RonJon vs A-Spec? Take a Vote Now!

Which one would you choose: A-Spec or RonJon? Lets assume they are both selling at the same price.

By the way, I kinda like the RonJon a little better with A-spec side + back but I have not seen them in person so i don't know.

The RJ makes the TL look bloated to me. A-Spec is where it is at.

Actually, it's the other way around...A-Spec is the boxy one-look at the nose!

Yep, the only weird thing about RonJon is the drop off tail.

I think if you do go with the RJ, the key is picking the right set of wheels for it to look right.

The white one above the wheels do nothing for the kit to me.

It might be true that most A-Spec owners voted for A-Spec because of the fact that it's OEM and it's cheaper. I wonder what would be the result if RonJon kit were OEM and/or cheaper.

I think I would still go A-Spec, just the overall appearance of the car is totally different. I think the RJ kit requires at least 19 if not 20" wheels because it give the car a bigger look to it requiring bigger wheels.

I Vote RJ but then again I'm biased I guess... LoL Here's my front end I just felt that it was more unique and I couldn't be happier, but I think both kits make the car look 100x better. From what I gather most people make their decision on cost, since RJ costs a lot of money.





This was before the fogs:

IMHO --> a-spec! but i've seen some members here that has a pretty sweet RonJon set up (ie. look up a member named Trew), but if we were to say that Ron Jon was "less" expensive...i'd still sport the a-spec kit!

I was up in the air about this very same topic before I got my kit. But as Steven Bell said, I wanted to try something different. I never looked back once I got my RJ kit. It was a GREAT decision.

Thanks man. Your car was studied well and hard when I was faced with making the decision on a body kit. Your car is wicked awesome dude.

We have got to do a photoshoot! Full RonJon WDP and NBP together. How much better can TL pics get? Not sure how much you're down here, but PM if interested. I'm near Coral Springs.

There is not much we can do to th G TL when it comes to body kits and engine performance.
Some might say there is supercharger but I think if I pay $4000 I would expect at least HP out of it.

I might be down in Janauary, if I get approved for this early rotation for med school that I'm doing... so lets see... I'm keeping my fingers crossed. If so then we'll definitely get a nice shoot going.

Can you post a pic of the side so I can compare how much lower the ronjon front sits compare to the a-spec rear bumper?
