decklid spoiler? 3rd party company about 3rd of the price of OEM, look on ebay.
Roof spoiler is also found on ebay, there are different styles though.

my wheels are 8.5" front +35 and 9.5" rear +40, I will be addign 5mm spacers on the frotn and 15mm spacers on the back, I also plan to add coilovers to lower it about .7 inches more for a perfect stance.

The front lip, buy it from Lings, ask for the cheapest shipping option which is UPS, should set you at $550 shipped

Car looks very nice .

Do you have any pictures of your interior? Specifically the OEM Black Dash kit? I would like to see that if you have pictures available.

hi all, first time poster here.

when you say get the front lip underbody spoiler from "Lings" do you mean from this site? http://www.lings.com/

if so, i can only find parts for the civic and nothing for the accord.... also would they have the european accord gril for sale as well? Thank you!

^ Welcome to the forum. Yes, it means Lings Honda in UK.

If you want to order anything for CU2 Accord/TSX model, you need to know the part number first. Go to Honda European site: http://www.honda-access.com/268/en/intro.jsp then click on car accessories, select Accord 4 dr and you will find parts number there (corresponding to car colour), cut and paste that on to Lings site and get the price.

Yes they do sell the Modulo Sports Grill also. If you want the regular Accord grill, email them for the part number.

how have your wheels and suspension setup altered the handling? Does your tsx continue to handle great on back roads?

Thank you! I found the front skirt:
http://www.honda-access.com/jsp/acci...5/666-2713.jpg
it's 489.91 USD at Lings. Does that sound about right?

While at honda-access.com I also found the "Front Sports Grille" and the picture shows it with a different front bumper as well:
http://www.honda-access.com/jsp/acci...0/666-2717.jpg
Is that grille and bumper one piece? Because I can't find that bumper separately. That's a great looking bumper but I'm not sure if the front skirts will fit on it.

Also, is "Volcano Gray Metalic" the same as "Grigio Metallic" here in the US?

Yes, with s/h GBP 40, should be $550 shipped.

No, Sports grill is separate. That bumper is the aero bumper which is available in the US. But the front skirt only fit the stock bumper.

Also, is "Volcano Gray Metalic" the same as "Grigio Metallic" here in the US?

Question well done sir.

amazing.
well put together.
well planned.
and well executed.
im not even a fan of lip kits, at all.


2 questions...

1 : with the s- tech lowering, that was a considerable drop..
----no camber kit?, if not, any abonormal tire wear? (interior tread (camber))...

2: your future mods :
---- spacers ..front and rear, any room with that drop?
-----will you have to rolll the fenders?

Yes, I must say that this is the best looking TSX I've seen on here. It's classy and elegant all at once in my opinion.

TSX's have roof spoilers for sale on Ebay and stuff. Search them up, there were quite a few when I last checked.

Yea I've seen alot but this 1 seems to have more "rake" (word?) or it looks more agressive which I like cuz the 1's I see on there seem kinda flatter. Although CU2Mike has a nice roof spoiler as well but that was made for a 5 series and the link he gave me the spoiler has an indent in the middle which i sorta dont like

I too have a black, you think It'd look retarded if I get the side skirts, and a rear bumper lip as I have seen on rawesome and other owners and MAYBE a front lip this the OP's without lowering the car? Would be on 18" 45 tires.
