I'm interested in a roof spoiler but don't know how it will look without the window visors.
Thanks, it's the only pictures I have right now. If it's not raining here tomorrow I'll try and get some more. It looks great without the window visors, I'm still trying to decide if I want window visors or not.

nice looking rear seat, I like the color combo. BTW aren't you the who wrote all of the DIY to convert 2nd gen TL from AT to MT?
Thanks and no that was another member fsttyms1 we have the same color car except he has 3.7L 6 speed. Had I swapped my second gen to a manual I would not have gotten a third gen.

Yeah, gotta say that the 3rd Gen models.......especially in "S" trim with the factory 6 speed stick are indeed very enticing. But, personally the 2nd Gens have a timeless appearance especially when modded as yours is. It's a difficult thing to compare the car's different features, as they each are unique with their own stong points. Now I know why ya can't part with the old gal !!!
Love the 2 tone look of the interior. Think it would look fantastic with a camel interior. Where'd you take it to get it done?
Thanks I had a local interior shop do it. Any shop near you should be able to do it just price it from a couple different shops.

It's hard to compare them I like them both. Part of the reason I kept my 2nd gen tl is because it's not worth very much so I daily drive it to keep the miles off my third gen tl.
Got the brakes done today and cleaned the inside of the wheels while they were off. Didn't get any shots of the interior I'll get some Tuesday when I clean it up.

I need to repaint mine...I'm not sure I'd like the brembo or the Acura stickers. Does everything seem to be holding up ok?
Great work!
I just used vht silver caliper paint no primer and I ordered the stickers off eBay they are 4"x1". Everything is holding up fine so far but I don't drive the car everyday. I'm glad I did it the original paint was peeling bad and it bothered me everytime I looked at it. These are the stickers I used.

2nd Gen vs: 3rd Gen TL models
