Couple pics of the A-spec rims, and attempted HDR shots :)
Put my A-spec rims and took off the sunroof visor.
Next is to take off the body side moldings, coilovers, CAI, jpipe and more.
I am on A-spec suspension also right now.
^^ This was actually not one of my HDR attempts but kinda looks like one
And here are my two HDR attempts
Pics were actually taken with a point and shoot camera.
Trying to save up for a DSLR someday

The car looks great! I'm not a big fan of the side body moulding, but that's just my opinion, and as long as you are happy with the car that's all that matters. And has others have mentioned, I also love the location where you put the A-Spec Badge...great thinking.

Maybe get the rear TL-S side markers? But then again I'm sure you have a list of things to do to your car before those haha. I have my list saved on my desktop

Thanks for the comments everyone!!
I wonder if im the only one with the aspec badges on the sideskirts?
Anyways anyone with tips on photography or HDR images?
I took it off because i didn't really like how it looked, i think it looks wayyy cleaner with it off Plus i really dont see what the purpose of it is anyways lol. I dont see how it will block out water with the sunroof slightly open?? And i already actually sold it. I say you spend that $100 else where but thats just my

Well why would you want your sunroof open while it was raining? I just don't get it haha. I either have the A/C on or all of my windows down, I don't go inbetween. But I'm glad you took it off...car looks real clean. I love the A-Spec rims...I was considering selling my RJ's and getting a set and having them powdercoated a glossy black and slamming my car, but it turned out it would be too expensive

Very clean! first time I've seen the Aspec badges on the side skirts... other than the issue of always being dirty and maybe difficult to keep clean, I think I am a fan of the placement!!! Still trying to figure out where to put mine....
I had a sunroof visor on my old 95 Accord that was "handed down" to me about 10 years ago... I was told it was supposed to cut down the wind noise.. I dont have a visor on my new TL and dont plan on putting one on, and so far have no problems with wind noise.... so who knows?!!!

Hello. I'm also looking to add ASpec rims and suspension to my 2006 TL. Do you do his through an Acura dealer? Would you mind sharing how much these options cost? Thanks.
I called some dealerships and found out the aspec suspension kits are no longer available. I guess I waited too long. Thanks.

^^Hey there , this is an old thread and most of these guys are long gone.
But to answer your questions: the A-Spec suspension can still be had on Ebay from select Acura dealers...usually runs about $600 if I recall. The A-Spec wheels (18x8) can still be purchased at Acura dealers online, but it's crazy expensive. If you check the Black Market here on AZine, there is a set currently for sale and sets pop up for sale from time to time. Hope that helps
