The blue ones cool but for some reason I dig the red with black the most...I've had 5 white cars in now have my first black one just not digging the black one that much maybe because I know how hard it is to keep clean lol...

Push the front bumper lower section out a bit. If that's not too hard.

I bet it will make this car look much better. That inward curve looks OK in the rear but not so much in the front. Which, imo, is why the GT car looks much better.

Thanks for the chops!

If the gap between the nose and the lower lip wasn't there I think I'd like it a lot more. Hopefully they change that up on the production model.

Really when you look at it it's the 3G remake we all wanted. It just has a few flaws here and there.

And the power trains suck.

I just noticed something that really bugs me, speaking of bugging out, those taillights that bug out at the top. Those need to be contoured to the body.

Haha love the pictures.
May be Type-S will have exhaust tips? If there will be any Type-S coming out

Or can there be an A-Spec kit for these bumpers? Looks like hard to make something fit there.

I really like this too, makes me start my future investing plans now haha
Now a WDP with the black wheels and ambers LED fogs a little lower and black beak would look superb. Great work on photoshopped, someone send these to Acura HQ stat! Steven Bell and other you know who you are make it happen if you can haha

Holy fawk. I kept saying I'm not replacing my 3G with another Acura, after seeing the abomination of the 4G, but this has changed my mind.

Wow!! Some of you guys are really gifted with photoshop skills lol. That rear shot with the quads are INSANE!! Honestly if they eventually come out with a Type-S TLX in the future, I would be very interested and wouldn't mind selling my 2008 KBP TL-S to get it...

Build this with the open grille and the floating 'A' instead of the factory grille, visible exhausts, and better wheels, and I would be interested..very interested!

Awesome thread of ideas guys. Really good PS skills. Love the blue one with the "A-Spec" kit. TLX A-Spec I watched the unveiling live and immediately my mind was spinning with ways to do mods to make the car look better. I can see that my thoughts were mirrored with you guys, no surprise, lol. I thought the design would be a total disappointment but it wasn't. I'm not totally thrilled either but the design definitely has potential. All the mods most of us have done to our 3GTLs would look awesome on this car. 20" wheels, a drop, bodykit and exhaust would totally transform it. I didn't really consider the TLX a potential "next car" till now.

If the interior is revolutionary I just may go for it. I'm sure the engine will be a gem, not worried. I just wished it had a dual-clutch tranny or of it comes in a 6-speed manual I'm sold. I'll bet a majority of us 3G guys will leap over as well because this is a car with moddable potential. Acura are you listening?? Or are you going to continue your stubborn path with beak-grilles? Listen to your customers!

the 2.4 version of this car does have that.

the v6 does not but 9 speeds is pretty ridiculous.
