Custom Modded 04-06 TL A-Spec?

Hey Guys,

Anyone has photos of the 2004-2006 TL's with the custom made, a-spec front and rear lip kits? Also the side skirts.....I know few body shops who can do it real nice, but they need someone with an original a-spec kit fitted in their TL to examine and measure all the dimensions and material needed for the lip kit. The problem is, there was only one acura showroom (acura woodbine), they got bankrupt few days back and they were the only ones who would be willing to get me the NBP tl a-spec lip kit. Otherwise I would have to go to the US and get it from hondaacuraworld or some place else. All the other acura dealers in T.O. says they dont carry that a-spec lip kit anymore.

So if anyone has any photos of a tl with custom made a-spec lip kit, please do share and if anyone in toronto is willing to spend an hour giving their kit's dimensions etc. along with me, please do let me know.

sorry man...the topic name should have been custom made, dont know why I mistyped it. Anyways, I know that the original a-spec lip kits would be better and cheap to fit as well, but nowhere around toronto, anyone is selling a-spec lip kits. the dealers say those products have been discontinued. I guess I gotta get them this summer during my visit to NJ.

They are discontinued (out of production), but they can still be found. In fact, someone i know someone at Richmond Hill Honda was able to order me a set from Acura In Markham.

Unfortunately though, they were off-the-shelf parts so its impossible to find a whole set with matching colours. I was given a significant discount and i just sent them in for paint today. Cant wait to get them back and slap it on my car

well ordering them from the states and then getting it shipped is a problem for me since it would cost a hell lot more. I am better off putting the a-specs on during my summer visit to NY & NJ. However, I will keep an eye on some of the aspecs that might be sold in toronto....I have some links can get it done I guess. @Dougboy, how much did they cost you? no worries about the color or fitment, I know a good body shop.
