Hmm...you left the TL on but removed the 3.2 Looks good! Keep modding, nice to see more NGM's on here lately.

Yeah, I found this site less than 2 weeks after I got my car, and ever since then, I've been a little bit less financially stable for some reason... Haha!!!

I love this site!!!!

Yep, I had a Talon with almost 10k in it, and bought my TL-S with every intention of leaving it stock. I lasted 6 months. Then I found AcuraZine. It started with window tint....lol. Aaaaaand 7k in parts later (and not even close to being done) here I am.

Car looks great! You started in the same basic order as me, debadge, tint, and 02-03 tails. Definitely drop it, and get some 19's, both of which will be my priority once I start working again.

I wanted to get rid of my 3.2 as well. Did you ahve to take the whole badge off and than put the TL back or were you able to just remove the 3.2?

Looks great by the way.

Looks real clean. I would put the 01-03 "A" on the trunk since it is a little bigger than the 99-00 "A".

Uh nope, just get an exacto knife and patch up the area around the 3.2 TL so you don't scratch your paint, then just cut REALLY CAREFULLY down the 3.2 and tl.

Yaah a bigger badge would be nice. Do they sell them at dealerships?

I think the 02-03 "A" is about $20 at the dealership, though mine was given to me free of charge by the dealership. Good luck.

Good deal. I was kind of wondering the answer to that as well. Thanks for the info! I wasn't too sure if the dealerships would have them anymore.
