Oh ok, I guess it being lowered made it look aftermarket to me, the side skirts are OEM as well?

I don't think there is any difference between the Aspec lip kit, and the regular OEM factory lip kit.

Also, I thought Aspec cars only came in blue color.

Aspec lip kit is the OEM lip kit.. just aspec is the name.

Aspec TL's came in blue and black i believe but all im saying is the lip kit's name is Aspec

^ its actually called the OEM optional lip kit, not A-spec. A-spec is only available in Canada and the reason its labeled A-spec is because of the interior accents that differ from the regular type s or base model TLs. i.e body color matched headlights (blue or black) also interior trim on the steering column, seats, etc.

I'm curious you said it was all one color. The OEM body kit always has the same paint code as the TL it is on, unless some odd-ball owners decide to order a different color than the ones on their cars.

that means yours were either put on lazily by the previous owner without painting them, or they are aftermarket replicas of the OEM kit.

That just means the previous owner never had it painted to match.
