lol you are so right. every cl owner would be buying it. the only reason that i like that acura didnt make a lip for the cl is that it just makes your cl stand out from every other cl out there to have one molded.

I wish they did make a kit, I never see cl's anyway. Only 1000 tls a day.

i highly doubt anyone will be able to make the TL kit bolt up and still look professional. i pondered for hours trying to figure it out but you would have to fabricate brackets to hold the lip in place. as for the side skirts that is a whole other story on its connection system. the tl brackets do not line up with the CL. you would need to relocate each of the rear brackets so that it would clip into place. i sat in my garage trying to come up with a way but ended up just overlaying them on to the stock cl skirts. my original plan was to do the kit and figure out how to make it so that anyone could easily bolt it on after i modded them. after molding 2 kits the easiest way i found is to just mold them onto stock parts and document the process for others to try. now if i could sell my one huge how-to book without it being copied hundreds of times......
don't mean to discourage you but good luck in tackling this project.

So basically get a tl front lip molded on and use the rj sideskirts and rear. I would have to mold the rear cause i dont like that line where it connects. Doing anything else or trying to make a kit is useless. Even if its the best kit ever made there arent enough ppl to buy it to even get your money back.

If you can model the 99-01 lip for our cars out of polyurethane Id be in for a kit as well. The 02-03 lip doesnt flow IMO. That extra vent underneath the bumper vents doesnt look right.
