'07-'08 Base A-spec

Anybody know where i can get a 07-08 base a spec front lip in NBP? I heard Acura discontinued making them, so i wanna know if i still have a chance getting them.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but for the rear lip 04-08 BASE and all sides they're all the same.

Oh, and if i don't get the 07-08 base front lip, will the 04-06 front lip fit on 08 base?

Ack05 aka Bruce only has 07-08 base front lip in white, so no luck so far.

^ OP stated he heard it is discontinued but isnt certain that it is. I dont remember which ones are; so I suggested to contact the dealers from our link since they deal with our community.

Worst case OP, just buy the white and get it painted.

I was applauding your efforts, and the gentleman above you, kind sir, in actually providing him info that he could very well have found himself, had he shown a little initiative opposed to taking a defeatist approach

pretty sure the 04-06 front lip fits on the 08 base but mounting it might be different though. look through the the installation instructions. it'll help

^ No it wont. The 04-06 lip is design to fit non lower fog light area as where the 07-08 curves around that area due to the fogs. It would have to be cut to fit. However, you can fit the 07-08 base onto type-s and vice versa.

At any rate, the Acura parts website through Bernardi shows them as available, in all colors and both base and Type S, I believe.

Isn't asking questions considered a secondary research...?

Thank you for answering my other question . I dunno about the look of a typs s a spec front lip though. It has that Darth Vader look, especially on nbp. No offense to aziners who has them on their car

One thing to remember, the price for the sides is for both I believe. Also, I ordered several parts for my TL through my local Honda dealer. I printed out the pages from Bernardi and my dealer matched the prices. My local Acura dealer sucks so I didn't even approach them.
