To be completely honest, and this is my two cents, don't do the mugen grille unless you're going with the full mugen kit. Because a mugen grilled would be the equivalent of painting your grille black and slapping a mugen emblem on it.
Everything else sounds good though!

that looks good man
and as for rims, i say either some gunmetal or silver rims will look very nice
i sorta agree with what kid saida bout the mugen grille though. IMO not worth it $ and look wise, but hey, if you think it looks badass then thats all that matters
clean ride man, keep itup!

the one from heeltoe will look great, i'd do maybe silver paint or something other than paint match though, but up to you
and idk if you wanna do honda conversion, check out ttk's ride. he has the euro grille and that looks pretty nice too, but good luck finding one haha
also one of our vendor c-mod is coming up with a grille as well, no one know what it might be yet though

-Modulo/OEM Acura sport kit (both are the same, currently the ONLY OEM option in america)
-Mugen kit
-Type S kit
There are currently 3 1/2 grille options:
-Carbon fiber grille (HT i believe may be wrong)
-Euro OEM grille
- OEM Modulo grille (JDM/EURO only)
-Non existant Heeltoe grille
other people have shown interests in making for our car but these are the only ones i'd hold my breath for. except the heeltoe grille. i'd be holding my breath for too long.
There are two mugen grilles. one that will only fit with their $3000 bumper or the one that looks like acura's OEM one but black. and says "mugen" on it. Very rice if you don't have other mugen products.
And also, i'm not the person to ask for stickers....you hafta give ed e-head.

Ron Jon is such a tease...
Came up in this forum, dropped this picture:
And then quit the bodykit game. ):
And also, if you buy the bodykit from the dealer, you're going to have the entire thing repainted since I believe they dropped your colour.

You see me, I CU2
This is the colour you don't like right? Lol I dunno whats the difference between this and Honda Suzuka Blue...
Mugen grille requires the Euro grille since its an add on FYI, it has the skinnier sides and overall frame.
And yes I did make that decal
and no I won't be make those exact same ones again. 10 Stickers in the world ay bay bay
CU2SQUAD and CU2CREW stickers are an ongoing project...

It's a nice color, rare as well, I've only seen one in my life and it was a showroom car and while I was there it got sold in 1 hr lol. Gold or bronze rims me thinks.
The visors kinda look weird cuz it's like half black then the rest is the chrome piece IMHO but that's nit picking for me.

G-Force Blue color rims would look sick on this as well, maybe even Takata green if you like bright colors lol.
That RJ kit would have been so nice if it actually happened but nope pipe dreams as usual for the CU2 TSX

Yeah I put the window visors on and Im like thats a lot of chrome left lol....but yeah I like the window visor look but I should have just went with the weather tech instead of OEM...the WT visors would have inserted behind the chrome trimming

if you dont like your chrome, you can use plasti dip ($5 a can). its black vinyl thats easily removable if you dont like it. i also have OEM window visors and i used plasti dip on my chrome window moldings
or you can use electric tape or black vinyl
