4g TL vs 8th gen Accord j-pipe?

Looked around a bit on here but couldn't find a straight answer. Does anyone know if the 8th gen Accord 3.5 FWD j-pipe will fit the 4g TL 3.5 FWD?

Can't seem to find anyone who has a full long tube j-pipe for the FWD TL and was hoping the Accord one would fit

I checked the website and it says it fits.. but it also says it fits the 2.4l 😅
when I spoke to them they said they didn't make one for the fwd 09 tl but when I see the pix it looks identical minus the one hanger which is turned backwards 🤷‍♂️

Was hoping someone could chime in and show proof that it works.

This guy got the UA8 FWD XLR8 J-Pipe to work on his accord with no issue, hanger was in the wrong spot. Chances are it should work with the hanger just needing to be cut off and rewelded (I Hope). If it works I'll paypal you $25 bux since I've been wondering the same and haven't bought one yet since I've been working 6 days a week.

Thats good enough for me! Just needed one person to confirm its a fit (minus hanger of course)
Ordering mine as soon as I find one in stock (XLR8 or RV6)
Thanks for sharing that post and the reply 😁

Wanna trade? Have a 4G TL j pipe on 8th gen accord. The 4g pipe presses up against the rear crossmember.

is it just barely touching it? It’s been a few years now but I’m positive I have the xlr8 j pipe and had to add a couple washer to clear that crossbeam.

No, it's pretty bad. I actually took a grinder to the cross member in an effort to make some clearance. To be clear, I'm talking about an obx 4g tl jpipe on a 8th gen accord. The obx jpipe seems to have a flex pipe in the spot with least clearance.
