RonJ on Kit Vs. A-spec

I'm not sure if anyone has already done this or not but i thought this would be a good topic for discussion. Which kit do you prefer, Ron Jon or A-Spec. Don't want to start any arguments just want a general concensus. Make sure to include why you like which one better.

I'll start by saying I personally am a fan of the Ron Jon kit. To me it just looks like it flows better with the car. The a-spec kit to me just does not flow as well. I'm a huge fan of clean lines. Just my I don't have either one as of now but will hopefully upgrade in the near future to one of them. Now, let's hear everyone else's opinion.

in all honesty, I have seen the RJ in person and the quality of it was amazing. I would do the RJ front, A-spec sides and rear with a drop.

When i first saw pictures of the Ron Jon and A-spec kit i was like wow. I really like the Ron Jon better than the A-spec til I went to the dealer and saw the A-spec TL in person. The A-spec kits make the TL look more aggressive. I went with the A-spec kits because its cheaper($700.00 for a completed kit painted). Plus it easy to get a replacement. A drop and wheels is a must with any kits.

RJ if money is not an issue and if you really like your car to stand out and going for style. I personally have Aspec with RJ wheels.

IMO-perfect.
i love the a-spec lip kit.
especially compared to the 2g tl or other honda's body kits
the RJ kit is extremely hot but expensive.
sorry i'm not feeling the rear
and i like that our side skirts come as 2 pcs
and match the door edge
i have the Aspec kit but i spent $$
for the RJ front which is on the way
I can't wait.
ps i spent more on the RJ front bumper unpainted
than i spent on my a spec kit.

I'm going to go A-spec also...its cheaper and your most likely going to get a better paint match since its from the Acura factory. That being said If money wasn't an issue I would get the RJ kit as it is much more unique. But again if money wasn't the issue would I really be driving a TL?

A spec, RJ wheels (Legends)...although the RJ kit is hot, i have to agree with Ball4lyfe. Takes out the classiness out of our cars......If the tl was my spare whip would def go with RJ

Hey ADabsolutNDN, I'm in Gatineau as well.
I got the RJ bodykit and I absolutely love it!
I got nothing but compliments on the kit so far.
My car was rebuilt so I had to get new bumpers and side skirts. When pricing things out, it was roughly the same price to get the Acura OEM bumpers and ASPEC bodykit than the complete RJ bodykit. For me, the choice was a no brainer!
I did in fact get a complete paint job therefore ensuring paint match.

Cheers!

i really really like this last pic....i have a TLS and i really wanted to put the rj front bumper but i don't see it working cuz of the fog lights down below...if rj made something similar to this front bumper i'd definitely go with that...until then imma say a-spec....i like the rear a-spec a lot!
