Im looking at the following picture:

Do you guys think that with an aftermarket body kit, the 04 TL can look like that? That car looks so HOT!!!

To Bad that car really is a TSX.

How about this photo chop pic (even though it is a coupe), how about that front nose!







That would be some kit for the nose!

Little too ricey for my tastes. A few changes and it might not be bad but smells a little uncle bens to me.

I guess you do not like the nose on the M5 or RS6 either?

I actually meant ricey about the TSX in the link not the CL photoshop. I like the photoshop but the TSX looks like it has too much bolted on it.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

No worries. I would love to see a TL built that looks like that with the clean lines and stuff not looking like it is bolted onto the car. That is the biggest problem I have with body kits. A small lip spoiler would complete the look on the pchop pic.

I agree chadr, I hate kits that are not integrated and as such, have stayed away from the Acura kit (plus the big open gap in the center of the lower bumper is not to my liking, but is there because it is a bottom breather), and to get the look of the phchop image, it would mean an new bumper.

I would happily be the test subject to check for overheating for anyone who could make a similar nose to the gold coupe photo.

I have asked my friend in the autobody buisness if he knowso of anyone, will keep you posted.
