OMG!! BadAsh!! Congrats!!!
It looks sweet with that kit on it!
Did you add that option for the speedometer trim or does the Type-S come with it?
Blk/Ebony is perfect!
I don't really know why people are compalining about that front, it is destinctive. I can't say more than that until I see it in person. Personally, I like it from the pictures.
BTW, you should take that front plate off to show off that front bumber.

Hey Oblio98, are those real wood or plastic on the steering wheel. By the way, the car looks awsome and I'm so jealous of it. Congrats!!!

Thanks for all of the nice comments.
Yes, I paid list...
The gauge panel is an option, but my sales "person" Amy at Schaller Acura gave it to me for free!
Indyjenks - Get the Wheel! (If you can affor d it) It looks MUCH better in person.
Note to all: The pictures look a little blue, sorry. I took them early this AM.

WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! That's the factory body kit? Holy crap, didn't realize it made the car look that much better. I though the sides and back were the only parts that fit. Anyway, that is one sweet looking car! I was waivering between an Impreza WRX and the TL-S, but your car looks bad ass, going back on the TL-S side for now!
NEED MORE PHOTOS!!!

How do you like the front piece? Does it look nice in person, or more like an add on? The other peices look great in the piuctures, just unsure of the front.
I have a WDP TL-S and they are doing the kit on Friday, just unsure of whether I want the front piece too, or leave it like snooks, sides and back only...
I would really appreciate your opinions on this.
Thanks, and beautiful car!!!

That second picture is a little bizarre, as there was a snow pile right in front of the bumper, so I had to be a little closer that I wanted to be. It really does look good, in fact, I was shocked how much better it looks with it on.
BTW - I know I said it before, but the lights on this car are fantastic, and the fog lights are super. They are real low, and they just bathe the road in light. I LOVE THEM!
I will try and do a picture with the lights on.
Also, if we every get another sunny day here in Connecticut(may be a week from now!), I will retake these pictures if anyone still cares by then :-)

Did anyone else notice that the Navi unit says the time in big numbers in the middle of the screen when not in use? Did the 2000 and 2001s do that? My 1999 doesn't. I like it.

Holy shit that car is incredible. I don't care what all you whinning TL owners say, that front end on the TL-s is awesome. I also kind of like that bowling ball interior. Is the regular TL-s steering wheel all leather. BTW, I am a suffering 1998 Accord V6 owner, of which I love, but I am getting the TL-s soon. Thanks for the pics.

I drove the Tl-s and the IS 300 back to back yesterday and I have to say that the TL is a monster. The car will rip. I think it would give some of the modern day mustangs a good run if they werent on top of things. What do you guys think about the IS 300 compared to the TL-S. It is definately not in the same ballpark as far as shear accelaration.

That is nice. Congrats on the car. All I can do for now is dream. 
By the way, you may have mentioned it before and I just missed it, but what was your total drive out cost?

Damn. I hadn't even considered the underbody spoilers until I saw those pictures. Oh well, there goes another couple grand. I wish the Acura website had pictures like those.
