Here are some long overdue pics of my TSX. This was pre-Zaino. It looks much better now, and these pics aren't that bad to begin with.











I installed the metal trim kit myself, and replaced the junky old silver/black plastic center caps with these with the chrome emblems.

I am very happy with the metal trim kit, mostly because I got it on Ebay for ~$200 - I really like the way it looks, but I'm not sure I would have paid MSRP for it. Probably not. It is super-thin flimsy plastic. When you open the box and look at it, you think "I paid how much for THIS?" But the effect on the interior once it is installed is dramatic. I like it.

On the outside, the chrome emblems on the centercaps make all the difference in the world (again, Ebay - $20.) I get compliments on those all the time. They fit right in with the rest of the chrome on the car, and don't look cheap like the stock silver/black plastic caps.

The only other add-ons I've done are in the trunk, and not pictured. I bought a trunk tray (nice improvement - again, Ebay - $70), and the cargo net ($25 from dealer.) The cargo net install is a HUGE PAIN IN THE BUTT. I like the end effect, but it shouldn't be that big of a production to install a stupid cargo net. If you want one and can get the dealer to toss it in - installed - at delivery, I'd say it's the way to go.

So all my cosmetic mods cost a grand total of less than $350. Not bad, because they make a big difference, I think.

Future mods? I've love to get my hands on an '06 navi unit for the trunk... we'll just have to see how much they cost...

Very clean, tasteful, nothing too dramatic. The metal trim kit looks nice, just a little too much for me. I have a CG also, Im looking to get the metal trim kit and just use the door pieces. The center console/stack part is just too much metal in an ebony interior. Thanks for the pic though.

I cant wait to see the results of the Zaino treatment. Ive had it sitting in my room waiting to use for the past few months, just curious what a fellow CG zaino treated car will look like.

Nah, I was thinking of putting Kia badges on it.

Aren't you thinking of Hanson?

The most I'd ever conceivably do is A-Spec.

That would be classy now wouldnt it

Nice ride man and nice color choice, both inside and out. Here are some pics of my CG about 1 week after being done with 3 coats of zaino. It's hard to tell because of the angles but if you look at the doors (shadows) you can get an idea of how shinny it is. Again, nice ride.
