Smile Just got an '08 WDP TL w/Nav

Just purchased my TL and I'm very pleased. I want to do some modding ASAP however since I just sank a lot of loot into the car itself my mods are limited in cost. What I'm thinking about doing are some LED interior light upgrades, LED reverse lights and LED puddle lights. Do you guys have any other suggestions for mods below 200 that will give my TL a unique look?

Here's the car:

Nice car! Welcome! LED lights are a great start however I would not do LED reverse lights, I did them and they suck especially if you have dark tints. You can look into headlights/tail lights or side markers if you want more lighting mods. Follow my signature below my post and you can get a discount

Congrats Welcome to AZ! Check out the 3G garage for tons of info. Also register your TL at www.myacura.com in the USA or https://www.myacura.acura.ca/ in Canada. Save your Navi and Radio codes there. Check for any recalls your TL may need.

Tint is a nice mod. Summer is almost here.

Welcome Noel-congrats on your new ride. I've changed the title of your thread to convey your Navigation. The "Tech" is really more on the 4G TL's (2009+).

If you're looking for $200 or less mods, check out My Garage. Many of mine are that price or less.

haha, I live in Commack. Just picked up an '06 Anthracite Metallic TL from Atlantic Volks for $19K. It only has 7,000 miles ( which justifies the higher price ) Enjoy your TL & make sure to do the maintenance necessary as it's got some mileage on it!

LOL crazy dude, yeah I had to jump on this. I been wanting to buy a TL for a year now. I procured my own loan and the dealer beat the interest by almost 2 points. Got it certified so for the next year I dont have to worry about anything breaking. Last week I went to go look for 4 TLs within 3 days 3 of them got sold and the last needed a lot of TLC.

Thats insane dude you got a wicked deal. I was set on getting a 2007/2008 with NAV because of the cosmetic update and for the backup camera. I would of taken the 2005-2006 but I like the look of the stocks rims for 07/08 years and the updated tails and also the gauge cluster.

Congrats! I just picked up a WDP 07 Type S two weeks ago also.

Keep us updated on your mods because I am in the same boat as you.
