New to the 3rd gen scene

hey guys, my girl just got a 2006 TL so i decided to join so i could see what and how i could do to mod her car...so far we have in mind is to get a set of type-s tail lights and other little things...ill probably be doing most of the work myself but this will be a learning experience since ive never worked around a honda/acura since i own a nissan maxima...i look forward to ur opinions and thoughts to what i could do to her car

I couldn't agree more!!!!

edit: an a-spec kit is one of the VERY few mod's out there that add's to the value. even if she get's rid of it the a-spec will help the resale ALITTLE.........

just wondering what kinda leds you used for the plate bulbs? i was also thinking bout doing this in the near future and looking for a blueish looking light bulb. not too blue. but kinda bright/blue like yours. just wondering if anyone could recommend a bulb maybe?
