continental extremeContact DW 225/35/19
form>function HT-spec version 2 type I
debadge TSX and ACURA badges

4350k mtec fogs

FUTURE MODS:
Kinetic Drilled and Slotted Brake Rotors (ordered) tnx to Murd3rb0t

Thumbs up

I really really like how this car turned out, beautiful, it looks similar to Audi A4 or BMW 3 series. The only cheap thing is the stock exhaust tips, other than this... it looks AWESOME. If you're not planning on getting new exhaust, Borla makes sweet tips that will complete the fantastic look.
Well done sir.

Looks good. I wanted a black TSX since my last 2 cars (94 and 98 Preludes) were black.

Any updates on this car? Making 19s look good, but many people I know have bent and cracked Linea Corses like no tomorrow lol. Heavy wheels too.
