eh i like my replica type s rear better. the replica type s rear looks more aggressive/muscular. plus its only $125.
where's the type s headlights? and the type s grill should be different compared to the euro type s
the way the rims are colored looks weird. they look like ninja stars

What's different about the headlights? DRLs.? They look the same. I wonder how much it would cost to change to a red cluster, I'm assuming it's only a red light instead of the blue one we have.

What did they change in the headlight housing? Did they black out the housing? Area behind the projector looks darker unless the DRL is throwing me off...
I like the rims too...I'm a fan of gunmetal colors. Agree with Ed though...they should've used new rims to further differentiate between this model and regular ones. If you don't notice the lip and bumper, people might think its just a TSX with dirty wheels.

id like to get my hands on them, pry them open and black out the housing.
i hope ebay will shell out some replicas.

^ I asked a couple months ago and all of the eBay sellers said at the moment they had no intentions of selling replica 09+ or Euro headlights.
#17
im sure you could buy the guages joe, i know you have a red theme going on. I bet you could just buy the relevant oem replacement parts and swap em in

I want it lol I work right next to an Acura dealership. I might have to go in there and check this out. I was always jealous of the Russian tsx that came standard.
#19

it would be sick if all the lights were blue but turned red once you went over 4500k

So many SE threads.....I really wonder who the first forum member with an SE will be. Hopefully not some complete moron.
I love the SE interior's contrast stitching and such, but would love it more in blue.
SSjoeboe, you have PWP/Red i have PWP/blue LOOOOL let's so how well each one is executed! No lie/no homo i thought about you when i picked up the works and they were white with red stickers lol...
Type S Headlights would be amazing. I really like them. I wonder if it would be a direct hookup wiring wise onto our TSXs.
And +1 on pricing for aformentioned parts! Does anyone know if the SE is going to come in all colours?

LOL on stickers... So I stopped by Acura on the way home. Don't hold your breath on pricing.
Sport accelerator $300
Sport brake $52
Sport Dead Pedal $52
Clutch Pedal $52
New SE Cluster $1400 (soooooo sad for me )
New ass was like $1300 too, I think it was same price as the sports bumper before.
My dealership is getting 2 SE in about 3 weeks. One red one black. They didn't know shit about the car. They basically said when the cars arrive thats when they will have all of the info.
As for those who care about the cluster situation. There is no such thing as swapping out a light. Apparently if the light ever goes out they just give you a whole new cluster. They also said they doubt that the wiring would be the same. Looks like a no go for red cluster on my PWP.
#27
used russian cluster?
#28
also, id stick with strutking for pedal covers, maybe buy the deadpedal if you want but with weathertech mats you are 100% covered

Maybe you can try what the RL people did for changing cluster lights? It was a pretty intense DIY. But yeah i think the light is soldered on or something, you need to be good electronically to do it....
$1300 for the bumper?! aw heeeeellll nawwww....
Same price as the aero bumper i would do. but $1300 is ridic.

Goodbye.
those are some ridiculous prices on pedals.......yikes.
and the colors for the SE model are Milano Red, Crystal Black Pearl, Bellanova White Pearl, and Silver Moon.
guess all grigo/GLM owners are going to have to get it paint matched

yeah, they charge out the butt for everything.and I quote " They make the prices so high so you just trade your old one in and buy this new one." I said to the guy there is no way I'm trading for a little extra plastic! How bout we get a K-pro already!!!

There was a guy on Scion Life that did custom LED for the cluster. It was couple years ago but from what I remember, he was located somewhere in Florida. I remember being really tempted to actually go (so I guess its nearby). He can make it so when you hit VVT-i (even i-VTEC) that it changes to another color. I forgot how much he charges.
