Car looks much better without the splitters. Nice pics. Keep them comming.

ed99

Love the car and the Pics!!!

Lokius

Look's fantastic, are you done with her yet buddy, or is there more to go till your satisfied?

narmeen

I cannot see any of the pics...is there something wrong with my computer or is there a setting??????

NO BRKS

Looks a whole lot better w/o the front splitter. Very nice TL!

cM3go

now the car looks 1000 times better than the TSX... good job.. the splitters were really killing the car...

ACCURATEin

These images were captured with a stock(non modified) sony 5.1 megapixel digital camera. A tripod helped reduce any blurs.

VTEC=Happiness... I have relatives in Hawaii and rice is a part of the culture. I'm sorry if I have offended the image of the TL with these modifications. Your TL in particular is exceptionally clean with all neutral colors, (excluding the red found in the tailights and license plate). I was wondering if you have any recent shots of your work.

da_illist_one...aloha. don't be afraid to speak pigeon with me...so you like da kine peekchahs? tanks brah!

ed99, NO BRKS, cTLGO....appreciate guys. You all were right about the splitters. I think it does look better. Im kinda glad theyre gone.

narmeen...if the images aren't showing up i can post them on the webshots website and maybe that will work.

Lokius...A carbon fiber trunk might work. I doubt anyone will make one, but we'll see. If i was in california near VISracing I would let them have my trunk to make a mold, but being that im over here in the east, I dont see that happening.
As for performance mods, comptech charger or the unorthodox underdrive pulleys.

As for the tsx...Does everyone really not feel the tsx?! You guys have got to be kidding me. I asked the oxner of it and said a photoshoot of the TL and TSX is possible. If I told you who chose the parts to go on the car, every last one of you will be dumbfounded. DROP JAW DOT COM dumbfounded. So retract any statements made before i reveal.

This TSX (ACCORD) is wicked. was dirty at the time.

cM3go

its the front and rear bumpers on that TSX that make it bad... there are better kits out there for the TSX than that one, Kenstyle, Mugen, etc etc...


btw, you didn't put the metal strip from the top of your grille back onto the CF hood?

ClnOB

I dont really know what that TSX owner was thinking. That is just plain FUGLY. For goodness sake that is a TSX not a CIVIC :-(

3PUTT

that tsx is too rice for my tastes....just my opinion

Lokius

TSX is a little too extreme for my tastes, props to the owner for being different, but I dont think I could drive it with a straight face...

ACCURATEin

cTLgo... i couldnt figure out how to take the aluminum strip off the stock hood. ill try it again when i get a chance.

The pictures arent doing justice for the TSX. We're planning a photoshoot coming soon. Stay tuned.

what rims are those on the tsx?

ACCURATEin

19" racing hart CXs...i think.

ayethetiense

uhm, what are you gona do about those holes that are left on your front lip kit form the splitter braces

ACCURATEin

The ball joint connector of the control arm is still attached to the car. I have a flat one piece splitter from VISracing sports that im going to install soon. Hopefully itll turn out. Ill take some pictures when im done and see what you guys think.

da_illist_onE

DOH!!!

can i see some pics of the hood under sunlight? where did you get it? (sorry if this was already asked)

LessisBestmakingendsmeet

I don't understand, if you really wanted a sports sedan, why not get a G35? Then when u add this look to your car, it makes sense. Instead, you turned another luxury Acura into a rice rocket.

Lokius

In my opinion a riced out G35 looks as tasteless or more tasteless than a riced out TL, there isnt much of a difference, now that Acuraratein has gotten rid of the front splitters, I think his car looks amazing, rice would be a fat 2 foot spoiler and huge carbon splitters, car doesnt have either of those

ACCURATEin

Its part of a culture that a 55 year old residing in a small town would more than likely not understand. I reside in a city which is comprised of a broad spectrum of automobiles, from your tipical stock honda civic to the rare ~340,000 dollar maybach. (my roomate works for a valet company and eloquently parked it beside my TL at sullivans steakhouse, should have taken a picture.) This is also a city where I saw a 3rd gen TL in every factory color all in one night within a 1 hour time span. I am simply customizing my TL to differentiate myself from everyone else out on the street. It is a passion and a past time that is instilled within me and will continue to be.

