Talking Hello 3g TL modding experts help please~~

Hi guys, I love modding cars and i had nissan 350z few years back.
Now I am thinking about getting a 06 Acura TL.
First off what I want to do is

1. Get a-spec lip kit (front and rears only)
2. Get honda accord fog lights ( I need some info on this where to get them and how to install them)
3. Get black roof vinyl installed.
4. Get some wheel spacers.
5. Lower the car with springs or affordable coilovers.
6. Get some nice rims.

I personally love the look of 04-08 acura TL especially with the aspec lip kit.
I need a lot of your help guys. I've been looking around this forum and found some great deal on a-spec lip kit. Now I need to know where to get the fog lights.

I am located in Southern California in Irvine. Are there any mechanics around my area who can install these for me for a good price?

Thanks for the help guys.

Here are some old 350z pictures. I miss it a lot. Hopefully I will get to love this car as much as 350z.
thank you for the help in advance.

Hey Sam! I'm in Irvine as well try talking to Heel Toe Auto (based in Mission Viejo) about the coilovers and spacers - and he can pretty much install everything you want.

check out the link in my sig - he is Acura/Honda specific.

thanks h4qq, good to hear there is someone near me.
Do they install body parts for you as well? I just checked out their wheel spacers and they seem awfully cheap. i came from nissan 350z section and the spacers cost 100-200 ish and it is only 80 for 4? Seems like a great price to me.

Hi, djmanu, i asked AckTL for the pricing already. I've looked into Kaleb in search machine but had no luck. is that his account name? if not can you tell me his exact account name so i can find some of his threads?

thank you

sam

I think his username is wholesaleparts or something like that. u can even google pretidge acura and get the number. depending on where you live, might be better to find a dealer the closest to u to get the best price

If anything, the front A-spec changes the car a whole lot but the whole kit looks amazing. I can get you the whole kit for cheaper than anyone and also all individual parts shipped for cheap. I also sell roof vinyl and anything OEM. If you are located in NJ or around NJ, I can install the accord fogs for you and also customize your headlights/tail lights.
