I want to get a body kit for my 09 TL, is there any aftermarket body kits, because the dealer one is too expensive

The big kicker is that you won't be saving money with a body kit over the stock lip kit because the stock lip kit comes pre-painted to match the color. A body kit, on the other hand, must incur labor costs to be fitted correctly (and perhaps repaired depending on the shipping) and then painted. And it's not like the paint on these Acura's is cheap, they're all three-stage processes which I can assure you will cost more just to paint the front and rear bumper than the entire lip kit for the TL costs anyway.
If you think using a cheaper painter is going to cut your costs, you're also fooling yourself because I guarantee that paint will not last in terms of future luster and ability to resist road debris chipping it.
Also, an aftermarket front bumper will likely not have the correct provisions for the fog lights and turn signal lights. Any provisions at all will look cheap and frail at best.
I have witnessed RonJons kits and believe they are good quality (but the prices are astounding) and the old addage "you get what you paid for" definitely rings true.
I believe many would scold you for putting a $800 kit (with shipping) on a $40,000+ car.
