im gonna have to take my wifes exhaust tips and see how they look.
might have to order some. i like that look much better than the ap2s.
theyre a hell of a lot cheaper too.

when you get your mugen grill, sell me yours!!

LOVE everything about this car!
i might have to try to paint my engine bay trim like that..

hell, sell me your fog light housings too!
ill send you my stock ones + cash for em!

test fitted my wifes exhaust tip.
it looks perfect!

i wonder why they didnt use the same tips.
the accord ones look MUCH better.

gonna have to get my brother to order me a set through the dealership.

Those look pretty great! But I already went and installed some AP2 S2K tips. Its a little bit misaligned on the driver side but overall I am pretty happy. They look very similar to those Accord tips of yours, but the walls looks al little bit thicker. Thanks for the pic

the Ap2s i think are smaller.. im not too sure. its been a while since ive seen em.

i think im gonna get a pair of the accord ones.
they fill out the gap much nicer than the TSX ones.

i think a pair of these would run around $60 or so total for me. where as the AP2s are like $100+.

pretty happy with the outcome, so far with the minor mods that I've done the sway bars are by far the best this thing handles so much better even with stock height
future mods
mugen window visors(bought not installed yet)
coilovers(also bought not installed)
camber kit
wheels I wanted 20'' at first but 19" by some 10'5 would be just fine
hoping to be lucky and get a mugen front bumper
