It's been almost 7 months of having TL Aspec
I had to wait like a month to get to get everything installed.
I remember that the dealer had a problem getting aspec suspension at that time..
I am still curious if i really have the aspec suspension or not....

i say this becuz i bought the car and drove 1 month w/o aspec then got installed.
didn't feel any difference.

however i've seen ppl saying the suspension is very noticeble in handling...

I didn't notice a difference when I had it installed either. But, after I drove a loaner, and got back into my car, then I noticed a HUGE difference in the way it handles and drives. I also have the Comptech RSB though.

You can try to compare the gap between the tires and fender since I also notice the height difference compared to my friend's stock TL.

I think he's looking for any tell tale signs to look for (such as part numbers that can be seen ONLY on A-Spec components, a different colored spring, etc).....

aspec suspension kit doesn't look any differ from stock ones.. they are both black...

Simonsez - Thanks for trying to help but the color reference was just an example. Not certain why you took it literally but I will try to write this post in a tone that might ellicit the desired responses from the entire audience. The optional A-Spec component DOES have diffferent part numbers, right? Are any of those part numbers printed directly on the components themselves? Are those part number visable once installed on the car (of course you will need a flashlight to read them)? If so, where are those part numbers and where does he need to look to cross reference what he has with an A-Spec kit.

A quick search produced a thread with the part numbers in it. I believe that the part numbers are viewable without taking the wheels off.
