Let the mods begin!

I know this is probably completely over the top.......I debadged the "TL" from the rear. Now debating whether or not to remove the "SH-AWD" as well and just leave the Acura logo.

On a more serious note I did drop off the car this morning to get 35% tint all around. Now I have to sit here at work all day waiting to pick it up.

I realize compared to most of you on the board that is not much in the way of mods but it's at least a start. I want to do the wheels and tires next but that will take some time, not sure what I want yet.

And finally I already know that "THIS THREAD IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT PICS!" I will take some after picking up the car tonight.

When you're ready for some suspension, brake or engine mods let us know.

That is a given, will be installing Tein coilovers with 20's....at this point I am just not sure what I want wheel wise. I've looked at hundreds of pics on here and have a lot of good ideas....yet to decide.

I am going to go ahead and remove the "SH-AWD" from the rear tomorrow, I like the clean simple look. Other mods I am contemplating include roof spoiler, quad tips, K&N air filter, grill replacement, and body kit. I don't really believe their is enough additional performance to be unlocked for the cost utilizing J pipes, exhaust, intakes, etc. If I truly want to go fast I just hop on my ZX-12R lol.

I did zero mods to my 08 and 11 TL's. Both however were base FWD's. This SH-AWD 6 MT is a completely different animal, honestly drives like a totally different car. As a result I can see this in my garage for a long time, so it is going to be quite fun to mod it and create exactly what I want. I have a feeling my wallet may not be too thrilled.

The tint is awesome, only regret is I waited two months to get it done.

I do have a question....does anyone know if the RonJon grills and aero kits fit 2013's? The website says 09-11. I REALLY like the A-Bar grill! Now that the mods have begun the floodgates are open!

Can't see your pictures.


Host them with a free site like PhotoBucket.com. Then copy the IMG code from each picture and paste it on AcuraZine.

Damnit, I am about as tech savvy as a rock. Can someone give me a quick answer on how to get these photobucket pics to show up?

Ziffle, if you're on the contact sheet page (with a lot of images on a single page), hover your mouse in the upper right hand corner of the image. You'll see "Get Links"---it's the 5th option down.

Click on that and then a pop-up box appears. The last option is the IMG code. Just click your mouse in that box and it will automatically copy that IMG code onto your computer's clipboard.

Then, paste that code into AcuraZine.
