[QUOTE=psheu]thanx for the warm comment from the look of your avitar, ur ride is pretty good and clean also



Thanks. I took that picture in Key Biscayne when I was in Miami 2 years. I have an '06 w/Aspec minus the suspension and wheels. I have already installed the Type-S tails and sidemarkers, but what I'm really paying close attention to is the exterior rearview mirrors! It seems to be a hard mod, but looking at your ride, it can be done. This is my next task at hand. I've attached my sig so you can get an idea of my ride. Keep up the good work!

Great idea. The hardest part on the side rearview mirror is the blinker wireing. the mounting part is easy. there r serveral ways to wire those blinkers. one way is to splice to the front blinkers. the other is wire it into the fuse box. i have them done at the dealer and they wire the blinkers just like the 07 TL. since i didn't install the wireing so all i know is it can be done. plus u get a bigger mirror as a result (less blind spot)

looks nice! the only thing about your car that i would remove are those side moldings... but they do help if you park close to other cars!

Talking

i like the look of th 04-06 aspec lip but i know an acura mechanic that bought an grey 04 tl that had front end damage and fixed it up with the type s front grille, bumper, lip, headlights, and the type s wheels and tails. It looked pretty good in the grey since they dont make it in that color. He drove it around fo about 2 weeks and just sold it. He made $7,000 off of it!!

nope... u can use the existing one.... all of the 3rd gen use the same absorber.... i got an extra one in the garage because that's the deal I got... now I have no idea what to do with it:P

a lot of people told me to wire it to the fuse box... but i just simply tap it into the integrated foglights using a wire splicer and it works like a charm... all you need is 4X 2 feet long wires.... till this day i have no problem yet and i use my foglights every nite... so right now when I turn on the foglight, all for lights comes on.... or u can re-route the wire to make the bottom one comes on only.... (they both have the same socket for the integrated and lower mount foglight)... ive shown them to the acura electrical mechanic and he said that's a clean install and won't cost any problem nor void warrenty

PSHEU....

I have an 04 ASPEC.

Which kit is lower?? The 07 TLS front bumper with the Lip.. OR the 04 ASPEC lip??

In other words.. which is closer to the ground

and by how much??

Do you notice it being lower?... See I don't really care for the fogs. but from the pictures it seems the 07 TLS with lip bumper is lower than the 04 with aspec..

one thing that annoys me is how the lip goes up a bit on the center. so its car from the ground.. I'm thinking of lowering the front of my car to get that nose down a bit. makes it look more aggressive.

can you confirm this for me please?

Thank you
