Volunteers Needed for Aftermarket Parts Production

I am in contact with a company that wishes to make grille inserts for the TSX...upper and lower.

I need some (2) volunteers who are willing to drive to their facility (Lynchburg, VA 24501) for about an hour and half so measurements can be taken so the grilles can be Researched and designed and prototypes can be made... once the fitments are complete they will go into production.


THE VOLUNTEERS will get to have your car featured on their website along with a set of free grilles for your participation!!!!!!!!!

You are to CONTACT me ONLY... the company will not deal with any OUTSIDERS due to past experiences on other sites.


I NEED competent members to step forward...

PM me or respond in this thread..

Thank You

Smitty

I think I could find some time to swing by, but possibly not for 2 weeks. I have the Mugen grill installed now and the OEM just lying around, will that work? Do they want my old grill for measurement?

Same here...I'd be more than happy to help out if it was around Chicago..

I'm curious as to how it's going to look. Would they give A-TSX members some sort of discount on the finished product?

Okay..I'll let you guys in on it..

The first person to make a negative comment gets a temp ban... these people are PAYING sponsers of the FREE site you surf.... in other words they help pay the bandwith Bills you guys gobble up...

Keep it clean... I do not want to be a Nazi mod and have to dish out temp bans...
this is what i got set-up for the TL guys for right now...

they will be the same style...
Do not like it and your not interested... DO NOT POST...



Mind you they retail for 159.00 shipped on their website... but the GB is much lower!!

I have no COSTS for you TSX GUYS at the time...

I just need to get you guys over there so the Grille can go into R&D... so the sooner I get you guys over there, the better!!!..

I'm diggin the silver diamond, looks very professional unlike most tuner mesh crap that looks terrible. I'm glad to see companies making products specifically for the TSX Like I said before, if they want to measure my removed OEM grill, I'd be happy to mail it over (as I can't drop by for a while).

I like the silver race style one. I really, really, really like it.

We are about 3 hours north of Lynchburg, but like xizor, can't make it up for a couple of weeks (Summit Point, WV activities next weekend, custom header work the weekend after that).

I will PM you my info, Smitty (but let other people who can get to the vendors sooner have priority, please).

i like the silver one as well, but is there a way just to have the silver grill with just the "A" with out the chrome i would like to see a photoshop i think that would be a good one. But my fav is still the silver race type.
