Yep, its only available in Canada, and was replaced by the CSX last year, which is a JDM looking Honda Civic, something under the TSX.

Still dont know why this was created...

Hmm.

I've been wanting to convert my GF's 03 Civic Coupe front end to the EL front end, but finding EL parts here in the states is damn near impossible.

Post a full frontal pic if you can.

sure it could have been put elsewhere. Sure i could just not share the photo with you all. Maybe next time I wont. Theres a reason a lot of Acura guys don't want to come on this site. And some of you are the main reason.

BraveDemon. I don't have a "stock" front end photo lying around. This is a photshopped version of it that i did while bored. Hope you find the pieces.

Probably better off in off topic...

But as well as being a rebadged Civic and leather seats, it had better suspension, better cloth seats, quieter and used the JDM styling cues more than just the US Civic.

The sweetest thing was that there was no "hump" for the middle passenger in the back seat!

To the original poster

www.clubel.ca is where you want to go, they can help you out there. I think a few people HAVE converted it successfully.

Personally, i like the look of the EL... it's different compared to the rice boxes we have down here... This one looks like a lower level lancer, it's interesting

Yeah, I will agree it technically should have been posted somewhere else, but its interesting to most of us. You just seem to be a awfully upset about it. I didn't think it was that big of a deal.

+ we don't have an EL section.

like I said. If it's that big a deal I won't share more pics of it. Otherwise have a mod move/delete this. It won't bother me.

X2.
I even think it's completely appropriate for this to posted here in the TL section, I don't mind at all. And there are some sick EL's up there in canada, they should've made that one here. The CSX though, I really don't like

This is Acurazine. Meaning a place for all Acuras. I don't see the point of trying to shut down a thread that was posted by an owner of an Acura of his/her ride.

It's not a TL? So what? He has a TL, he's posted pics of his ride, and his ride is clean. So why can't he share his other rides?

When I sell my 02 TL-S for a 335i Bmw Coupe or S2000Cr, I will most likely post a pic of my new ride here in the 2g Pic section; why? Because I've spent so much time here and acquired some respect and comraderie here. I plan to still stick around even when I'm no longer an Acura TL owner.

Honestly, I can understand why alot of the og 2g TL owners never post in this forum anymore; all the newer 2nd gen TL owners are immature as shit. Probably because the value of the 2nd Gen TL is worth beans now. When I rolled off the lot with my 2003 TL-S brand new, I paid $31k for it; now its worth about $14k about the same as the immature brats buying new Civics.

If you don't like, don't post, simple as that.

(end rant)

To the go who hooked me up with the EL forum, thanks man! My GF will be super excited. Maybe she can finally convert her Civic front end to the EL.

And to Bigtuffguy, sweet photo shop; my GF actually has the HFP lip kit on her civic, and so if we do a front end conversion, we'd need the front lip kit for the EL. THanks for posting that pic, exactly what I was looking for.

LOL. I was considering the Civic Ex, and the mazda 3 before realizing a used TL is a much nicer car. I'm not one of those little civic brats though, thank god.
