Recent NPB 2008 TL-Type S Owner

Hey guys,

I've been browsing the forums for a few weeks now, and made 1-2 posts. Just introducing myself to the AcuraZine community. I'll be posting pics of my car soon.

I just one general question, which i cannot figure out the answer to no matter how much i search. I've seen 100's of pictures of people with the A-Spec kit installed, and overall it doesn't look much different than what is on my TL-S right now. I'm pretty sure my TL-S is stock. Am I blind or is there a big difference between the kits?

Can someone post pics of OEM kit TL-S and A-spec kit TL-s. The one post i found with this title didnt load the pictures.

Thanks!

Ths A-Spec kit for '04 - '06 is different than the kits for the TL-S. Not sure which you've been looking at pictures of.

The sides and rear are sublte. The front is much more obvious, just by shape alone.

WELCOME SHAM!!! You clearly have good taste...check my garage for more pics of the aspec kit on an 08 NBP - I just installed it 2 weeks ago. It was pretty easy and definitely sets the car off - I highly recommend it. I got it from AckTL05, who is a vendor on here. Hit him up!

You know what's funny, I had already bought the kit from AckTL05 before I made this post. I read so much about the A-Spec kit, and saw how basically every single person had it on. So i ordered it... then i'm looking at my car the next morning, and looking at A-spec pictures while i'm waiting for kit at home and i got kinda worried. I was like did i just pay $760 for something i already have....
