'07 TL aesthetic modifications?

Hey just joined the acurazine community with the purchase of my first car an 07 tl, I have been searching around and was just wondering what could I add to my car to make it look cooler. I'm only 17 and do have a job so I do have an income but not a huge one, what could I do with about $500? Also it's black with black leather interior! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Save up a few more hundred and get the A-Spec kit! It changes the whole look of the car.

Alec, welcome to AcuraZine. Check out My Garage-it has a bunch of aesthetic mods. You can get to it by clicking on the name of my car in my signature.

Upgrade the interior lights to LEDs! Very cheap and well worth it! You can have the headlights or tails cleared. Go check out the 3G garage it has anything and everything you could ever do to your TL and how https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/3g-tl-garage-faq-3g-tl-newbies-553554/ it is pretty much the bible for Azine members

Thanks for the feedback guys! I've been checking out all the links and the thought of a HUD sounds awesome but I know very little about them. Anyone able to shed some light about them?

The pictures no longer work, but a HUD was installed in a 3G TL once before:

I would spend my money elsewhere

Thanks for the link! Been looking at them for past half hour or so and they don't seem as great as I imagined them to be...


Anyone know of any ways to make the exterior of my car look better? I saw in some pictures LED lights under the headlights and I love those, any idea how much those would cost?

I agree with CL, Save for full A-spec kit. I was 18 when I first got the TL, and started with headlights and tail lights, but now I wish I spent it on A-Spec kit. Im also a low income student

A-spec looks so much better than stock.

You would need the 2007-2008 Base A-Spec kit. And please don't add LEDs to the headlights
