A-Spec body trim. Any A-spec owners take off the trim?
I like most every option with the A-Spec package but the body trim. Lip spoiler is fine but the body trim seems just too much. I know many of you will differ with me.
I have installed the A-spec steering wheel, suspension, rims, and lip spoiler.
Anyone else like me out there?

I don't think the body kit is rice - infact most people don't even notice the difference, but it is poorly designed and crappy... so if I keep having the same problems with it that I am now, I will make the dealer pull it off... assuming there isnt any other damage...

Here are before and after shots... I think you're crazy if you think the bodykit is too ricey... all I get is compliments .. it really sets the Tl apart from the bazillions of other TL's out there now (the TL is fast becoming the new Altima 2.5s of the road... tons out there).

I agree 100% EVERYONE has a TL now and they all look the same. The A-SPEC body kit looks more sporty not "ricey".

I don't think this is ricey at all. My TL definitely stands out in the crowd here of TLs here in NJ. Even though I have the stock 17" rims and factory suspension (for now) it still looks good IMHO.......

Ive installed two of the kits on my 04 and 05 TLs. You can remove all but the rear spoiler. The rear will leave holes in your rear bumper that are obvious. The front and side can be removed without any visible holes.

Can someone tell me exactly where they drilled holes in the rear bumper for installation. I never had to drill any holes, and my rear spoiler has been holding on flawlessly .. i just used all the bolts and screwed it into the wheel well (had to take both rims off to do this).
Thanks
Thanks

Just so we are talking about the same piece I am referring to the lower section of the A-Spec bodykit that frames the lower part of the rear bumper and exhaust, not the rear deck spoiler that sits on top of the trunk lid. Hopefully this helps?
No

The OEM kit is a definate must on the TL. And i have to agree with the 2.5 Altima statement. TL's are becoming way too common and the easiest way to set them apart is with a subtle kit. Although I think the 3rd Gen front bumper is hidious with or without the kit, the rest of the car definatly needs it, especially when including the A-Spec rims... mmmm... i like.
