More for you

No laughing. I like the Element very much. If it was still available when I was shopping, I would have bought one. Very practical!

Also, I like the Front and Rear Spoiler pieces you showed. But they do not fit my wagon. The front is for the early bumper and does not fit the newer bumper. And the rear pieces do not fit because our rear bumpers in USA are longer than the rest of the world.

See how the back is longer right above the ground?




It would need more custom work to fit.

MoonRover

Yes, with bumpers an interesting situation. I didn't know that back absolutely another!
It is possible that on the re-style of Euro Wagon same!

Front grill dark chrome looks very, very good!

cu2wagon

I did not know about the dark chrome grill. It looks very good!

I will get the front and side spoilers like on that white Type S car you showed. Next month maybe.

I don't get it, I always ask people to send me money as a gift when I am selling something to them. That way I only lose on shipping, and not losing on shipping + transferring money.

Someone send me the dark chrome Honda grille for a reasonable price and I will love you forever.

joe, if they F you on a gift, money gone. if you say goods, they have to prove delivery or you may get it back from paypal.

If I was dealing with you I would add the fees to your price and send it as payment for goods.

but I asked HOW MUCH SHIPPED? Returned with price. Ok Ill accept. Then came at me with the 3% if i use Paypal.

Be up front is my point. Say xxxxshipped PLUS the PP fees.

opboarding

Just account for the paypay fees in your asking price. People hate getting nickeled and dimed with "extra" fees. Someone is more willing to pay for an item's given price if they don't know a fee is already built in.

I got screwed on a gift payment sent to a guy for spacers a while back. He didn't pad them AT ALL and they cracked during shipment. It then took 5 months of me hassling him to send me the $50 fedex sent him.

i do same op. i add everything into ONE PRICE. and work from there whenever I sell. and i sold lots of things here and been on eBay since 99......oh might be before some of you could walk LOL/

MoonRover

In Russia to change without cause it is very expensive! The dark grill costs 450-500usd

MoonRover

Modulo grill costs the same. But it is only suitable for up-restyle bumper or Modulo (A-spec in US) bumper!

ssjoeboe9

I have only sold car parts and everyone knew me, so I asked for gift. Makes more sense if you don't trust someone.

iCrap

Never send it as a gift... you lose all buyer protection. People have tried to screw me 4-5 times on a few expensive purchases and each time paypal gave me my money back.

I guess I just buy everything new.. #iunno

I wonder how easily the new 8 speed DCT would bolt onto our cars.



Along with the new engine, all 2016 ILX models are equipped with the sophisticated 8-speed DCT transmission. Originally developed for racing, the dual-clutch design shifts faster, smoother and with greater efficiency than conventional automatic transmissions. Designed in-house, drivers will find it a perfect fit for the high-revving inline-four engine.

Unlike a conventional automatic, the new transmission changes gears though clutches (much more like a manual transmission) rather than simply a torque converter.
The transmission has one clutch for odd-numbered gears (1, 3, 5, 7) and a second for even ones (2, 4, 6, 8). While one clutch is engaged with the current gear, sensors predict whether the next gear change will be an upshift or a downshift. The second clutch then prepares the next gear ratio for engagement so when the shift occurs it’s instant with a negligible loss of engine torque.
Eight gear ratios keep the 2.4-liter engine running at or near peak efficiency at nearly all speeds.
Because dual-clutch transmissions have been known to shift roughly (particularly from a stop), Acura took the unprecedented step of maintaining a torque converter for a smoother launch.
The true performance potential of this new 8-Speed DCT is brought out by paddle shifters that enable lightning fast shifts that take only milliseconds versus a typical driver’s manual shift of about a half second. Such quick-response shifting makes lively acceleration out of a turn or engine braking down a mountain road particularly satisfying.

Fog lights cover the different too!

Satin chrome (Acura TSX SE)


Dark chrome (Accord Euro Type-S)

xtcnrice

Wow they have dark chrome fog covers? I do know they have an option for black fog covers though.

MoonRover

Yep, and auto folding mirrors we too have)))

Hi guys,
(I'm not sure that my question deserves separate topic, so I decided to use this)

I'm planning to buy TSX '10 - I love its look, I heard lots of positive feedback about its reliability and so on. But there is a crucial question I cant find answer on (one say "yes" while others say "no") - does it have manual gear mode on 2.4 engine? I was using manual transmission for ten years, and driving "usual" automatic really hurts when I want my car to do what I ask for in some unusual situations (while being really handy in usual traffic).

cu2wagon

Yes. You can find the manual on the 2.4L I-4 engine.

V6, no.

VR1

Lol ya the 4cyl 5spd auto has a sport mode that lets you control gears with the paddles. There is also the 4cyl 6 speed actual manual.

Where can I find bumper plugs to cover the holes where the license plate is mounted on?

cu2wagon

Honda doesn't seem to make any. Most seen to go with bumperplugs or DIY with plastic plugs from a hardware store and some touchup paint.

BumperPlugs are ridiculously expensive but supposedly match perfectly.

avarela86

Are these the SE wheels off a TL? Looks great!! Have been trying to find a picture with them on the car.

cu2wagon

Hmm. You know, I have no clue. I didn't even really give those wheels a consideration; I was just looking for a non-US rear bumper.

They almost look like the S2000 wheels.

avarela86

Close but the S2K are 17s. If only they didn't come staggered I would try them on the TSX! Still going on whether I go OEM wheels or aftermarket.

cu2wagon

You're right. They're subtly different. These are the ones I was thinking of, but the spoke ridges are wrong:


Now that I'm looking at that wagon, it's really bugging me because those wheels look so familiar.

cu2wagon

Don't think they're TL SE either. The SE seem to be a "double 5-spoke" type with and "inner" and "outer" (or "over/under") spokes:


Whereas the ones on the wagon look like a symmetrical 10-spoke.

But those SE look very close.

Probably heaver than heck though.

That's it! The first one. That we don't get in USA.

Why don't we get any of the food stuff?

Harper

Because most murican car buyers won't give the dealer $3k to trade the stock wheels for those fancy accessory(?) wheels.

cu2wagon

Probably true.

I looked the PN up, and they're listed as 18x7.5.

Typical. Honda specs a great looking wheel and then gives it tragic dimensions. 7.5"? And I bet it's still a +55 offset. Weak.

MoonRover

Yep, parameters of a rim 18 х7.5 ET55

On Euro Accord other forward brakes, brake rotor 320x30mm, front caliper have 2pistons !!!

lol might get flamed for this but has anyone bought eBay Brembo brake covers? If so, which ones? I think it's kinda rice but 10x better than the stock look depending on how they fit

EDIT: Changed my mind in 5 minutes lol. That being said, are there any ACURA brake covers available for a direct fit on our TSX?
