Get rid of the Garfield head on the windshield, it'll look better

I do like the location of your euroR badge :thumsbup:

Any shot of your rear wing?? How much downforce do you run at Nürburgring?

Very Nice, the grill is the shit. I want my TSX too look almost exactly like that. I like the rims too, they look BBS or a clone.

i have to say that the wing looks better now that you have the front lip. it all goes together now. how much did the lip cost you?

i like how the lip even makes the chrome piece on the hood look good, instead of out of place, i'd keep the chrome piece on the hood now if i were you.

I think it looks pretty hot. (though the wing isn't me, it does come together nicely with the kit.)

lip looks great. I think the JDM trim would match better though.

Yes, it's true the wing and the Mugen grille and lip go well. Just ain't my thing Seriously, does that block lots of rearview visibility??

Edit: the Mugen kit is probably the best non-OEM kit, but heard it's very expensive. True? How much has it costs so far? And fitment is not a problem???

Don't mean to rub it in dude, but I am so glad my lady never wants to put anything girly :ghey: in any of my/our rides... If I were you, I'd ripped that out until she gets in the car. Just tell her you don't want window smashed in by someone wanting the garfield head

Wow...really nice....was thinking of getting the mugen lip as well since the full bumper is too expensive...

The black/chrome contrast looks really nice.....

LOL, I'm sure he doesn't give a damn since his TSX looks way better than most out there even if that damn Garfield is swinging all over the place, LOL

Mugen kit has the best fitment so far, even the guys at the shop comment on how perfect the fit was. highly recommended.

i think you can find a pic of my wing in the forum under " most wing on a TSX" , haha

as for downforce, none. actually the only reason i got it was for my puppy so he can use it as a parkbench.

for your good sense of humour! We (not we on AZ, but people that I know) do have a running joke about huge wings being picnic tables

I hope you are joking about letting your puppy use the wing as parkbench. As much as I'll never put that wing on my car, still hate to see it get pissed on or something. BTW, is the puppy really yours? Or is it your Garfield loving friend's?

He's got tons of lowering room left. I think he only lowered it by an inch or inch and a half.

Where is the rest of the kit???? Loce the car from the front as long as I dont look above the hood. Need to drop the car those rims look really small. And the wing has GOT to go. But lip and grill look good.

Haha, but they wouldn't fit on my stock rims. Wish they did though.

Seriously though, I haven't yet melted your tires halfway down yet, so I don't see myself buying before this fall.

I plan on doing an expedition driving up as far north in Quebec as the roads will go, but it'll be a few thousands of km's of gravel, so the steelies will come back on for that trip. Which means it'll take even longer for my stock tires to melt.

Damn. I'm not too sure if I still want to go to the meet now, my EuroR sides still aren't here yet from BPT and I'm using my brother's Type-S rims+tires.
