Sorry, the second after I posted the question I realized it was Ronjon. I havent seen many ronjon kits, and for some reason the angle made it look a little different.

I only wish Ron Jon Kits were a lot cheaper or close to the price of the A SPEC because I think the RON JON looks 1000% better than the A SPEC.

Do it! Trust me, you won't regret it. Even if it takes you a year to pay off the charge. I'll never get tired of the compliments I get every single day about my car.

Yea if you got the money go for it, definitely a very nice kit. Do make sure you get it painted at the acura body shop so its an exact color match. A few members have had issues with the body shops trying to match the paint, so spending alil bit more now will save you in the end.

You can buy the RonJon kit in pieces-you don't have to get the entire kit. I myself do not like the rear, but I'd love to have the nose and side skirts. If you can afford it-GET IT !!!!

Everyone has A-Spec kits-but I agree with you. I think the RonJon kit looks much better anyway.

By the way guys, I've had a friend who owns a body shop paint my roof spoiler and the match is perfect. I know what you mean by having an Acura body shop shoot the paint, but you don't have to-if you have a reliable source that knows what they are doing.

PM me and I'll tell you what I paid.

Also, +2 on letting Acura paint it. Rick Case painted mine and it came out pretty damn close to OE paint.

Do I have to call them to get them in pieces because I think the front is beast? Wish they sold them on eBay so I can the cashback program!

wow, these bodykit questions have been popping up a lot. I think it's time people start making more kits for the TL since the demand is high and supply and diversity is really low...

MS cashback for eBay has stopped working for weeks now.

and yes, you should call RonJon and ask him how much to part out a kit.

Champ, I would give Rondy a call and order direct from him. There is a link in the upper right hand corner of Acurazine.

imo debating between aspec and ronjon is like debating between color. The car looks good in either, and it comes down to personal preference.

Could you get away with the ronjon kit without the rear piece and add the a-spec rear?

you should be able to, call him up or email him and see if he can split up the kit for you.

Guys, I e-mailed Rondy on December 1st. The pricing he gave me as of that date was $690 for the front, $480 for the side skirt pair. The pricing might have changed, but that is the pricing Rondy gave me on December 1st. I hope this helps.

Has anyone gone with an RJ front and sides and A-Spec rear? I'm curious how that would look.

Get the RJ and A-spec bodykits and put them both on and make them overlap. Sorry I couldn't resist.
