Question Bumpers for 2011 Tsx?

are there any sport lips or bodykits that can fit the 2011. i kno that the 09-10 have the same bumpers but the '11 has a different one.

i really wanted the JDM lip spoiler but i wasnt sure to get it because some say 09-10 and others say 09-11.

please help me out

The only one I know of is the kit from the factory. It actually looks really good! Looks almost the same as the 09-10, but the 2011 isn't a full front bumper replacement. It's only front fairing things that go under the fog light. But it does look good.

someone's getting antsy.

you just cut the front lip. nothing else. you'd have to cut the lip around the foglight area because that's whats blocking it.

only pics i have are on my thread

1) prefit the lip
2) use a sharpie to mark the area you need to cut on the lip around the foglight area
3) dremel it little by little
4) sand it down to make it smooth
5) use 12oz spray paint can from expresspaint.com $25 a can

or pay $400 (modified and painted) to get it professionally done

You guys don't have the front lip from the dealer? o_o guess we're fortunate enough to have that as well then lol. Bought it along with my car so they fitted it for me. I personally like the lip better than the Aero/Modulo kit.

Good luck.

total cost for me to spray my own lip. about $40 and my own time.

$25 for 12 oz aerosol spray can. paint matched

buy 2k clearcoat spray. i believe its $16 a can

sanding paper


if you mess up, then go professional and pay the $200-$300.

we do have our own front lip that's consist of 2 caps. but i already had my 09' lip and wanted to see i could fit it. turned out well without having to drop $300-$400 on a 11' lip

I think the OEM sport Front lip and side skirts for 2011 are really meh. They don't offer that much of an upgrade to the looks IMO

i mentioned this before in another thread

it'll cost you $1400-$1500 just to get that front lip to work

$500 for front bumper
$400 for front grill
$125 for front lip
$250 for paint match

tax + shipping

aint worth it. just try my method or get it professionally done and painted
