07-08 Aspec

First of all if I'm using your picture thanks!

So a little confused here, are there 2 different Aspec front lips kits for the 07-08?

This one looks a bit busy up front


This one looks more like the 04-06 front lip except it fits with the fog lights.


Are these both considered Aspec front lips? Or did the second one get motified to fit the newer TL?

Sorry if this is a dumb question.

I think one is a TL-S and the other one is a TL-P.

Do the foglights that come on the 07-08s fit the 04-06 bumper?

i think yes, but its not a plug and play. your bumper still needs to be cut up and you still need to wire it in. i know a lot of people use the accord fogs, i think they are cheaper. but i will let others who know more chime in...

^ Yes I have heard of the accord fogs. And I believe they are better for some reason, can't put my finger on it though.

It is true that the TypeS kit looks really busy. Too much lip. I wish the TL base lip can fit the TypeS bumper.

Oh man NO WAY. The TL-S lip looks so much better than the base, the base is way too plain... IMO.

I'd have to agree. All the lines and curves on the type-s bumper make it too crazy. The TL has such good lines it kinda takes away from everything else..

From what I have gathered the 1st picture is of the 07-08 tls. The 2nd picture is of the 07-08 tlp. There is a 3rd lip for the 04-06 tl that I think looks the best. I wonder if it would fit the 07-08 tlp. And none of the other 2 lips will fit the tls bumper.

Thanks everyone for their input. Maybe the next purchase should be wheels instead, but afraid I'll have to lower the car to get the look I want and after having a lowered Accord I didn't care for the scrapping and having to drive super slow over everything!

The TL-S kit looks a little too Pontiac-ish... it just clashes too much with the sophisticated and confident lines of the TL. Of course everyone has an opinion, your mileage may vary.
