Disagreed. My instructor at the HPDE a few weeks ago had a BMW 318Ti. He was only two seconds behind a fully race-prepped RX7 on a 2.24-mile road course. With just R comps, track-spec brake pads and lowering springs, that thing handled like a monster.

But stupidity...now that's innate.



The question at hand still stands though.
Does Tech drive MUSTANGS with big-ass dragon stickers from front to back
or "top of the luxury line cars"

i think stupidity is your natural talent as well, considering we are on a ACURA-TL forum.

I don't have a new kit for you to look at Boston Speed but I do have a line of reasoning for you to consider.....

The TL is a four door sedan. The kit you are looking at looks like it belongs on a much smaller 2 door car, IMHO. That is why I believe most people here go with the OEM kit or the WW kit. These kits add a bit of sportiness without trying to make the car a "sports-car", which it is not.

That being said, go with the bolder Sarano kit if you still like it.... you will never be happy with anything else and will always have wished you would have done it. I say it is better to spend the money on the one you "really" want and if it turns out to be too aggreessive just live with it. Either way I am sure it will look good.

My bad Dr J. I am sure someone finds the Value kit hot (especially since with import charges etc the damn thing is like $3500, unpainted, uninstalled) I just don't happen to be one of those people and would go with another option for a third the price.... or better yet get a good custom shop and have something truely unique created..... I would imagine for $3500 they would do you up right. You could even buy a oem kit/ww kit and use it for the base and they could make whatever image you see when you close your eyes and think what you wished your car looked like....

Either way.... I withdraw my playa hatin.... Get what eva flips your switch...

Holla at ya lata.

Essarak, owner of the red CL w/ the G35 kit, spent 12k on his body work. I'm guessing a large part of that was paint but still....
Body work edit: Good body is expensive; and although 3500 will do it, it won't do it right.

There is a place in Philadelphia, PA, that is going to do my custom kit...a W211 E class Brabus kit for $2500 or so painted. That is not including the kit itself.

Essarak also had a widebody done as well as a paint job. $3500 is ample money to have a custom kit installed. If you wanted a whole new kit, made from scratch, Im sure that will cost alot more.
