Rumor ? Factory Body kits !!

I'm not sure about this.
as I went to the Auto Show and saw the TL-S.

I went and asked the Sales who works there about putting the TL-S Fog light onto our car.
The sales guy told me that the fog lights actually came from our CL.

so it'll probably fit ?

anyways, I also asked him about is there anyway I can also put TL-S's front bumper onto our car too.
and the sales told me that they have came out with underbody bodykits for our CL-S.
and told me to go to the dealer and check them out.

Is it true ? can someone please comfirm these ?

BTW, that guys works at Sierra Acura in Alhambra.

The guy must have been BS'in you.

The TL-S foglights obviously didnt come from the CL... so I wouldnt believe him bout the bodykit either.

And if they did have a bodykit at the dealer already... you can bet we would hav eheard of it by now.

somebody needs to e-mail that pic to wings west and every other body kit manu. to show these peoples we need a kit and that it would look TIGHT! it's just amazing how every aftermarket will turn their attention to that sorry, ugly ass, p.o.s., ford focus and just leave our "S"'s out in the cold. i guess i'm pissed...............NO, I AM PISSED!!!!!!

(sorry, won't happen again)

Well, you know what they say....

They save the BEST for last!!!

Yeah, Maybe these manufactures want to get the sorry shyt out of the way(like your ford focus, IS300, Etc..) to make room for the BAD BOY TOYS!!!

Don't worry guys, it will be a matter of time when people start to understand and realize that the Type-S IS worth the mods and stuff. People are just in denial right now.

With the TL-S. I rest assure that there will be aftermarket support. Aftermarket companies need to know that the cars are selling.
