TL in Sport Compact Car
I am not sure if the issue was this month or last month but I was at my local shop today and I was thumbing through a very recent issue of Sport Compact Car. They did a erite up on the evolution of Acura as a car manufacurer and there were three pictures of a TL. It was a 3G TL with a slightly different front and rear end. The rear tail lights were fucking SICK!
AND NO IT WAS NOT THIS REAR END!
I know
so can anyone scan the pics from the magazine and post them? Man they really looked good on the car!

No... The tail light was still all red I believe. But it had noticably different sections inside the housing. A Large circle for braking and what looked like a smaller circle for reverse lights.

I guess the focus will be off JDM parts to CDM parts

Sorry to break it to you guys, but these pictures have been posted so many times on here. I think they date back to something like 2003! The concept TL. Let me see if I can find the originals.

datmrman: True they have been posted but I believe they refering to others.
I just looked through both the May and June issuse of Sport Compact Car and I did not find ANY pics of a 3G TL maybe that magazine was dated. Do you remember what was on the cover of the magazine?

I just recieved the July issue and yes they are TL pics but nothing new for the regulars here on the board, we have seen the pics. I'm going to do a little search to find a thread. Or I'll scan the magazine....
The article talks about the past 20 years of Acura and how they have made an impact on the Japp. cars....
