airrunner makes a kit for the TL. They come from Japan and are good quality. Have heard that these ride as good as factory without your usual body flex from bags. You can check the out at http://airrunner.co.jp/line_up.htm they have some pics there.

dumped, with the OEM kit I am about 2 inches off the ground. all the way up, i am about 1 inch higher that factory. both the canover kit and air runner kit are from japan. i believe the canovers are more expensive though. they are cylinders, as opposed to having bags like airrunner does. also, many of the components that come with the airrunner kit arent the best, so you probably want to buy just their cylinders, and source the rest of the parts yourself. expect to spend anywhere from 4500-6K installed, depending on how reliable, efficient and pretty you want everything to be...i will post a couple pics in a few days

Air Ride Tech makes bolt-ons for 98-02 Honda Accord. They will bolt directlly to your TL no problem. I belive there called shockwaves, its a bag with a built in ajustable shock. I haven't felt the ride on a TL or on a honda Accord, But I have felt it on a 1967 Camaro, and it rides awesome. Smooooooooooth. If I was to bag my TL, I would go with this company. No long international wait from Japan, 100% bolt on, proably americas best bolt-on air ride manifacturer, Can install yourself (if your more of a DIY kind of person), I think around it cost arounf 1500-2000 for front and rear....then spend another 1200-1500 on a air managment kit, so definitley cheaper than going through japan. just my

yeah, thats a viable option--but again its a bagged setup. with the cylinders, you can drive 120+ mph with no probs and there are no chances of the bags popping. also, the 98-02 accord suspension is not not 100% bolt on. although the coilovers do fit, somethings need to be changed. there was a user who had this done. ART is the best though when it comes to air ride components-I have the BigRed valve system...which goes for $750...the best/most reliable setup for valves

I downloaded the instructions for Easystreet, you have to grind out your strut tower and drill two holes in it for the two front struts. I personally didn't want that, so I ordered all my stuff from ART.
If you do order from ART, expect to wait for the rear struts(98-02 accord), they've been on back order for the past three months. All this waiting is killing me because all I need is the rears to have my car moving.
I also have the BIG RED MAX air system with the ridepro controller. Excellent quality products and the installation wasn't too difficult, so far.
I guess I just "let the cat out of the bag". I didn't want to until it was finished but, oh well.
