TL-773

I took some new pics today. The I found out the pics in my first thread came out bad because the lens was dirty. These came out much better. I still have to get some night shots.

















With the turn signal on


Don't make my nephew lay his pimp-hand down.

So clean and stealthy! I really like what you've done, especially with the tails, and on that body color. Looks great!

triton3k

so are you gonna remove the TL badge too or is it gonna stay asymmetric.

TL-773

Yeah, I'm gonna take off the TL too. It will give it a cleaner look. I'm also thinking about having the front and back Acura symbols black chromed.

TL-773

That kid is hilarious. We call him stunt man, he's fearless. Thanks for the compliment man. I really like what you did with your grill. It came out perfect.

darksom1

I'm getting ready to swap my rear emblem for a black chrome one. I gotta get someone to do it for me so it looks right. I'm leaving the front though to contrast with my grill and keep the black/chrome theme, so your choice is a good one. Make sure you post pics! You know I will...

Lights look sweet!

Great job...

3rdGenHybrid

nice....nice....ill give u 50 bucks to do mine...and ill let you wash it when your done 2...hahaha...very very custom....

loureda

looks great! I have 2007 TL grey color. Did you replace side lights and tail lights with OEM 2007 type S lights? Was it very expensive? Did you use a tint on the outside of the tail lights?

Your turning signal bulbs.. they look different.. what did you do?

3rdGenHybrid

you should smoke your rev. lights....i used tint film...looks clean when you dont see them....but it doesn't affect light at night....can't even notice it w/ the back up camera either..

TL-773

loureda - Here's the link to how I did the lights click here.

bforbrian - For the front turn signals, I mounted some LED fog lights into the headlight housing. I'll try to get some close-ups.

3rdGenHybrid - I was thinking about tinting the reverse lights. That might look clean with some black-chromed emblems.

Evader

I'm in the process of doing this. Thanks for the help you gave me man. My only issue is one of the bolts are stripped that releases the license plate frame... WTF... I bought this car with 3 miles on it! I just have to get a nut splitter or something cause the bolts are so damn small it's hard to get anything around them!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but anyone have a good theory on removing a stripped bolt? I think it's size 5mm but might be an 8 or 10.

Thanks!

robbie82

Im jealous.

3rdGenHybrid

is the nut stripped or the threads?? if it's the nut....go get valve lapping compound....and put some around the nut....then put the correct size socket on it...and it should come off....thats if its not that bad....and if it is...use vise grips....and twist it off...

Evader

It's just just the nut that's stripped. The socket and vice grips don't do a damn thing. If you're looking at with your back inside the truck it would be the top left corner, and as you know there if very little room to get inside there. I'll look for some of that compound though. Thanks for the suggestion! Now if only my wife didn't take the car out tonight! Geeez, everytime she drives it I about have a panic attack lol.

3rdGenHybrid

hahaha....go get 2 tl's....then A: you wont have to worry and B: you wont have a stripped nut hahaha
