What are my choices for a front lip for the TL?

Still new to the forums and trying to find out more about the TL. So I'm thinking about eventually getting a front lip for the TL and at the whole kit to save money. Are there different OEM front lips available for the 04-08 TLs or is there only 1 choice? Just by looking at some pics it looks like there are at least 2 different OEM choices from looking at TL-S front lips. Are these able to fit in a regular 05 TL?

Please post pics if possible! thanks!!

You already posted this same thread in the photo section. Which I think is a pointless thread as well because if you use the search feature you will find your answer as well as a million pics.

In other words.

To answer your question.. Theres 3 different a-spec front lips for the 3 different models. Each one is specific and wont fit with different bumpers unless you do some modifications because of how the lower grill is shaped.

04-06 Base

07-08 Base

07-08 Type-S



Hope this helps, and please.. if you want pictures look in the photo gallery. TONS of them there.

yea you can, lots of work though because they're not direct fit(04-06's doesnt have fog light in the lower grill). look at the garage, theres DIY if you wanna do it, it uses the accord fog light.

What kind of mod do I need to do to put the 07-TLS bumper on my 06?

I was thinking about just adding the accord fog lights, but this route seems to be more complicated.

hey, gotkilled, ever heard of http://4aeauto.com/? I want to have somebody do it for me, but they are not really doing it anymore, since it's apparently too much work to do.

so, wanna just put the 07-TLS bumper if it really fits.
