NICE COMBO man !!! I didn't know you created this thread when you PM'ed me about the A-spec kit, but good job on the upgrade. Glad I could help with the info I gave you in the PM. If you need some tips on installing the A-spec kit, you can PM me. Those gold rims on your RSX would look sweet on the WDP.

I was thinking of trading my 04 TL/NBP/AT in for this combo color. I decided not to after some moron hit the front of my car & got a new paint job on my entire front end. So I bought the A-spec body kit w/ decklid spoiler from the same spot you got yours (hondacurworld.com) & installed it last week. Also, I got the AEM CAI & Comptech rear swaybar from Excelerate & installed it yesterday.

Enjoy your new ride!

I concur. Given JUST those two pictures, I'd take the RSX hands down. But I'm sure you'll bring the TL up to par. What kind of performance mods did you have on your RSX? And like others said, what are your plans for the TL?

Thanks for all the compliments.. I have the apsec kit on order and the lip spoiler. As far as the hardwire for the radar Its sitting in my drawer. I took that out when I sold the RSX. Just gotta find the instructions on how to take off the panels. Any help would be appreciated!

I appreciate the link man.. Thank god you showed me before the GB ended. I will definately be Pming you about the install. Did you do the install yourself? I'm assuming you need to take the front bumper off, what about the Rear?

NP man

I was tripping when you sent me the PM asking about a price quote... lol. It's all good that you got the kit in time.

I installed the entire bodykit & decklid spoiler myself. It helps to have a second person to help w/ the install of the front spoiler & sideskirts, but I managed to do it myself. You don't need to remove the front bumper. Just the rear bumper which is simple by following the directions. Don't forget to download the instructions from Hondacuraworld.com cuz they don't come with the kit.

Shoot me a PM when your ready. It helps to jack-up the car when installing the front or rear spoiler. It gives you room to drill & screw. Remove your rear tires when installing the rear spoiler & jack-up your front end to steer the wheels side to side when installing the front spoiler. Don't forget to use jack stands!
