I don't like the wing, but the rest is pretty nice.

I see. That's kinda silly that you can't get black/ebony, but I guess that's made up for since you can get white/ebony.

He's got Toyo T1-S. RTFP!

Eviljohn, I'm thinking your in need of a bodykit to tie it all together. The OEM kit would be OK, but a Euro R front lip like JeffTSX's would be even better. What do you think?

i didn't put it on for looks though, the car feels like its on rails on the highway and track, especially if its bumpy. and APR makes good quality product.

Impressive mod list.

HOW fast do you go on the hi-way to need that thing anyway ??? Personally I have no wings and been going upto 100 mph and the cars feels like it's on rails.

how much you paid for that wing anyway ?

Yeah smart guy...that's exactly what you need.... downforce in the rear to take traction away from from the front tires. Maybe Canada also has the magic TSX with RWD.

I dunno man, unless your going 100mph+ all the time, you've got a useless, ugly hunk of metal causing drag.

The wings definitely needs to go. Why don't you opt for a more conservative spoiler?

Nice car though, I love the grill, rims, side badging's, and the brilliant shine,

never has a TSX needed a body kit so badly. for the love of God please get the OEM kit soon.

in real racing, a giant spoiler is useful even for FWD, see Realtime Racing's TSXs if you need proof. But yes, on the street its not going to do much.

OK an ugly hunk of CARBON FIBER to correct Joe's statement....You dont even have enough horses to utilize that wing even if you were spraying.

that's one way to look at it... but props anyways, you're probably the first (and maybe the last ) person to do that mod, so I can respect that

It's funny that hardly anyone has noticed his other mods. How many TSX's here have a Mugen CF intake or Mugen rotors?

In his last post, at least he got something right "...dis much reaction"

i think that a wing on a car with 200hp is absurd. You gotta have something serious under the hood to justify having a wing thrown on your car.

well sorry to say, but i don't like the wing. but it's not my car.

and you have tein flex coilovers? why is it so high then???

i do admire how you love your wing despite all this negative feedback. don't take it personal from me, i'm just expressing my opinion, keep in mind i have always said that i believe you should do what you like, and disregard useless comments like "...an ironing board..."

comments like that are completely unneccesary. the only thing that needs to be said is that you like/dislike something and why.

but anyway, i would love to see pics of the mugen intake, and i have never even heard of that exhuast, so better pics of that would be appreciated too.

i'm sorry to see that so many members are bashing you, but i'm also glad that you are standing your ground.

cheers.
