Where is the best place to purchase A-Spec body parts for an 06 TL ?

I might get just the front first then the rear then the sides, money is the main factor. Is it a pain to put on yourself? How much would Acura charge to install, I forgot, its been a long time.

I had an A-Spec body kit put on my 07 TL-S that I didn't like very much. I might purchase a WDP 06 TL Nav with a manual. The A-Spec kit and tint is a must.

as to your other questions, it is very easy to install, it will make it a lot easier if you have a buddy or two with you just to help hold it up and what not, but i would not take it to acura. its simple just look at the directions on how to do it and take your time, good luck dude

Thanks bro, I guess I would be lazy if I didn't do it myself.

Where is the best place to purchase? Would it be OK to get just the front lower part without the rest at first, for money reasons? Would it look OK ?

Thanks. I went to the website and tried to email them, my computor won't let me??? But I have the phone # I can call tomorrow. I was considering the A-Spec suspension for $660, but it shows only for the 2006 automatic not the 6 speed manual?

What EXACTLY is the A-Spec suspension consist of ? I read its 4 coil-overs. BUT someone on Acurazine said its not coil-overs.

Also when I do a search on Acurazine I can't ???

Strut assembly, springs, top hats. same as what you have on your car right now.

Its about an 1" drop from the regular suspension. Coil-overs have an ability to adjust your ride hight and some offer dampening (aftermarket suspension). Put it this way. aspecs are basically stock suspension with added handling and drop your car about 1"

oh and as for the search, no one can. search function is down.

It'll look ok. It actually look a little weird to tell you the truth. I myself wouldnt do it. Id wait till I get the rear then put both of them on. heres a perfect picture for you

How about putting the front and rear on, then later add the sides. Would that look ok? I can get the front and rear for $550 shipped. I hope they come with everything to mount.

Thanks for the info. Jeff D.

What wheels and size are those? SWEET! What suspension are you using?
I intend to make mine look like yours, except no slamming, Chicago doesn't allow it, shit roads.

I found a place online to get the entire body kit with everything needed for $780 shipped!!! Awesome. I am ordering it in 3 hours, as soon as I trade my 2007 Black Civic Si sedan in on the 2006 WDP TL nav manual. AWESOME
