WTB TL, need opinions

im buying an 04-05 TL within the next year, i found some good deals now but i want one under 30k miles for low to mid 20 thousand, however I want the Aspec but cant seem to find many on the market, should I...

Wait and buy a TL ASPEC already put together?

Buy the regular TL and put the 5600 dollar option on it?
OR
Buy the regular TL, Skip the steering wheel, and buy the Body Kit separate from the honda site for 800, spoiler separate (spoiler depot has em for 250 painted i believe), put eibach springs on it with some struts (800 im guessing for parts and install?) and then buy tires rims separate (1000-2000) That would take care of all the parts i belive and id have a custom Aspec. or should i just skip doing suspension work?


Thanks for any opinions i really appreciate, first step to buyin the TL is finding out which way i should go in looking for one.

I would buy the regular TL and purchase the A-Spec separately. You don't have to pay $5600 for the option if you buy online.

Suspension $600 (required, makes car handle as if on rails)
Wheels $1200? Don't know what the latest is
Body kit $800+ depending on where you buy it.

This doesn't include install, but even including it you won't come even near $5000.

any other opinions, perhaps someone who had the a spec then went to eibach, or just anyone with one or the other. i need to start lookin but i gotta decide what to look for first.

whats different with the Aspec steering wheel, is that a good idea to buy it too, or just a waste of 400 bux?
