Question Body Kit Opinions...

I am debating with myself regarding whether to put the front lip spoiler on a TLS...I like the side skirts and rear valence but not thrilled about the front spoiler. Also concerned that with Comptech springs, clearance with curbs, driveway lips, etc.

Is it gonna look goofy to put the side and back pieces and not the front? Snook, I noticed in you didn't put a front lip on your TL. Thoughts?

As far as clearance goes, Oblio98 posted some excellent information awhile back on the clearance with the kit and Comptech springs. You should be able to find it by searching.

It's not in the TL-S FAQ yet (nudge Mr. Hyde)

MosTLS,

I have the springs and the kit. So far, I haven't hit anything. I am just careful about how close I get to a high curb when I park. I've taken driveway ditches and pothole without a problem.

The lowest point on the car is the area directly behind the front wheel.

Check out the pictures in my earlier post.

NOTE: They are not at my link below, maybe I should put them there too.

Cool



That's pretty funny b/c I'm thinking of doing the opposite. I'm not too crazy about the side and rear skirts, but I love the front spoiler, so I was thinking about just getting that piece. Down the road I could always add the sides and rear, either Acura's or aftermarket like Wings West etc....
