A-spec kit fitment question

Hey there, fairly new to the page. Have a couple questions for you guys.

I own a 2005 Acura TL and i'm planning to put in the A-spec kit around the car. My questions is if i want the 07-08 kit, would i be able to fit it into my 05?

Where would i get Brembo rotors and calipers for my car? I've looked around but i haven't been able to find any (Not Acura stock brembo).

Thanks guys!

An '07-'08 A-Spec kit can fit your '05 but there will be modifications you'll have to do, and it's my understanding it will never look completely flush. Truthfully, anything can fit if you're willing to modify them enough lol. Plus, the '07-'08 TL has fog lights so you'll need a set of those plus the wiring to make it look right.

Just get the '04-'06 A-Spec kit, it'll save you a lot of headaches.

I know i don't need them because OEM brakes are doing just fine. But in all honestly, just for looks. I've always love the big rotors and brembo caliper look on cars. While i also want quality out of it, so i don't waste my money.
