WOW ! That car is the best looking TL-S I have ever seen! I especially love the front with that aggressive look! The whole kit screams "Everybody Wants Me!" And the color seals the deal! I bet your buddies hate you!

I can get the black/taupe or blue/ebony, but I really want the black/black.
Sorry for being a little off topic on this thread, but I didn't know how to pm you.
btw, if it's not too much trouble, can anyone who own the black/taupe combo post some pics?
Thanks.

07 TL-S ASM just put on A-Spec body kit. I was thinking on getting the A-Spec coilovers, but I want to know how much lower the coilovers will lower. They say about 1" with the 18" A-Spec wheels. But the 18" wheels with the 235-40-18 tires are the same height as 235-45-17. So I guess the coils lower about 1". Which is what I want. I like the 07 TL-S grey 17" wheels when the car is clean with the tires fully black dressed. When its dirty I don't like the wheels. I have been searching BIG TIME for a GREAT looking 18-19" wheel that fits the FCKN Brembo's.

For the same price just get Teins.

I LOVE THE rear A-SPEC it is almost as if they listen to all of the concerns about too much plastic and made it flow MUCH better....
Unfortunatley i can't say the same about the front, it just does not flow well at all like the previous models A-Spec kit. It sticks out and look really humpy and awkward, the side skirts still look good exactly the same as before..
Overall look really really good... But these things look 1000X better with A-Spec rims over the TL-S rims... don't like them at all but that is only my taste
nice ride though

I just dont like how the new A-Spec front piece goes 1/2 way up the bumper it looks like it is taped on and does not flow well at all, it looks like something from an old cheap civic body kit...
IF only Acura could have made a ONE PIECE front bumper for the A-Spec kit..
That would be so hot

Ok...I'm curious it seems that 'mostly' TLs are hooking up w/A-Spec ground effects...I currently have a TL-S and would like to alter the look but Im' not SOLD on the changes a few grand in A-Spec or RonJon bottoms would look COMPARED to stock bottom on the TYPE S. Is there a before and after pictoral of TypeS w/these changes? whats the big differences..I think if you change out the stock shoes and tint that would make for a meaner change ?? your thoughts???

Your car looks really nice -- i have an '04 Aspec .. and I really hate how the front spoiler looks sooo... pontiac .... afterthought.... taped on .. etc.
I wonder if a good custom body shop could MELD the two together : the OEM front bumper and the front underspoiler .. sand it/smooth it .. and paint it so that it looks like one piece.

the chrome piece comes off when they put the a-spec kit. Thats one thing I didnt like about the kit but it is what it is.

LOL I love the ones that actually go OUT of their way to cover the license plates... like someone is going to steal your identity with it or something...
