My 2004 RRP TL alongside my Integra. Freshly washed with new ideas.

OK so after careful consideration I've decided to keep my TL recently instead of selling it. I've been re-enthused by the car and realized I actually do have a rare package. It's an 04 with the tech package, Brembo brakes and six speed manual. Just the other day I was cruising with some other 3G TL's down the highway and mine was the only manual/Brembo brake combo. I did have the car already lowered on coilovers and a set of Enkei PF01's on it but sold those off when I turned it back to stock prepping it for sale. Now starting back at ground zero with a fresh outlook I plan to do the following for just a simple clean build..

* Tinted windows
* A-Spec kit
* OEM trunk lid flush mount spoiler
* TL type S OEM wheels
* 07-08 fog light housings
* 07-08 fog lights
* 07-08 LED turn signal mirrors
* LED lighting for all interior bulbs etc.
* A quality short ram intake
* S2000 CR shift knob
* FF coilovers

And I'm sure there are some other things along the way that will come to mind. Keeping it simple and clean though. Thanks for any direction on parts and procedures from anyone knowledgeable.

MY TL formerly looked like this before I sold the parts and made it stock again.


Today I washed, waxed and thoroughly cleaned my RRP TL. Had to sneak a few shots of my Integra in there as well as well. Any readers of Honda-tuning magazine might recognize my Integra from the June issue of last year as it was featured in the article beginning on page 72. Forum name 95jdmdc4 on other major sites such as Honda-tech, NWP4life etc. Anyways onto some current pictures.

Car looks clean! But I gotta say, it looks muchhhh better without the bra (last pic)
Let's see what you can come up with since you're back to stock now!

Awesome garage!

If I were you, I would keep the TL simple. I like the 04-06 stockies more than the Type-S wheels. You could always go for a set of A-Specs. Also, if you get the 07-08 mirrors, you'll have to have them repainted because RRP wasn't available for the 07-08 TLs.

The Teggy is clean as fawk so I can tell you know what you're doing, but you have a fairly uncommon TL. I would keep it that way, aka no 07-08 parts, and add the A-Spec kit and drop it. Simple and classy

Thanks man! Yeah at first I didn't like the bra but it's grown on me. I take it off sometimes and rock it at other times. Of course it comes off when the car is washed too.

Thanks for the compliments, I appreciate that. Yeah it sucks the 07-08 color isn't the same as the 04-06 rrp so I've already considered the paint work. That one is still up in the air. I feel like the front end is begging for fog lights so those will most definitely come along with the A-spec kit and drop..again, lol.

That integra is clean, I really like the stance. I agree with the above posters just stick with and a spec kit not 07-08 parts.

love your teggy. always wanted one. my friend has a ITR conversion himself that he's been wire tucking and swapping a k24 into. when it had the b18 i used to drive it a lot and loved it just as much as my s4. i wish we could get the fancy road race style short throw they make for teggy's though

Wow dude, that is one clean '04! Looks like your mod list will give this a whole new, updated look. What coilovers did you have before? I had Tein on mine, but I'm looking to get Meagan Racing or the FF. I'd like to know what your opinions are once you get the FF installed.

Wow your 04 is cleaner than my 08 hehe. I miss my ITR a lot, so I'm jealous of your setup. Do you have any links to the Honda Tuning feature?

that is a very rare TL you have there, and will be nicely done when you're done with it.

as far as the Teg, I hate you.... no but seriously I remember drooling over that feature quite a lot when that issue arrived at my door. it's very cleanly done and you should be quite proud of it. idk what it is, but there will always be something about the 92-00 Civics and the 90-01 Tegs that will always hold a special place in my heart lol

Amazing! MF10L's have always been one of my favorite wheels for the Integra. I wish Mugen made the bronze MF10's in 18"....I'd love to see how they'd look on a TL.

Yes those pictures are from Summer Import Alliance 2011. I'm itching for the A-spec kit on my TL and then I'll really like it more.
