    INT: Acura legend / Acura RL leather grab rails EX/SE only

    Tools:

    - Philips screw driver
    - Flat head screw driver
    - Hands

    Materials:

    - 1986-1990 / 1991-1995 / 1996-2004 acura legend grab rails


    Step one:

    Look at your grab rails and look at how boring they are

    Ahhh yawn what a bore


    Step 2:

    Take your flat head screw driver and pop both caps off



    Step 3:

    Unscrew the grab rail and take it off

    Now compare to the stock one



    Step 4:

    Now swap the black clips onto the leather rail if you gotthem without the clips, if not then skip to step 5



    Step 5: Reinstall and hold on for dear life




    I hope you enjoyed another acura legend inspired DIY

    Type A = Black interior = Grey headliner
    Type B = Grey interior = Grey headliner
    Type C = blue interior = Greyish blue headliner
    Type D = maroon interior = darker shade of tan headliner
    Type G = tan interior = Tan headliner

    Legend headliner color chart

    Type J = grey interior = grey headliner
    Type F = tan interior = tan headliner

        I know, i nearly gave up midway i was having such a hard time

        Really the only reason i made it into a DIY is so people can find these small little mods while they browse through the diy

        I mean.... this is somthing anyone can do themselves lol

              Yes, in addition to "graphite black," 1st gen RLs came with "seagull gray" handles.

                  Not the biggest appearance change ever... what'd be nice is if someone took one of those and re-upholstered it so there might be some visible sewing lines on the bottom. Give it some texture.

                      It has like a snake skin like texture to it, i just didn't take a very good picture

                      It really feels alot nicer then the stock grab rails, they are alot more squishy
