NEW to the forum not the game!! TSX inside..

whats up everyone!
so pretty much i have owned close to 16 Honda/Acura vehicles since i was 15 years old. So after selling my pride and joy (1993 Acura Integra) was featured in Honda Tuning June 2011, i bought my second EM1 and had it for a year. Of course it was modded like all my cars i cant keep nothing stock ( it had 5 lug swap, 16 jdm white itr wheels, Recaro seats, buddy club suspension etc..
A kid came up and offered me a offer i couldn't refuse trust me, i bought that car bone stock for a crazy deal. so i sold it .
Well i always loved tsx since they were made in 04 and after the civic was sold i knew i had to get one.

So I purchased a bone stock 2004 black on black 6 speed manual tech package tsx.

I have owned the car for 4 months only for your info.

when i got it.



Well mine go figure didn't come with the mud guard set so i had to visit my buddy Robert that works for Nalley Acura and through my work discount i picked up a set.



so after that i picked up a set of oem visors and oem fog lights from again my buddy Robert at Nalley Acura and it looked like this.



and i couldn't stand anymore to be on off-road mode so function form type 1s were on the way bring her down.



and once again i called Robert to place the order on a new A-spec front lip and it looked like this.



so the factory wheels were getting boring and i was just looking on the web and found this Oem 18x8 +30 all the way around g35 coupe wheels for a steal, so i bought them and they needed some work. So after a little bit of elbow grease and new tires i threw them on.



And then i knew it was time for the oem A-spec rear lip so as soon it came in Robert called me to pick it up.
this is how the car looks to date with the additions of OEM all season floor mats and a oem s2000 CR shift knob. Oh and all the interior lights are now led super white lights.



how sits for now, i threw the center caps on too!





the skirts are coming next, along with new wheels and then start working on the engine bay and some more exterior work.
thanks for looking and feed back is welcomed!!!

Wow that's clean

I'll admit I'm not a huge fan of the G35 wheels but I've seen way worse on other TSXs.

yeah i saw them on one tsx and they were ok, but i think the size of tire i was running makes them look better.

Welcome to AZ bro. You aren't allowed to tint the front Windows in GA? I was ATL based pilot for Delta and I seemed to have never seen this tint set-up before. BTW do you plan on Hondata reflash Ecu? the power/torque gains as well as extra rpm range is a great thing for only 3xx.xx . again welcome and oh some bronze wheels look so good on black Acura's .

no no... The front windows as in driver/passenger window. Tinting the front windsheild is plain STUPID and would never do it or tell someone they should. It looks like you only tinted all windows behind you.
