Just wanted to post this on here. I've been a Honda/Acura fan for a long time. Started with an 88' light blue CRX, stepped up to a 97' PreLude which I Loved, then got into a 15' Civic Coupe which was totaled(not my fault), and now my latest and hopefully greatest is this 12' TSX Base. So far I am very happy with this car. Great blend of comfort and sportiness. I know reliability is there which is a huge plus since I plan on holding onto this till it dies.
So here are a few pics. Hope you guys approve. lol. Sorry but I'm not a pro photographer.
Current mods:
None! HA!
I guess you can call the black grill and fogs a mod. The front end was peppered with rock chips and also had the front plate on.
Removed the plate and had the bumper refinished. Also refinished the headlights which were super yellow and hazy.
Had my paint guy do the grill and fogs in High Gloss Black.
Oh.. And 35% all around with 50% on front tint.
Future mods:
What I wouldn't mind doing is getting the 19" HFP wheels, Decklid Spoiler in High Gloss Black, paint very bottom of rear bumper in High Gloss Black, and maybe add a sub for better low end.
But that's pretty much all I would do to it. I don't want to go too far with it.
But any suggestions are welcome.
Nice, congrats! Car looks sharp already and agree with the black grille, excellent choice. Keep us posted along the way, you won't be able to leave it too "stock" for long....LOL
Loving the tint on the front windshield! I want to get the front window tint but kinda scared because I live in California, I'm already scared about the front two windows already hahah.
I like the black grille; it does a good job of hiding that beak atrocity. And the stormtrooper look is always cool.
Welcome!
Thank you! Yeah I agree. Although its better than the 2010 and previous beak by a long shot. Was never a fan of those or the TL beak either.

Thank you! I know... Like I said. I do have a "wish list" but its already expanding. lol. But I wouldn't mind black out the window trim either. Not sure I would do the handles though. I like a little bit o'chrome. And don't want an extremely sporty look.

What are the limits in Cali? Here it is 32% and what I have on mine is 35% on the sides and back. It does a great job for the heat.

I did. Technically here in GA its illegal. But I did 50% which barely darkens the glass. It was more for the heat reflection than anything. You can still see me from any angle. And I still have perfect visibility all around bc its not too dark.
Yeah but they will get you with the VIN window at the base of the windshield, if you get pulled over for suspicion of tinted windshield. Happened to me with my Mercury Marauder.
