Hello Passport Forum - just picked up this Elite. Absolutely loving it! Traded in a 2017 Ridgeline RTL-E and no regrets. Wanted to do it when they first came out but had the dreaded “Dealer Market Adjustment” of $4000. Now they are marking it down that much. Definitely paid to wait a few weeks $$$.

Congrats, Gil. That your coming from a '17 Ridgeline will make you a valuable member here as you are familiar with the platform.

Update: ceramic tinted fronts, body side moulding and lighted running boards. And lovin’ it more every day!

Car looks great Gil, congratulations. Glad to hear that more reasonable offers are starting to pop up at dealers. Black on white theme is a very clean look.

how did you black out?

how did you black out?

Plasti Dip Gloss Black. Don’t give me too much credit tho - I let a professional do it. Watched YouTube vids, watched him and I’m glad I left it to professionals.

Ask the XPL guy about it, they might be able to wrap it in black...

Hey Steve - I actually did send Craig an email today.
I figured out of any car enthusiast people I know here, he’d be one who’d know someone.
If I don’t hear from him tomorrow, will give him a call.

Thanks Gil!
I will give him a shout tomorrow.

Did you do the front H emblem and chrome on the side mirrors as well?

Just the back 3. Front has radar so didn’t want to mess w it. I also thought about blacking our exhaust tips but decided to pass.

Gotcha. That’s what I’ve heard about the front H.

I’d also be interested in a matte finish on the black gloss wheels. I’ve read it can run about $800 and possibly peel. If I can get new wheels (once these continental tires start to wear) already done for $200-300, it might not be worth the time or cost?
