Just Bought TL-S Spoiler
Just got the spoiler with the GB price. What a deal! I also picked up a set of all-weather floor mats for my '04. Is it just me, or do the stock floor mats really suck for the TL?

As for everyone asking about the group buy. Since there was enough interest for certain products, Tim has already started the group buy at HondAcuraWorld.com. Simply go to the site, look for the Acurazine group buy logo (which indicates it has a group buy price), and purchase to your heart's desire. Not all items were included in the group buy, but a majority of them are.

I tried out my ipod using the tape that goes into the stereo, but I think the sound quality really sucks!
Just bought the TL-S Spoiler! Thanks, Tim!!

Now, our stock orders are placed Thursdays and arrive in the following Monday/Tues.
Here's the accurate 411 on the decklid spoilers
NBP - Some releasing out of Windsor Locks (to arrive Mon), some arriving from Loudon TN (arriving Wed)
WDP - coming out of Troy OH (to arrive Tuesday)
When orders ship, we'll be sending out tracking info that day around 5 PM EST. All orders will be shipped via FedEx ground.

Please tell me you're kidding... I am hoping I missed your sarcasm there, because the FM modulator sounds like you are listening to your music through a pile of dirty wet socks.

Also, what kind of hardware do I need for the deck lid spoiler?? I notice that the HAW.com website says it doesn't include hardware. I won't be able to install it myself, so I have to get my boyfriend to do it and he doesn't want to tape it.

1. It hasn't been shipped yet. You quoted the post where I'd explained when things would ship, so.....
2. If I had it in stock, since you ordered it yesterday, there hasn't been enough time elapsed since then for the tracking number to reach you. Tracking numbers are emailed out at the close of our shipping day every day, around 5 PM EST.
We're not the Acme corporation, but we try

No templates are included, but the screws are. Instructions maybe found online (either on here or hondacuraworld.com).
Crook just installed his with double sided tape. Looks very good to me. Click me for details.

3M double sided is very strong stuff. If you prep the paint well before you perform the install, it should last forever.
Our badges and body side moldings are held by just double sided tape. Please perform a search for other threads on double sided tape.
Lets keep this thread clean for the group buy. Thanks!

Tim, A-Spec center caps with the chrome A emblem, to replace the ugly plastic stockers would be a nice as a mod to the OEM rims. The chrome crest really kicks it up a notch. Do you have any available ? GB anyone ?

It's actually not better. 1 watt vs. 100,000? The FM modulators are not very popular with most users unless it's the only thing they've ever used, or the market they're in isn't flooded with radio stations. I ditched my iTrip for a Monster adapter. Neither was any good. Hardwired is the way to go!
BTW.... The tape adapter is an actual contact with the stereo and usually DOES give a better signal than an FM modulator. I can't explain the science, but as someone that works with audio as a career, I can tell you first hand.

also, the 2 heads do come in contact in the player, and that's when it's ok, but when they miss by a little cuz they always ove raound the sound meese up , and they still suck at quality cuz the sender head is weak, it has no power other than the signal and tapes mak more static noise than FM usually.
and who wud want that tape in there with the cable sticking out making the whole interior look like shit, you can integrate a fm transmitter in your trunk right where the antenna is so it catches signal good, and it's out of your way...
you can't always hardwire everything, how would you do it in the TL without runining the interior and putting in an aftermarked head unit??
