Conversion kit for 2004 TL (to Type S)

Hello all, I just bought a 2004 Acura TL and I am interested in changing just a few body components. I was curious if the switch to Type S tail lights is a simple one. Also, I am having a hard time finding the Type S exhaust tips to replace the base model ones... Any help is very appreciated!

Lights are a direct fit. you will need to retain your LED board.

Us base models use a 67 dollar replacement quad tips.
you also have to change out your bumper to accommodate the larger tips. either the ASPEC rear or the type-s rear.

Hey, thanks a lot for the quick response... Sounds like a great deal for a good look. I guess the bumper would rack up the costs though.

^correct. All you're changing out is the tips. Tips do not increase decibels, their there for looks only.

if you want better sound, do one of the "stage" mods. you can search youtube or search here for "stage 1-4"
the "stage" mods delete the mid muffler, and adds a diff resonator depending on the route you choose.

I just started a thread on this... but does anyone here know the costs and difficulty level of adding fog lights to a 2004 TL? (including bumper replacement, if required)
