Actually, the change in wiring would probably be the addition of 2 extra ballasts for the 2 extra HID's in place of the old fogs.

Thanks to all for their nice comments! I would have gotten more pics of the interiors, but there was always someone walking around the cars and sitting in the driver's seat (dammit)!

Glad you all enjoyed them! (BTW: Pics taken with a Canon PowerShot A510)

On the other hand, the Aspec Type S is a beauty!

Yes, I love the new instrument panel too! I don't know why Acura "flipped" the trip computer with the gear display? Kinda strange, if you ask me. Personally, I think that the 'gear display' should ALWAYS be in the center - so it is easy to look at.

....haha i think i've got it figured out now...correct me if i'm wrong.

Type S comes with the black housing headlamps and red/black chrome taillights.

The crazy looking add on pieces is the new A-spec kit which is optional.

...with that being said...i wonder if that 07 front add on aspec lip will fit the 04-06 front bumper or will you have to order the type S bumper to make it work.

Acura had a really nice set-up! The new '07 TL was "sharp" - I love the new interior color: "Taupe" - very pretty! The White Pearl is a beautiful color!

Hope you enjoy these pics of the '07 TL and TL-S (A-Spec)






on the white tl and a little bit on the silver tl you can see the "unmatching" bumpers

Sometimes less is more, plus it takes away the chrome accents by the fogs.

From what I could see, the leather looks "unchanged" - its the perforated leather, but is also available in "Taupe".

I wish Acura would offer "British Tan" color - which would go really nice with green, blue, white or red exterior!

Actually, I would LOVE it, if Acura used "Pebbled Leather" - it has a very nice rich texture......Oh, that would be very nice! OR, (hint-hint)

Or even "natuzzi" leather, from Italia!

looks like there might be an additional seam, to minimize any stretching.

I LOVE the side profile and the rear of the TLS-ASpec. The front, unfortunately does nothing for me. I have an '06 A-Spec, to put things in perspective. The ONLY thing i like about the front of this car is the grille. I hate how they put the foglights down in the air scoops and added Daytime Running Lights. And the front body is very rice-boy like, in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, i like the TLS, but the front and the Red-LEDs and new gauges make me happy to have an '06.

I wish that the 07 TL-S chrome grill fit the 04-06 TL.

No you don't....I saw it @ the dealer....looks/feels sooooo cheap.

I thought the same before I actually saw it too...heh

The exhaust tips are insanely nice though....I'd kill for a rear conversion somehow...

I would have to agree with Sybaek3. I just bought a carbon gray 07 TL (non type S) and although the foglights look nice, the 07 front spoiler is ugly - the 06 definitely looked better. The 07's rear lip spoiler however looks robust and sporty. I had a hard time picking between the 06 and 07 ($3000 difference), but one of the reasons I opted for the 07 was because the side turn signal mirrors look alot nicer (well, also because of the realtime traffic, the wheels, and rear lights). Not many ppl make note of them, but they are entirely different from the 04-06, and gives it a much more classy/refined look in my opinion.

I also am really not sure about the 07 front spoiler, i like the 06 much more, the rear and sides look good, but i wonder how the kit would look without the front, i am a bit bummed that they redesigned the front spoiler so much....i might stay stock for now until i decide, what do you guys think about the sides and the rear only on a silver TLS?

Yea... I'm not feeling the '07 A-Spec front lip either. If I had an '07, I would go with Ron Jon's lip kit.



Details here: It's Time: RonJon 2007 TL-S Lip kit, Please participate...
