it's been done, the installer just has to get creative with "L" shaped brackets...
to anything RonJon & not cause of the money factor someone stated...or waste of for that matter.

I like the RonJon kit but I (think) the ONLY way you can get it is to buy the whole shebang (at least it was when I looked last time) and due to that approach, it was about three (3) times more expensive that the A-Spec street prices ($2,100 vs. $700) so while I like the look, the cost may put it out of reach for about 90% of the potential target audience. Sure, there are a number of people on here that sink massive quantities of expendable income in their TL's and for those it's probably an acceptable price but for the masses, the 3-to-1 cost difference is going to throw it over the fence to the A-Spec kit nearly every time. I think one guy on here did get just the front end" but that was an expectation rather than a regular marketing approach. Has this changed? Can we now buy "just the front" from RonJon?

Someone on this forum did do that already... I think it was an Anthracite TL, and I forget his name, but I believe a drunk drive killed his car. He had rims by Maya on there too (right?). Maybe you should check out Anthracite pic thread.

it's me, Alan Rickman.
RJ kit looks good, but i'll go for the A-Spec body kit when i'm ready; not to knock the RJ kit but I think the A-Spec kit as mentioned above keeps the TL looking classy while adding a bit more aggressiveness.. plus who would want to get rid of the ACURA lettering on the front?!?!?
Side question since it was mentioned; does A-spec look horrible with factory ride height or something??? 2 people said you've got to drop it - I scrape enough as is and don't plan on lowering the car..

you're probably just scraping the plastic on the bottom.

Those are only the front pics. Where da back pics at...cuz you know it don't look too good dats why you only showin the front pics. The ricer days are long gone....back around 1999 to 2000, itd look okay but ron jon is just too damn ricey. I don't know what the designer of the kit was thinking. You should definitely get the a spec. 10000 times better. RJ kit is WHACK!!!!!
