oh yeah ..... and here is a picture of that door lamp......it was plug and play and while somewhat RICE AND CHEESE it is pretty cool.

i dont recommend them as the lens or symbol is not fastened well and actually moves or spins a bit each time i close the door.

I only installed the one and while it was a tight fit it snapped right in LOL/

the symbol or logo is MUCH BETTER RESOLUTION than the photo shows....my exLED blue leds are washing out the word HONDA but in real life it is very clear and crisp/



item link if you NOW want one

Saw a TSX lowered on 18's with the OEM splash guards on the highway. Made me jealous. Now i kinda want the splash guards... really improves the look.

Nothing adds more horsepower than the engine mods Per-iods, and ComMas. Both are by the company PunctUation. They are a platinum vendor here

Stickers give 50HP each. The bigger the sticker is, the more HP you get!

I dont normally like the splash gaurds... but i think they give the TSX a nice wide look.

If I got my grille painted a real color, should I color match GLM or keep it black and make it NBP? I want to say color matching it completely will make it look like a camry. Thoughts????

Haven't really been into tsx's lately but I realized today how expensive BMW's and Mercedes can be with repairs and maintenance esp the older models I like (I.e. E38 (1995-2001) BMW 7 series, e39 M5's (1997-2003), and the W140 (1991-1999) S-class). Damn the tsx is such a great value, hopefully I'll get a SE 6-speed next summer. Special editions are 2011+ right?

probably harder to add the tech package than to add all the cosmetic things the SE offers... Only thing I can think about that may be hard to do or get a hand of is the stiching but I'd I've the tach, body kit, and wheels...
