Post saw my first one of these the other day...


I'm surprised it took this long for me before I saw someone throw a typeS on their 99-01 tl. I figured someone would have put it on as soon as the CL-S came out.

AHAHAAAHAA! Alright whose is that?? come on fess up! That probably is off a CL-S.
Actually, come to think of it, I saw a 2000 TL with a Type-S badge on it here before too.
I hear it gives you 3hp more.

Speaking of badges, where can u find Acura badges? Would I have to go to a junkyard or something?

Try Ebay - do a search on Acura or Acura TL. They are all over the place. www.ahmotor.com has them too I think.

HAAA!!!! Figures someone would do that sooner or later. A few CL-P owners have tried that I've seen (and put them on the sides too). Most owners have a little more self control and all.....

Nate taught me how to do it. Just select the area that you want to change the color with the Lasso tool, desaturate, and then adjust the brightness and contrast of that area to get it to look right. Give it a try on some of the pics in the gallery. I'm just learning photoshop so I'm not as good as some of these other guys in here. But here is another one I tried to do.



Here's the original
