New Member...My Ride
Hey everybody. I'm new to the site and just wanted to share some info/pics of my ride, and hopefully I will learn more about the TL and get more mod ideas from the acurazine community 
:
'05 Acura TL=ABP with tan(peanut-butter) interior.
Current Mods:
-Dropped on Megan coils (~24.5in. from ground to top of fenders all around)
-Stockies painted gloss black w/ red pinstripe
-Brake Calipers painted red with Acura decals
-Front grille painted gloss black
-Debadged except "A" emblem
-Trunk lip spoiler and roof spoiler
-Type-S taillights
-Tints: 5% in back..35% in front
Next mods:
Thinking about getting the A-spec kit 1st. thing next spring and possibly some aftermarket wheels (what do you guys think?).
Here are just a couple of shots of my car (will have more soon):
+/-comments welcomed!
Sun was shining directly at it.

Welcome! ABP was my first choice in color. I would probably go wheels next. Like AMUA6 said, I'm not feeling the red stripe. But you can't go wrong with an a-spec kit either. I'm trying to get it in the next couple of weeks. Good luck!

Love ABP.
I usually don't see them much, mostly RBP.

Looking good man! I'm not a fan of the "time attack" stockies though. They clash with the blue. Just my 
of course.
Like others have said, I would get the A-Spec kit asap. It truly changes the whole presence of the car

Thx..I like it too..it was between this one and a NBP with black interior.
I like them both. There's actually not much difference in the two. RBP is a little more blueish looking.
Thx. Yea I know it needed some tire shine, but then again the sun was shining directly at it.

Thx the comment. Ehh I was just experiencing to see how it would look. I don't hate it, not the greatest look, but it looks alight in person.

General concensus is saying A-spec body kit. However, I must admit that I have a mild admiration for a lowered TL without this add-on. Oddly enough, I'm not feeling the roof spoiler without the A-spec. Appears a bit out of place, but then again, I'm used to what I have on my own car. Keep up the progress. An "A" for effort!

ABP stands out way nicer, and RBP is like a darker blue.
If you think of them as both blue, I suppose they are heheh
