Just wanted to say hi to everyone here on the forum! I sold my BMW after almost 7 amazing years and 62,xxx miles, and picked up a 2005 TL 5AT with only 26,2xx miles! The TL was always dealer maintained, with oil changes every 3,000/4,000 miles, 2 alignments and whatever else was scheduled/needed. The car is flawless
. Was a one owner local trade for a new Caddy.
BUT the car is just a "plain" TL (of course fully loaded like all). So I think tint will be the first mod and then on to an oem replica lip spoiler and I want black lettering for the front bumper where "ACURA" is engraved.
Can anyone reccommend a sponsor for the lip spoiler and maybe black vinyl lettering for the front bumper (of course if sponsors offer them)![Wish](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/wish.gif)
I saw a few lip spoilers on ebay, they all come painted and are from different sellers and all priced differently. any ideas about these?

Here's a couple photos of my new to me TL and, if anyone is interested, a couple of the BMW I sold to purchase this car. It was getting dark and rainy out so the pictures aren't the best.

Thanks guys, I hope I can help out with tips/tricks but since i'm new I think I will be more asking/searching for help.
BUT if anyone has questions about the e46 bmw or any bmw with m54 engine I could most likely help out. I just got rid of my e46 (pictured above) and I still have my 2002 e39 (530i Sport)

Czar, welcome to Acurazine! Tints are the best first mod you can do for any TL, any color. You'll want to look into an Aspec Kit, which will include the front lip, side skirts and rear end for your car. There is a group buy going on still (I think...). We also have a Search Engine on Acurazine, which will guide you around all of your mod questions (with pictures too). The ACURA front logos can also be found with a search.
Enjoy your new ride!

Welcome, glad to have you on the forum.
My first mod was the lip spoiler, then tint, then wheels, then... well I think you understand what happens when the mod bug attacks.
Have fun with your new TL!
