Hello all, I am about to repaint my grill (spelled grille?), and since I have to take off the bumper, I thought I should take care of a couple of other things while I am at it.

So Currently on my list:
-Replace purple looking look xenons

Anything else?

 

- Pull out your intake silencer

 

Clear your headlights, Mount HID ballasts and install HID kit for your fogs, clean your CAI filter if you have one,

 

Cool!

Anything maintenance related?

 

install tranny cooler, will help with autos.

 

If you have the lower fogs, install plexiglas on the openings to protect the fogs. Mine were yellow.

 

I thought you sold your TL-S? lol

 

hmm thats a good idea ... how indepth is an install like this?

 

Yes I did, but still remember the mods.

Very easy. Just cut out the plexiglas into squares and epoxy them into the inside of the bumper bezel's and you're done.

 

Rember you'll have to invest some money on those but really worth it !!

1- Remove headlight and Blacked them out
2- Install a Cold Air Intake - Really easy 15min MAX if bumper already off (video on youtube)
3- Install some Accord fog lights in the bumper with HIDs if you have prior 07 TL
4- Replace DRL or Fogs with HIDS
5- Replace blinkers buy switchBack VLEDS yellow/white

I think its enough lol

 

you dont HAVE to take off the bumper for 4 and 5 above but it would make things easier I suppose.

 

^^That wasnt the point....he asked what to do when the bumper is OFF

 

clean your fenders and wax them where the bumpers meet
