Looks good just be careful bumping with your rims over time they sell a brush on brake caliper kit for like $15 AutoZone that sets well...mix a paint with a hardener sets like a glaze almost looks like powder coat...

they are a bitch to get off, so why put them back on!?
the wheels and wheel lugs hold the rotor in place.
To save anyone some time or to Piss someone off that already threw there screws away like Justin...all you need is an impact screwdriver that you hit with a hammer to loosen or tighten...comes with few good sized tips again AutoZone $10~$15 ...

The lip looks great, takes the Type-S A-Spec to a whole new level of aggressive.

The lip is from a wrx 07. I got the idea from another member on this forum. He has a 07 TL-S, nice looking ride for sure.

Thank you guys for the kind comments

acurajj i want your ATLP LOL

I like the green. I was thinking about doing green on my Brembos before I chose blue.

Just noticed your slightly painted side mirror, neato. Subtle.

Not feeling the white emblems on the rims, but I REALLY like the front of the car. Great job with the Leds/side markers in the headlight housing. Also like the black acura on the lower body kit

Dude, I've got to tell you-a long time ago, I considered getting a Carbon Fiber hood. I didn't because I didn't think it would look good on a silver TL.



You.....have changed that opinion.


Congrats.
