Question: Installation tip for 2007-08 Base TL A-Spec front kit onto Type-S

hi guys~

i spent much time to research the method for installing base tl aspec front kit onto my type-s. there are many pics of comparison but no installation guides. members mentioned that fog light area difference causes unfitting onto type-s by base aspec front body kit. can anybody help how to modify and install onto my type-s?

I don't think that's what he's asking.

OP do you have the base lip yet to test fit it?

Are you trying to put the "base" tl lip on or the base tl "aspec" lip on. You do know that there is 2 lip styles for the base tl and one for the type s right. I'm just making sure which lip you are talking about.

I don't think the base aspec lip would fit but you can try to do it and be the first with it. The base lip will fit the type s though with very little cutting but if you want it to look proper then you'll have to take it to a body shop to have them blend it in better.
