do i have to change my front bumper in order to get the front aspec kit of a type s? if i can do it will i need anything els like a lower girl or somethign? [please respond im taking my car to the body shop in like 2 hours

 

i remember there was a talk about this but i cant find it

 

Nope... the ASPEC kit just mounts to ur factory bumper... It's extremely easy! Good luck!

 

he doesnt have a type-s.....

 

yeah my car is a base

 

I'm not sure if it'll work with the lower grills being slightly different. I've seen people with type-s' put the base aspec on their front bumper, but I'm not sure I have seen people with an 07-08 base put on the type-s aspec. Not saying it hasnt been done, it probably has, but be aware, there might be some cutting to be done.

 

Fine... I take my pic back then! LoL I didn't think there was a difference...? They both have the same fog setup and everything I thought.

 

no they dont

base flare up, type-s flare down. Grills are different and have different p/n's

 

everyone have their own taste.
for me nope to the TYPE-S aspec front kit.
none type s front kit look better since your car is base,but rear aspec type-s is drool.

 

so do you need to remove your back bumper to put on an a spec kit on a tl s ?

 

I had to for the 04-06 aspec, not sure if the type-s kit is the same.

 

Yeah u do...

 

well guys thanks for the info but im getting the base lip... for 08 ty

 

Get it.. it looks nice..

 

looks great... i get my car back wends with a full aspec kit a black roof and grill

 

Pics when you get it back!

 

I also read a thread a while back where someone with a type-s said they had to do a complete front bumper swap in order to get the '06 front Aspec lip kit to fit. The front lip on the type-s is not as nice. Apparently the older front will easily fit the type-s and then all you do is install the '06 aspec lip.

I'd like more information on this also if someone can post the original thread or provide more answers. I did some research and people have posted that you can buy a new front bumper for around $350 and I find that quite cheap with a DIY install.

Hope my facts are straight.

 

got you! but ill try and put some up by friday lol i work a lot this week so its hard to make time but i got you lol

 

heres a teaser that a friend of mine who works in the body shop sent me..

 

i just hate that orange in the head light you should change it. but if you like it thats what counts... i put mines in black but im getting them cleared soon..

 

how do you get that done with the headlights? i have an 08 NBP type s and probably won't do anything else to it but some blacked or clear lights instead of the orange would look really sick. i looked for them online but couldn't find anything.

 

Search for member JnC. He does all the custom headlights and does a SICCK job.

 

thanks!

 

that lip kinda look funky

 

^x2 looks retarded...lmao but the rear lip/spoiler is

 

To each his own... But I'd rather have a TL then an electrical problem filled bimmer!

Yeah I like the orange.. I had a del Sol which came OEM with white corners and I got them painted to get the amber look..

 

yea I discussed this long ago... the type s aspec fits all years...

 

What Electrical problem? I was just sayin that the front lip just dont flow with the car...
