Jeffersin's 2004 TSX Pics

Hi all... First post!

So, I'm a new Acura owner (just bought my first Acura... a 2004 TSX) and it's been a fantastic experience so far... I'm just bummed I hadn't done it years earlier.

The TSX is exactly what I wanted in a car and from what I've been reading around the forums, I have a lot of options for fine tuning it... I've already done the surgery to the door lock pulls to keep them from poking your upper arm... love it.

So, I took some pics the other day... I think they turned out well enough. What do you think?

Oh yeah, if you could only choose one thing to do/mod on your car, what would it be?

Enjoy... I know I am!

- Jeffersin

What kind of finish is that on your cubby doors? They're so glossy.

if i can do one thing, i would lower it with some coilovers. not just for the looks but also to improve on the handling.

It's a carbon fiber dash kit... was on there when I purchased it, but really like it. It's not too invasive either... I think the kit MAY be from here: (look at the Genuine Carbon Fiber swatch, not the Simulated Carbon Fiber swatch)

Thanks! Sorry about the size... (as an IT guy, I guess I tend to forget not all monitor resolutions are 1600x1200 )

What's a good size for future reference? 800x600? 640x480?

Cheers!

No problem... It now called the "J. Strom Thurmond Dam"... years ago it was called Clark's Hill Dam until a politician decided it was worthy of his name and re-named it. How couth of him! More dam info here:

Welcome to the forum Jeffersin. If I could do one mod it would either be the Hondata reflash or supercharger kit. Nice pics

what width and offest are those rims? looks good but you need to lower it and run a bit more negative camber at the front so they don't look like they're bulging out

if you would, can you please take a picture of this "surgery" you mentioned, to the door lock 'pulls'?

i'd like to see what exactly it was that you did. did you just saw them off or did you shorten them inside the door somehow?
