Like the grill, it is very simple and clean. It's understated but classy. That is a nice combo with the sidemarkers and the side view mirror lights(TSX?). Very original. Take off the headlight and tail light stickers...

I agree the spoiler needs to be painted black as well, but you can paint it partially and not fully.
Partially meaning have the spolier painted to were your trunk lid matches together at both ends only. Leaving the sides of the spoiler to blend in witht the side of your car.
I think that would look awesome. I hope someone can photoshop what i just suggested

i hate to jump on the band wagon but it actually looks pretty good. i like the suggestion of a lip spoiler in black to. LOSE THE STICKERS!!! they are in horrible spots and make it look so ricey(to me anyway)

Personally...i wasn't feelin' the car at all b4...its looks better with the roof done. I think it will look a lot better with the spoiler painted to match...I also think those rims aren't doing you car any justice. I can't knock your originallity, it definatly has that "show car" look...this is just one man's opinion.......good luck in the show.

just a few suggestions, all stickers on the car gotto go, go with a much cleaner looking rim, and get some smoked Acura emblems, maybe even think about taking your fog lights out, that would open up that good looking front air dam, also, 100% gotto paint that spoiler, looks like a band-aid right now.
Other that those suggestions, your car is fucking hot. Def. awesome ideas and an unusual color to start with. good work

says "hello to my TLX".
so you painted the hood, roof and trunk lid. why'd you stop there? you might as well have painted the rest of the car black too. cos i bet this TL would look 100x better. it sure as hell would beat the color scheme you have right now with the doo doo brown. everything else you've done on the car looks good though.