I challenge you to broaden your mind and creativity and strive to find ideas of how to differentiate yourself and make your car as unique as possible.

If i were to have purchased a G35 it would probably have the greddy twin turbos with 19 inch volk wheels with a hellacious lip in the rear. I would have the nastiest carbon fiber hood and hell i dont even know what else.

JtunedTL

Cleanest ride I've seen on this site so far, good work!

PDX3.2TL

The TSX looks clean IMO. The kit is decent and definatly sets himself apart from everyone else which was (i'm Sure) his intent. As for the front spitter on his kit, that's got to go. It takes away from the clean look of the kit. TOo much. As for the TL, why did you decide to paint/vinal the headlights to the dash? It would look so much cleaner had you left it stock CF. Good look anyhow. Congrats on being distinct.

ACCURATEin

XjoEnX... Ill try and get some good pictures of the hood under sunlight. The hood was made by Custom Carbons in Cali and was bought off ebay for $300.

Lokius, JtunedTL...I appreciate the positive feedback.

PDX3.2TL...The parts that went on that TSX were decided by a lady in her 40s, just to clarify. (Not a him, amazing huh?!) I can guarantee none of you would have guessed that.

I have not painted the hood. Its the exact oem style hood but CF. I havent decided if i should paint the edges to match the lines. Maybe i will, maybe i wont.
Also thanks for the words...my goal is to be distinct.

da_illist_onE

Interesting... your right, would have never guessed. I just can't picture a lady in her 40s driving that thing around.

Pro Stock John

What color are the rims on your TL, gold or bronze?

Would they look good on a anthracite car? Love your car still!

@cUr@-TL

definitly a nice looking car... im not a fan of the splitters but they're not too bad.. to my surprise the CF hood looks pretty nice!


good job

Lokius

His wheels are bronze, I think diamond black or the new titanium gunmetal would look great on anthracite.

Pro Stock John

What does diamond black look like?

2XBling

Odd... I am also in Charlotte and saw you a few weeks ago on Harris. The exhaust sounds awesome.

ACCURATEin

Pro Stock John...Lokius is correct theyre bronze. My friend had a anthracite TL but he traded it in. If he still had it i would have mounted the wheels on his TL and took pictures for you. Maybe you can try photoshopping a picture of my car and make the white an athracite hue (if thats possible).

2Xbling...was my car at open throttle when you heard it? what does your car look like?

I appreciate everyones words.

2XBling

You were at the corner of Idlewild and Harris and pretty much punched it from the line. Sounded Awesome. I was in a friends car and told him to catch you but no luck . I have a NBP with tint and that's about it. I'm always in that area and Southpark as well.

ACCURATEin

haha thats cool. i must have had anger management problems that day. im glad you got to hear the comptech. are you planning to modify your TL?

JtunedTL

Hey, who fabricated your CF hood? Is it all carbod fiber or does it have a fiberglass frame?

ACCURATEin

JtunedTL....The hood was manufactured by a company named 'Custom Carbons' and theyre located somewhere in california. I ordered it off ebay for $300. Theres a frame so its not 100% carbon fiber. Im not sure what its made of.

VTEC=happiness

JTuned...called VIS and see if they have a CF hood fabricated for us yet. Their work is always the cleanest in my experience.

JtunedTL

Sounds good.... I think I'm going to get mine from Fiber Images in L.A.
Their hoods are 100% CF including the frame. One of my boys had one of their hoods on his 94 hatch and it was one of the best I've seen.
Thanks for the input guys...

ACCURATEin

Heres a picture of RO_JA's TL. Does anyone know who manufactured the hood on it? The front bumper on this one is what im waitin for. Hopefully theyll produce it.



Here is a shot of the carbon fiber deck lid spoiler. Im tryin to find one of these as well.



JTunedTL....ill be in LA from the 24-28 of this month. where is fiber images located? i might have to go check out there shop and if they have a hood in stock i might have to make a purchase.

JtunedTL

They are located in Palmdale, Ca(L.A. area). You can get the address from their website, or give them a call. They make everything custom, you should be able to get anything you want made out of CF from there. So you don't like the hood you have now?
