The CL is not the Inspire; it is made in Ohio. End of story

We have CL's, not TL's. Some TL's were made in Japan as Inspires, but CL's never were. Done.

Sabers and Inspires are the Japanese versions of the TL's. One of them (dont remember which one) is the Type-S version. Same car in every way just a different motor.

I bet you would get flamed more than my "Billet Grille" thread!

Just kidding...be prepared for the haters if you get it.

It is styled in the same fashion as the ACURA but not intended for our model.

But hey...it's your car...practice what I preach.

While you're at it, pic up a Type-S badge. Or better, put red Honda Type-R emblems and stickers on it! Mad JDM yo.

The reason we're hating on you is because that's not our car. It's like puting Skyline GT-R emblems on an Altima...it just doesn't belong.

Because they are the inspire accord everywhere else but in America.

They're trying to be JDM like you.

JDM<USDM... At least for the CL considering.... THERE IS NO JDM CL!!! I had a first gen TL, which qualified as a "Inspire"... Even then I wouldn't do it. There is a reason they market our cars as Acura in the US instead of Honda like it is in Japan. "Acura's are really nice!"

As stated above the CL is an American car with no JDM eqivalent. It's your car so do what you want, everyone has their own taste.

it's reasoning like this as to why APC parts are still in business.

The CL that has the Inspyre badge is from Canada....look at the "GTA CL Meet" thread in the picture section.....you'll find his car/name in there.

Sounds like the guy with a 6-banger Mustang and then puts the "Cobra" rear bumper on....
