Sigh...hit some black ice going on an on-ramp to highway. 360 into the guard rail, thankfully no one got hurt.
I guess its time to buy the JDM bumper!

Sorry to hear that. Glad everybody is ok. And yea, but that jdm bumper on, the car was already nice and clean. This would probably motivate you to make the car nicer than before. Honestly it could of been worst. Good luck

I was on the Hwy 7 on-ramp to 400 South…I was only going 25-30km.
Thanks everyone for the concern, I’ve notice too that a lot of TL’s are getting wrecked. But I will fix her up better than before!
I remember, after getting over the shock of the accident. I told my buddy “At least the lip kit isn’t damaged” lol.
I found a JDM hood, bumper and headlights for about $500, going to have to wait to get the fogs for now.
Lesson learned, next winter. I’m getting a beater for sure!

She's currently in the shop!
I wont be parting the lip out sry guys, modifying it to fit the JDM bumper.
New parts being installed:
Hood
Grille
JDM Bumper w/fogs
Rebar
R/F headlight
R/f headlight bracket
They might have to pull the frame out a bit, not sure yet till everything is off. Hopefully not...

Thanks guys. JterrorC I like the 02-03 front end, but I love the 99-00 front end even more. It's a more subtle look, but still something sexy about it lol.
Here are some pics I took from the bodyshop 360 Auto.
JDM Bumper, I'm getting the sensor nub shaved off.
Headlight with ballast
JDM Fogs
I got lucky, there was no damage to the rad. Hopefully everything goes well and I can have her back by Tuesday.
Missing her lots.

She's back!
To do list:
- fogs arent mounted yet, just put them into the slots for the picture.
- still have to figure out how to modify the usdm lip to fit...if anyone has experience please msg me.
- Acura symbol is on order as well.
Iphone pics, better ones to come when everything is on.

the only easiest way i know is to mold it on...ull have to chop the middle to shorten it...then chop the sides up towards the front...then mold...
now u have 1 molded lip n the rest r just regular bolt ons...1/2 assed look
in my opinion the best way "looking" way is to chop the lip to the rite size...then make custom brackets to mount it on...
some1 on here did that...either that or he got a JDM lip...
i told my bodyshop bout the 2 ideas...n they said the cheapest n easiest way was to mold it...which i bet to differ
