let the mods begin...

hi guys, im fairly new here therefore im not sure if this thread belongs here but i love my car to death and feel like this is the best place for me to get advice and show my baby to the world haha and all the diffrent mods that she will soon be going though... so far shes barely been touched but that shall change lol .. sorry for the pic quality , they are phone pics and u kno the phone pic quality -_-

i have an 2005 TL wit navi

so far i have changed the tail lights, and colored the grill(which was unexpected due to the fact that i just dropped my car off to fix the front bumper and the guy got alittle creative) but i dont mind it its not that bad, to come are the tints and duno wat else yet lol

yea tints, aspec kit and drop should be next on your list...but that also depends on if you want to do performance or looks first!
happy modding and make sure you have DEEP pockets!

dang huh, im trying to fix scratches and chips in my bumpers and i have two big ones on the back bumper and a few knicks on my front bumper.

they said they have to just "refinish" the bumpers but the two scratches on the back are gonna cost 185 a piece and 285 for the front x_X

so like 500 dollars for two bumpers... i was like x_X wtf...

yea that sucks, thats a lot since u said u only have a few scratches, the thing with mine was that a dog hit me... lmao yes a dog hit my car, (and it lived) and it cracked my front right side of the bumper so me being the way that i am i had to fix it asap so i just ordered the bumper from acura and got it painted and installed... but maybe u should get estimates somewhere else... cause thats alittle high for just a few scratches... good luck wit that

A SPEC kit first, than drop, than that should be it. UR pulley, RSB first on performance mods. Than Pre-cat deletes, Jpipe, than Exhaust (ATLP). Than other cost effective products like the comptech s/c
