Yo...yah let me no we should meet up...i could get my brother to bring his TL 05 with aspec kit n subs n shit and gonna put my type s rims on soon i think....


the rims on my car are 19' Ruff racing...nice but if u get them for type s need wheel spacers in the front =\ i found out the hard way.

subbuzz

I'm alway's down for a shoot. Hit me up anytime.......

Bgon

Where in jersey r u near? im by princeton

SweetJazz

It will not.............check out the fog light areas for the TL-P and TL-S. The sides of the foglight housings are at different angles.

flydog

Were the spacers hard to install? I heard you have to replace the wheel studs.

What was the offset on those wheels without the spacers?

subbuzz

I'm up north, by Linden. I'm alway's ready for a shoot where ever.......

actually prob gonna break out the tripod this weekend if weather permits.......

Bgon

I didnt install them because i didnt wanna go thru the hassle but you do gotta replace the wheel studs...it sucked cuz it took me like 3 weeks 2 get them because the company kept fucking up...and the offset i think was just 5.1444 i believe...the spacer is just for the front because the break pad is so big and you cant move (found out the hard way). but the company messed up and said tehy were for my car but really just regular TL witch really sucked and pissed me off...and i had to wait like 2 weeks on top of being shipped a day later cuz of the tires...thanks for the phone call? ha

Bgon

alright let me no tho if u wanna meet up with me n the other guy we can all meet up n do a sick one...i gotta get my sub fixed on friday and i gotta try to get my cold air intake or lowering kit...havent decided what one i want lol any idea's?

cleex024

well then that really does suck...cause i dont like the crazy look of the a spec front bumper spoiler...looks too damn big on top of the fog light. would have been ok if that was shaved down a little. anyone have any kind of suggestions on how i could get the look of the a spec front bumper of the tl-p? I would probably be willing to trade my new front type s bumper with a spec (NBP) for someones tl-p a spec front bumper...my car has 600 miles on it.

im not crazy about the a-spec front spoiler for the type-s at all it's too transformerish and bulges out too much, plus the hight of it doesn't match the rest of the kit. i ordered the base 07-08 TL front spoiler yesterday, im know a good body shop that does custom work. they're gonna mold the fog light area to fit my type-s. i'll be the first.

and yes i've done some research the 04-06 a-spec wont fit at all. the front of the 07-08 has a lip in the center below the ACURA lettering. the 04-06 are flat in the center and the a-spec lip attaches to that flush area on the older models.

i'll post some pics after it's done the car is going to the shop next week.

cleex024

so will the 06-08 tl-p a spec fit the type s? because that little lip under the acura sticks out a little more than the new tl-p. also look at the bumper where it meets the wheel well/fender, the tl-s sticks out a little while the tl-p bends to form the shape of the wheel well...if you look youll see what i mean.

cleex024

oh yeah and by the way, will the body shop be repainting the whole kit afterwards? because it already comes painted.

jptl04

everything is the same the only difference is the shape of the fog light housing. yes it will have to be repainted. because it will have to be cut and molded to fit. while it's there, i think im gonna have the shop go ahead and repaint the front and rear bumper as well. the mismatch is pretty noticeable. i know it's a thing with WDP color

subbuzz

lower first IMO. Make the dog look tough, then add the bark. I'll def be in contact soon Might try to get a shoot going this weekend.

Bgon

alright let me no...what kind of drop u got and how much is the drop? and what u pay for it? cuz i can get springs for 450-500 installed so its not bad so im thinking about it...

subbuzz

140 for comptech springs and I have a shop guy(friend) so install (I helped) was like nothing. so I really can't compare prices. I get discounted body/shop work.(got my rooflip painted for free).Weather permitting I'm gonna try for a photoshoot sunday.

AndyRu27

Lookin damn good guys. Makes me jealous, I need to talk the wife into the Aspec kit pronto.

cleex024

well let me know when you do get it done and how it looks...because i am really interested in doin it. does the aspec on tl-p sit lower than the aspec on tl-s? if it does then ill probably do what ur doin and go get it customized. where do u live anyway?? cause if you live in va or close maybe we can get it both done together and get better price? by the way what is he charging you anyway to get it done?

jptl04

iTrader: (1)

yea i'll post the pics when it's done. the front is gonna look like the WDP in the ronjonwheels.com ad in the upper right corner. i think its sits the same, the transformer front might sit a tiny bit lower because of those bulges below the fogs. i dont care tho the base looks soo much cleaner.

im in SO CAL. im good friends with the body shop owners son, so im sure he'll hook it up

cleex024

I was even thinking about maybe shaving my tl-s aspec front kit down a little just above the fog light area. Since I already have the aspec kit it would be a waste to just throw away this kit because i just bought my car (1.2k miles). I would hate to spend another 600 dollars for for customized part after already having spent 400 for mine. keep me updated.

Bgon

i cant do a photoshoot on sunday im going to a car show that this place where i get most of my shit done is hosting it and they want me to go n show the car off and work there....soon tho im gonna try to get my lowering kit next week i just got paid a few bills this week so waiting untill next weeks pay then i will

ballerjai

How much are the TL-S Aspec kits.. i've been trying to search and im getting barely anything, just a bunch of talk. It would be helpful if you guys told me how much you purchased it for.

Very nice acura tl!.

anyone that has a front and rear aspec only and not the side skirts reply to this thread. Will it look awkward and bad if you only install the front and rear and not the side? BY isntalling the fonrt and rear aspce underspoilers they will be a little lower to the ground right?? wont that make the side stand out and be abnormally higher than the front and rear to the ground? if anyone has pics please post them

just front and rear....



in my opinion, it looks perfect!

sprtstr012

the side skirts arent different at all are they....is there any difference because i cant see them.

Ahmad310

yes they are, they flair out more. its hard to see but if you look at enough pics of cars with them and w/o them you will see it.

sprtstr012

hey subbuz, what kind of fogs does ur tl have, they have a nice color blue. are they HID fog lights.....the conversion kit or did u just get HID bulbs and replace your stock fog bulbs?

yct

did you guys install it on your own or at a shop? I see a DIY for the TL, i was wondering how hard it is or how much it costs at a shop?

D R E W

The Acura dealership will charge $472 just to install the ASPEC kit. Totally RIP OFF! Do it yourself or go to a reputable shop that will do it for less.

Hey whats up heres some pix of my baby before i put the 20s on and then wit my 20s....enjoy.....

Rafiton

Is only me, but i think it looks better on the WDP than the NBP?

SixSpeed07

Maybe if it was a few shades darker to pull in the grill and tail lights. Still looks good to me, haven't seen many KBP with those rims here.

Rick_TL-S

Ahmad, your TL is sick, mate!

Ahmad310

Thanks Rick, I'm happy with the way it turned out, although the new finish ronjon came out with for the legends recently i think would have been pretty hot on her!! Now if i can just resist the urge to spend money on engine mods!
