I just picked up my brand new 09 Acura TSX in Crystal Black Pearl, AT, Tech Package. Bought it on Monday but it was dark so I didn't have enough time to see any flaws and it was kinda dirty. I posted a thread about two weeks ago asking for your opinions on what car I should get. I wanted manual but I guess when I was test driving on US1 so kinda got frustrated with the stop and go traffic. Since this is going to be my daily beater, decided on the auto plus with all the goodies, heh, might get distracted lol. It's late so I'll post pictures later on.

HEAVY DUTY...May I ask to shake the left hand of the lady in your AVITAR? PLEASE

kowloonsniperhk

haha or you can get to know her two friends

Your comment about the clean engine, you will find that the TSX engine compartment seems to keep the engine relatively clean. I find it really easy to keep this engine clean compared to my previous North American cars I used to own....

BTW...I wouldn't need to know her TWO friends, I'd settle for one

She's definitely a MILF, and a hand...er...two handfulls of fun. That was one of my better "right click save" moments.

kowloonsniperhk,
Congrats on the purchase. Crystal Black Pearl seems to be the most dominant color, most 2nd gen TSX's I've seen here are also that color.

HeavyDuty,
Nice avatar

kowloonsniperhk

thanks CybrRdr. I love the color when it's clean and i know its PITA to keep clean but that's alright. i will eventually start my VIP style...despite not being a RWD

Welcome to the CU2 club and congrats on the purchase.

You have to promise me you won't paintmatch your grill so that mine remains unique.

kowloonsniperhk

mskchui

what % of tint did u get?

kowloonsniperhk

since i live florida its 28% in the front and 15% in the rear, i got 28% front and 20% rear since i didn't want that noticeable in the % tint. i felt naked when i was driving it back from the dealer.

kowloonsniperhk

very nice! thanks for sharing pics!

mskchui

cool pix! any more upgrade?

kowloonsniperhk

just ordered full led conversion for the interior of the car including the boot and the license lights. in the process of ordering a spoiler. ordered HIDs for my fogs, and going to paint match my grille but im still looking at it and to i guess take in the stock grille of my car before i get it painted.

mskchui

sorry, where is the boot? pls lemme know where you order the led (and model #). where are you ordering spoiler and HID? i'm thinking of getting more stuff for tsx too.

kowloonsniperhk

heh the boot is the trunk of the car. basically for a majority of the interior i used the same as manitou1 and ordered most of them from ebay. here is the link to the thread and all you have to do is copy and paste the model number on the thread onto the ebay search engine.

the other leds are for the four door lights which I ordered from superbrightleds.com I ordered the T13 in blue because it definitely looks nice at night. I had it in my old TSX. here is a link to the complete LED bulb type on the 1G.

As for the spoiler and any other accessories you are looking for, I ordered from philsmithacura.com since they have a little discount if you do it yourself. But they are located in South Florida and is the place where I bought my car so I can pick it up.

Most of the bulb type is the exact type as the old car. but I haven't check the type of lights for the tail lights.

For the HIDs I ordered from
