You have to host them on a site like imageshack.us or flickr.com and then copy and paste the [img] link into your post.

Haha and they're 18s... maybe it really would look good on 19 or 20s?


I do like the front bumper, though.

Thanks for the pics. Does that car have the A-spec suspension as well?

^^ I think I could fit through that grille.


LuvMyTSX, I don't think there is an a-spec suspension for the '09...? :/

Hmm. Well, I just assumed there was a suspension since there was one for the 1st gen. I hope they make one.

I think that silver wing on the lower part of the grille really needs to be colour-matched with the rest of the car, that'll make it look twice as good. The A-spec kit doesn't look like a lip kit, looks like a totally different front/rear bumper, with a skirt add-on. Looks good nonetheless, I don't like the a-spec wheels though!

Yea. The front and rear lip kits are entirely different bumpers, while the side skirt is a tack on piece.

I'm with you on the wheels. I wonder what they look like in the ebony finish, though...

Curious

What's the sticker for the 2009 TSX w/ASPEC? Also, can someone confirm if there is a suspension package?

It's about 35k with the A-spec bumpers and side skirts.

I'm pretty sure side sills are full replacements also. That's usually the only part that always is. In the past Acura has offered these kits with stick on front and back spoilers. This looks MUCH better. I like the change it makes with the appearance. However, I agree, those tires are two low profile unless you drop it a couple inches. I wonder if those are the stock wheels that go with the optional 18's?

Nope. The side spoiler is a bolt-on part. I agree though, replacing the entire bumper looks better then adding a lip kit.




EDIT: Wow.. That looks surprisingly unfinished without the side spoiler!

Cool pics, thanks, but I think it actually looks worse. But I can understand how this look can be appealing to some bc it makes the car look "meaner". I wouldn't actually use "more aggressive" to describe it.

I agree...the wheels look like 17"s to me. And I'm almost sure that we will see the grill or as VorteC commented, portions of the grill color matched next year or the year after, just like they did for the Civic/Civic Si.

The full replacement bumper is interesting from a replacement part point of view. They come fully painted so if I were in a collision, I could probably 'slide' the body shop some money to install this bumper rather than the stock one that will need painting...

I stand corrected. You are right after seeing that closeup view.

Thanks for the pictures Mick. Question; are those tires the stock tires that go with the optional 18" chrome-look wheels you have on that car? Those tires are very low profile. Look kind of funny without a suspension drop. What tires are they?
