Good Morning All,

I have been a acurazine member for a while now. Ive owned a 2008 Acura TL base for the last 7 months, and it was nothing but a headache! always in the shop! Well last night I picked up my new ride! I am very pleased with it so far!

I got a 2011 TSX V6 TECH white on balck! 1 of only 500 made!!!

I got a AWESOME deal on the car! took a loss on the TL but it made up with the purchase of the TSX. Jackson Acura has been very helpful through this journey!

TL has 31K when i bought it, traded with just under 40k.

TSX had 6 miles on it!

I already had the splash guards added, lip spoiler, and all weathers. I want to do LEDs on all interior lights, tag lights and trunk lights. I need help ordering those!!! I also want to put HIDs in the fog lights.

It goes to the tint shop tomorrow, to get 15% tint all the way around except the rear back window will be 5%, & a 5% front window strip. give me some feedback, and lets get some ideas going!!!

Congrats!!! I have that exact same car... #49 on the VIN.

How did you find out that it is 1 of 500 in that combination?

Nice! Same dealer where I got my car.

Where are you getting your windows tinted? I went to Elite Auto Spa right off Northside Drive & I-75. Great place, and they did a great job.

AWESOME!!! enjoy

it was something we were talking about at the dealership. because most people dont want white on black, they like white on tan- so its kinda a cool fact! means higher resell value too! for the rare bread who wants the white/balck combo!!

Congrats! Looks like you went to Jackson Acura. I hear good things about them...

ressling

That's where I got mine done. Highly recommend!

atlACURAboi

thanks man!who did you use at jackson? i worked with CJ & the owner to make my deal happen- there is a LONG story behind it all, but it all worked out great! I am going to use a guy in alpharetta at Mr.Sun Shades. He has tinted 4 of my cars and does a great job. he stands behind his work if there is any probelms too. resonable prices. He just tinted the windows at my office eairler this week as well.

atlACURAboi

Yes I did buy it at Jackson! I had my TL always serviced there, and there service department was GREAT!

I worked with the interenet manager CJ & the owner Harvey to work the deal on the TSX. Picked it up on tuesday! They went above & beyond for me. Got the call all the way from PA, because i wanted the white on black, and threw in some great accessories! I would deff. recommend CJ to anyone!

Congratulations! Gorgeous! The V6 wheels are my fave.

VERY GOOD CHOICE! Congrats!

v6 TSX > TL imo, ride is so much sportier and faster! Unfortunate your TL had problems tho, those things were suppose to be reliable.

not to be a downer on your purchase, but if you got a great deal on the new car but took a bath on the trade-in, then overall you did not get a great deal (that's how it works)

Seriously, me too. When i went to buy my TSX, i asked my dealers if they could swap the wheels for me but at that time, i wasn't aware that they were for V6 models lol

But still, i'd still love to swap them out with the V6 rims

And congrats on the purchase

Great ride! But 5% tints on white car? No way! I have done led and hid on all my cars. With HIDs I ended up going back to oem colour 4300k philips 85122+. they are amazingly bright 3400 lumens! Stay away from 6000k +. While they look cool, only give you about ~2000 lumens. If you want convert fogs to 6000k hid, there will be glare but It will have that aesthetics factor you want. VLEDS have great bulbs but they take about a month or two to ship sometimes. If you need help with LEDs or lights PM me.

atlACURAboi

thanks man- sorry its taken so long to get back on here. busy with work, and been sick...

i am on the fence about the HIDS & LEDS. if i choose HIDS its will be 5000k pure white for the fogs.

i do think i want to do the LEDS for the tag lights, just need to figre out buld size (168 i think) and then where to get them from. looks like a easy cheap conversion... i have alot of pics i need to upload to bring everyone up to speed on my car...

you will need resistors for indicators or youll get hyperflashing.
