It's coming along.. what do you think so far?
i've recently did some installs of some mods and i think my car is headed in the right direction.. i think it looks pretty good for what it is right now... it's a work in progress always, but i enjoy it.
Next 3 mods i NEED to do: Mid Muffler Delete, Drop it 1.5in, Get a rear Typs S lip to complete the exhaust look i'm going for.
I hacked the stock muffler pipes/tips off and clamped on the Quad tips to fill out the Type S bumper i finally got painted. Duraflex Roof Wing Spoiler went on easy. I de-badged the car as well.
As for the interior... how do you guys like my black leather seats in my camel/black interior?
Also, added the Acura steering wheel cover, the wheel is thicker now and better to grab.
Onto the pics... what do you guys think, i know it's no show car, or somethin sittin on 19's like alot of the cars i enjoy looking at on here, but for what it is so far.... not bad?
(*anyone in NJ can tell me where they got their mid muffler delete done at? having a hard time finding a place)

I like the roof spoiler and the seats. I'm not sure about the wheel cover though.

i will take a pic tomorrow from atop of the exhaust and how far it sticks out from the bumper, when looking down it only sticks out a little bit, but being that the bumper is angled it's creating the illusion that they are sticking out further than they really are,, an aspec rear will fix this i'm sure, if not, i will shorten the tips then.

But since im here again....
What do i think so far.
I think the bad are:
1. Steering wheel cover is super tacky.
2. Not sure as to what is going on with the seat covers. Look like spray painted foam inserts.
3. Exhaust doesn't fit and looks crooked.
4. Rear bumper isn't finished
5. Air Freshener on shifter boot is going to ruin the leather.
I think the good are:
1. Tails
2. Roof Spoiler
3. Type-S side markers.
Don't come to a forum asking what people think unless you want to hear the truth. If you want everyone to like what you do to your car go to cardomain. It seems to be full of people who seem to love every mod under the sun. I am not one of those people.

True it is your car, which means you could cover it in NOS stickers and neon lights if you wanted to.
But when you come to a forum and make a thread titled:
"It's coming along.. what do you think so far?"
"You" being the other members of this forum. I happen to be one of those members, and I let you know what I think so far.
If you don't want to hear what people think about your car, don't ask for opinions.

Looks good, Its always good to see members enjoying their TL's. As long as you are having fun and like your mods its all that counts. My only advise would be... Be careful of the steering wheel cover. My wife had one on her car and one day I had to make a manuver in it and the cover slid the wheel stayed straight.

ya know what's funny,, my inspiration was a TL i saw on here a few years ago,, a black one with my exact setup now,, same tips,, they were as big and "stuck out" just as far.., same bumper, it just had no roof wing,, and everyone practically drooled over this thing, i do the same thing almost and people just tear it apart. lol i'm seriously starting to beleive now that some people on here only thinks your car looks good if it's Black or White, ABP is hated
lol and the fact that i live in NJ are working against me i know, but what i can do? hahah ..... i have to have a laugh if i got upset at all the negative that people write to me in posts about MY car, it would just eat me up inside. i love my car, i love the unique and not cookie cutter color of it, the mods i have done to it, it gets compliments all the time in person, people always want to drive it,, so i'm not gonna let some few random people scattered thruout the USA try and bring me down, sorry!

The aspec rear may fix how the exhuast looks, but you need to take off the steering wheel cover and seat covers. looks tacky IMO. Its an ACURA.

the seat covers look really bad, and i havnt been around much lately, but someone knocked off ATLP design for the roof spoiler or how did that work?
anyway, once you get suspension, im sure the exterior of the car will look better.

Gad dayum..so many uptight people on this site nowadays. If you don't want criticism, don't post pics and ask people what they think..simple as that. If your car makes you happy, you shouldn't need anyone else's opinion.
However OP, since you did post pics and asked what we think..
The only things you got going for you are 6MT, front lip, tails, and roof spoiler.
This is an Acura, doesn't need tacky seat covers nor should you have them on in the first place.
Steering wheel covers..well my fiancee loves hers but never on my car.
Type-S tips? Shoulda just used the whole exhaust if you already had access to it. They're not hung right and look completely outta place...
Or..shoulda just saved for ATLP Quads..plenty of people parting with those and they'd actually look good

Well I threw a life line out there but the op wanted to continue now with attitude. Nobody said anything about the color. I think the color is hot, however the type-s does not come in that color. you said you want to know what I think so now here goes.
Steering wheel cover, seat covers, and exhaust are a complete fail.
Love the color and the roof spoiler.
On another note "Louis" I don't appreciate the east coast comment.

Sounds like a good idea, I am going to sell my Acura, buy a piece of crap old ford pickup and move down the block from you. Can i hang out with the beard crew? Do I need to buy a house, or is it a trailer park?

And now it gets personal..
This is when people just need to just shut their pie holes.
There are countless people on this site from the East with ricey or just plain ugly TLs..that's all he was saying by East Coast. Hell there are ugly/ricey TLs everywhere. If yours isn't ricey or ugly, then move one..let it go.
There's no need to get on anyone about their choice of ride after their TL..has nothing to do with ANYTHING..period. So what he drives a Ford..who gives a shit. At least it's not some homo Miata or some gay shit we'd all get a laugh at.
You guys need to chill the fuck out and move on. No one was attacking anyone else personally so there's no need to take it there. If you can't handle others' opinions, don't be on a PUBLIC forum where people can say whatever the fuck they want. Just don't make it PERSONAL.
Damn..there are a bunch of teenage girls on this site just wanting to pick fights over anything..LOLZ

there is 1/2 inch thick foam padding all thruout the seat covers,, the black outter material is not touching any leather, so not worried about any leather being ruined.

Well I have recently posted my own car pic and it was full of opinions. You can't get mad when you ask for an opinion unless you want to title you post with a question then in parenthesis put rhetorical. Your car looks good and I'm sure that in person it looks better then the photos. I'm just not into seat covers and steering wheel covers. That’s just my

OP the color of your car has nothing to do with it I assure you. My car is fucking Green, the oddest of all TL colors. If people don't like it, they can go screw. It has more to do with the fact that most of the mods you've done look like they were bought a Pep Boys. Bear in mind I'm not trying to be a dick here, I'm just giving you my opinion. The seat covers, wheel cover and tips all make the car look cheap and covering that Camel interior is BLASPHEMY, you should be ashamed.
Anyway, like a couple other members said, it's your car and if you like it that's all that matters. But don't post pics on a public form if you can't take the heat.
