Another TL on TEs

Just picked these up yesterday, gave them a good cleaning along with the car. I think the color of the rims go great with the car. The fronts didnt clear BBK w/out a 3mm spacer. The specs are 19x8 +43. The rear definitely needs to be pushed out a little more.

Brother, your car always look great. The wheels really set it off. I still love the Carbon Fiber hood. Have you ever considered blacking the top? It would continue the lines of your blacked-out nose to the hood. It might really tie it all in!! Maybe that could be your next mod.

Thanks, I've considered doing the roof black, but then idk how it would look without doing the trunk in black.

Wanderer, you'll be OK without doing the trunk. A lot of guys have this looks without doing the trunk-it looks good. Actually, I think doing the trunk is a little too much. Give it consideration. Your windows are tinted, which will keep the "stripe" going all the way down to the edge of the trunk anyway.

Looks really nice. Should've kept the window visors black to keep the contrast.

You've got a type-s, but you removed the fog lights to accommodate the 04-06 a-spec?

I wasnt a huge fan of the type s aspec at the time, but am starting to like it a lot more now lol. But i think the base aspec flows a lot better with my theme anyways.

True, maybe ill do the black vinyl to see how it looks before having it painted.

Thanks, after seeing your car at the meet with your new wheels, thats what made me want to switch up to 19s. Car looks so good with the bigger wheels. I just hope i don't bend these like my last set of 19s lol.

Welcome to the TE37 club, seems to be growing in numbers! Lately, I think my bronze TE's may become gold soon, maybe a custom gold though!

TE's and TL go sooooo well together, it would be every TL fans' ultimate dream that Acura endorsed them as their ASPEC rim. Just like how Z's use Nismo (Rays).

Looking hot!
