A picture would be worth at least a few more words......

I believe marlowr had another topic with a picture of a rather homely brush bar. That might have been someone else.

I am still looking for an article I read about the ML and the fact that some grille guards might delay or prevent the proper operation of air bag sensors.

finally got around to resize the pix

Here's my Manik Brush guard, side tube steps, and tail lights grille setup. pretty easy to do, no drilling required....

Very nice!! Mind telling us how much it set you back?

 

[marlowr]

Hey MDXtrous, Perry from bestdarnparts.com gave me a good deal. I paid $740 for all including delivery. Delivery is quick and fast, took about 3 days. By the way, how did your setup go with streeteffects? Do you have some pic? I dig your ride dude!

 

[MDXtrous]

Great price!! The install's gone great. You can just click on my signature links to look at the pics.

Hmmm

Is it also sold without the headlight protectors? I wonder if 7Plus could put his talent to work and take off the headlight protection parts and put it on a light colored MDX for comparison?

Could you get a photo of the mounting details underneath? I am really curious where they mount these.

... and take off the headlight protection parts ...

Color change on this image would take too long.

Thanks for the picture, but I was actually asking to remove the side bars all together and just leace the center portion.

By the way ... how long did it take you to master Photoshop and is it difficult to learn for a somewhat computer capable person?

I don't like it. Too bulky. take a look here for a digital bull bar http://www.acuramdx.org/forums/showthread.php?postid=66069#post66069

As far as Photoshop goes, I've never taken a class but these types of things are fairly easy. The tools I mainly use in PS are the rubber stamp, layers, transformation, and the eraser tool. Very basic, with time you can do this kind of stuff. Now color correction, preprint production, and photoediting are the tough stuff.

 

[MK23666]

Thanks again 7Plus. You are right ... it is a little too bulky.

I wonder if Acura ever considered offering the MDX's front bumper guard without the fog light surrounds. That might have look a little better.

That's exactly what I thought when I saw one with a bumper guard in the front yesterday. If they made a bull bar of that shape, it would be awesome ...
