Hey guys. I've looked through most of the photograph gallery and I cant find anything. Anyone have nice pictures of Anthracite metallic with a Type-s rear bumper installed? I would really appreciate it.

This was when I had ATLP exhaust, rockin Type-S now. I figured it would help though.

This is the TL-S A-Spec lip on a cut-out 04-06 bumper.

Also if you plan to get a 07-08 TL-S A-Spec lip, get one with a black gasket (dark OEM colors). The black gasket looks better on AM vs. the light gray.

You have to repaint the lip too, since it doesn't come in AM from the factory.

Thanks a ton Powerflow! Yeah, I know i have to get it painted. I heard around 300$ just to get it painted. Think that's too much or a good price? I'm also thinking about getting the type-s exhaust and thats why I wanted to see pics before anything lol.

May I ask why you decided to leave ATLP to go with the OEM Type-s?

Anyway, what gaskets are you talking about, the gaskets right above the tips?

I had to quiet down my car for other reasons. I loved the ATLP, wasn't overly loud at all since I installed a high flow mid muffler on it. I just wanted a more OEM sounding exhaust, I kinda changed direction with my mods.

There is a gasket along the top edge of the lip, where it meet the bumper. It has to be masked, or removed and re-applied, or just removed all together. I removed mine, it didn't look right cause it was the light gray color. I had a 07-08 lip on the front with a black gasket, looks 10 times better in black so I just left it off on the rear.

I painted my lip myself. 300 bucks is fair if it's good work, proper color match, with high quality paint, 2+ coats of clear.

^^^ Damn that AM is SICK!! good job on the paint job, I am trying to get my hands on just a type-s rear, but I got to sell my base bumper first.
