shady_CU2

Thanks, fit just right on mine

shady_CU2

something I ordered just showed up...

ed_423

lemme know how it goes man, interested in this

jeroplex

in one of your pictures looks like you burnt the yellow film on your fogs..was this with HIDs or halogens

VortexBlueTSX

Are those calipers from a Tl-s?

shady_CU2

will do
I bought the lamin-x film, stock halogens burnt up in less than a month, took them off and put 3000K H.I.D's way better

yes they are off a '08 TL Type-S

Mr. NC

^Your LaminX burnt off? I have LaminX + 3000k fogs...no burn *knock on wood*

shady_CU2

They didn't burn off, the film got burn spots... IDK why

ssjoeboe9

Do you know if when you take your strut bar off to paint it you need something to compress it to fit back in its original position? or is it fairly simple??

ssjoeboe9

Also I want to buy a replica front lip too. Is there a vendor list say on eBay or something that we have confirmed fitment on 09-10 TSX?

defconskylude

there are ebay sellers selling the front lip by itself. mine came out warped so youre going to have to use a heat gun and massage it make it fit

ssjoeboe9

Thats what I'm saying, I wanna know which vendor he bought from so that he didn't have to give it a sensual massage to make it fit.

shady_CU2

Very easy removal and install no compression required. BaysonR user name on ebay

VortexBlueTSX

Let me know how those Rotors fit! Im very interested in this, looks good man

shady_CU2

Thanks Vortexblue, will do.

nice! where'd you buy your grille from?

ssjoeboe9

dude sweet lol next mod is painting my strut bar... guessing you cleaned,sanded,primed,painted,and clear coated?? My engine bay is gunna be so TS-EXY!!!!

Last question I promise lol. BaysonR sold you the lip and you didnt have to work at it to make it fit? It was straight plug and play? Did you just use 3M tape? or drill holes?

KillerG

i thought herro was an asian thing.

never heard desi ppl use it, sahib

apinwp09GBTSX
