Just creating a thread to maintain tracking for mods on my recent purchase, 2007 KBP TL Type S:




Plans:

Coilovers
18x8 or 18x9 wheels (still researching what fitment I can hit with offset on a 5AT)
Badge delete
35% all-around tint
Clear the amber out of the headlights (if I muster up the fortitude to attempt it)

I'm open to any suggestions or criticism. Having come from CRSX, I know search is my friend. Pic of the recently released:




Stay tuned.

 

Welcome, and nice pick up. Looking forward to seeing where you take this!

 

Kbp ftw

 

Nice car and good luck with it! I am always envious of those who were lucky enough to find KBP.

 

Nice car! Paint the engine cover KBP too!

 

Bennett, not sure if I told you, but join our Type S Social Group from the link below my signature.

 

I also came from CRSX, welcome. Nice S

 

Thanks guys. Steven, will do. Just ordered some front bumper blugs oem paint matched to get rid of the front plate. Next will be suspension (probably). Also, if anyone in the 757 area feels like they are capable of clearing the headlights and resealing...let me know because I am not comfortable enough to get that done, yet.

 

Contact our vendors JnC or AckTL05. They both do headlights and taillights. Nice S. My favorite color

 

Had these left over from when I was going to replace them on the RSX. These will go with the wheels, once purchased:

 

Love the color What part of VA you in, I'm in Hampton.

 

I'm actually at virginia beach. Did you clear your own headlights?

 

Yeah while back ago now... I grabbed zkw-r lenses while was in there. It ain't so bad, just give yourself two days to be safe. I used blow dryer to open then some flow able silicone to help seal back up.

 

Badges removed, wheels next:

 

Welcome and congrats! There's a huge meet in January in Great Falls, VA. Here's a link:

Thanks, sir!

 

Awwww man, looks better with them :-) Congrats on the purchase KBP is a great color. I used to have an 07 KBP/taupe Type S and it was slick lookin.

 

Nice looking TL.

 

Nice looking without badging.

 

Thanks guys. I appreciate the feedback. Now to get through the holidays so I can try and save for wheels..

 

Great looking car!

 

Man, it seems like we have similar tastes on a lot of things (referring to the badging in this case).

 

Tint to be installed tomorrow. Door to be fixed today. Stupid cap fell off of the handle.

 

Sweet ride man! I used to own an 06 RSX Type S and I sold it and got an 07 KBP TL Type S. I want to do pretty much the same things you want to for your ride! I already debadged the ride as well as painted the chrome portions of the car black chrome! Good luck on your future mods!

 

You from CRSX also?

 

Changes are on the way.

 

interesting

 

 

Spoke to Marcus from HeelToeAuto.. unfortunately waiting on the hub rings and spacers..

 

What made you choose those coils over other alternatives?

 

Decent cost, decent reviews? That sounds like a question where you know something is wrong with them 0.0

Now my question is... what do YOU know about them CLtotheTL32? >.<

 

Tinted a few days ago. The after image is recent after wash, clay and wax.

 

looks good

 

Very nice!
