My lovely TSX w/ OEM side and back bodykit
This morning 5 in the morning, I couldn't sleep, b/c I wanted to install my body kit
So, I woke up early w/o taking shower and brushing teeth, just started installing the kit. after installation, I washed the car..
This is first time posting my car, I've just installed the back and side kit and let me tell ya, it was pain... But it's worth it
Many thanks for feelgood13, who provided my the instruction how to install the kit

of course you should... why, are you considering not installing it? a half kitted car looks sorta odd... just like a car with a front lip and no side skirts or rear lip... just my opinion tho..
looks nice! i can't wait to get my oem lip kit also...

Nice job. The car looks great, but I vote no on the front lip. Don't like the '06 version, and I think the car looks fine without it, even with the side skirts and rear lip installed.
Just my

keep in mind that the picture i posted of Bajafishing's tsx, he used the factory trim (painted) around the fogs and not the unpainted trim that comes with the kit. he did it by accident and i think it looks great! i didnt have the heart cut mine like he did.

Anyone got links to sites that sell bodykits online for TSX's? And how many different types of kits are out there anyway? Just a few? Or many for the TSX?

Looks good, though.

Went to dealer and got it fixed for free

That's what I did.
OEM Sides and rear plus the Euro-R Front.

I have one stupid question. If you have a front lip and rear lip...doesn't the car already have side skirts. Do you just replace them to have a different style or do the OEM side skirts not come as low as a full around lip kit?
Aside from the stupid question. Everything looks pretty good. How much did everything run you?
