Myke,
Is the GE armrest a drop-in affair or do you have to screw it in somehow? I saw a metal bracket on its base.

Not trying to push in on Myke...

The install is online at collegehillshonda.com (diy video)

You have to take the console out of the car, drill a few holes, change a floor bracket under the console and then it all mounts up/bolts in.

Not too hard if you have the drill bits and know how to use them

Here's the first quote I've received in my area. (Venture Shield)

Hood, fenders, mirrors - $399
Bumper - $499
headlights - $129

That's going to be $1000 total to do the whole front on my end.

Thanks.
I paid $750 cash for the full hood, full fenders, full bumper, sidemirrors, and under the door handles (to avoid scratches)

The armrest was an easy install. Just take your time and you should be fine.

The video also helped out a lot.
