I thought I saw a post stating that Acura had a factory pinstripe set for the mdx with the Acura logo in part of the stripe (like under the rear-view mirror or something? I have not seen any pics of such an accessory or any pinstripe for that matter.
Can anyone speak to the availability and what it looks like?
Here's a picture of the pinstripe with the logo. I'm not too much of a fan of pinstripes, but my wife wanted it, and I think it looks pretty good after all. Let me know if you want any more information or a different picture.
Man, that red looks much redder close up and with the flash! Nice looking MDX.
The Acura dealer in Milwaukee has a pinstripe guy named Sid. He hand paints the pinstripe on and it looks fantastic. It's a $295 option, which is admittedly a little pricey.
When I asked the sales guy if I needed to pick a color, he said they usually let Sid choose it unless I had a strong preference. I said OK and he did the top stripe dark blue and bottom stripe gray on my Silver MDX. It turned out great!
My dealer wanted $195 for a painted on pin stripe which I tought was way too high. I had mine done at a local sign shop for $75. Even got to play around with paint colors and was able to choose from about 12 different stripe formats.

I guess the price one pays can vary. I was at the Pompono Beach, FL dealership getting my initial oil change and I saw an MDX that was just pin-stripped by a 3rd party who comes to the dealership each week. It was painted and looked great - was only $40.
Hi - my base MDX looked a little plain, so we decided to take up the dealer's offer to add the stripes. We went with gold on white - and they look great! It really added to the car. (I later added the door molding which also helped. The price to have the dealer put them on? . . . . FREE. I wouldn't have paid more than $25 before seeing them, and wouldn't have paid more than $50 now that I have seen them.
Next, I'm thinking about chrome side steps. I'd do the running boards if they came in white, but know that chrome will look awesome!
I have a Granite Green Due to arrive in March ordered Dec 1
Open to suggestions on color of pinstripe for GG. Photo would help. BTW DID YOU GUYS KNOW GG WILL BE DISCONTINUED IN 03
I heard from 2 different sources.

No, for you non RV'ers, this has nothing to do with frogs.
I will soon be towing the MDX 4 down behind a MH I just purchased and I am in the process of researching which tow bar, brackets, and braking system to purchase. There are few older threads concerning MDX Dinghy Towing but not any...
Any tips on installing the fender flares? I just bought them from Tim (whose shipping was very fast) at Hondacura World. . .
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.:2:
So I was at the salvage yard getting a replacement fuse box cover and couldn't pass up pulling the fender flares off a 2003 MDX, they cost me $20. I have them sanded down and am working on making new connection tabs for them with some 3m epoxy as most of them seem dry rotted. I'll need to finish...
I want to clean up my engine and got some Gunk engine degreaser in a spray can. The back of it says not to use on asphalt - that means driveways, right? Where would you park your car to use this stuff then? I have a concrete floor garage but don't want the residue to dry and muck up the floor on...
Order away! :D
Quantities at the outset will be limited to the first half dozen or so of each color, but I will of course hold backorders for those who wish to order after stock is exhausted...
