners.com/2002_models/type_r_2002_pg1.htm

It's actually a review of the 2002 Civic Type-R but it mentions that we should expect to see the Civic and the RSX Type-R in the summer of 2002. But who know.. they may be full of crap and they don't actually know either.. Take it as you will.. Well, actually, here's a quote directly from the article:

"Expect to see the 2002 Civic Type R
come to America sometime in the summer
of next year (2002).
We can eagerly await the coming of the new Supercars from the Honda / Acura stable. When both the Acura RSX Type R and the 2002 Civic Type R
come to American showrooms to be onset upon by Tuner Enthusiasts."

And here's a link to a ton of pictures of the RSX Type-R if yer interested.. or obsessed like me.. :silly2:

Ya, I've been obsessed with Honda's and Acura's forever.. I just found this forum and everyone seemed pretty cool, so I thought I'd try and give some feedback on the stuff I know.. I love pimp'n out Honda's and Acura's.... what can I say, I'm a junkie..

Does anybody know where i can get alteezas for the RSX?????? I have seen a pic of them somewhere, and also i have seen a pic of a super, or turbocharger for one but i havent found where i could buy that either...... thanks

altezza's are available through APC.. http://www.4apc.net or through someone else that sells APC Products. Ummm.. As far as Turbos.. there are a few "Demo RSX's" out there (HKS for example) that have turbos but they're not going to be released for sale for several months.. they're still not fully tested for reliability and all that bs.. so in the mean time, we can just drool over all the hype...
