Only the 3.2 TL was available in Japan, therefore the only Mugen TL parts your gonna find is for the 2G.

Ipe387tt, your TL in your avatar is smiling at me but with the front spoiler it also looks very mean and tough. I love your car and its stance. Good job!!

Now back on topic, to the OP, I would rather have the current grill on my Acura then put that ugly Mugen grill. If that doesnt tell you how ugly that grill is, nothing will. Cheers!!

I second that opinion. the 4G styling is love or hate - there is no medium balance and for sure there is something about this styling otherwise we would not be hearing it from almost every possible car magazine on this planet

That's a photochop. There is no Honda Accord/Inspire coupe in Japan. But that sure does look good.

We are working on the actual way it would mount up to the bumper. Thats the hardest part, to streamline production and make it fit like OEM. As soon as we get that going, we'll get the pics of the progress.

I'm sorry but the RonJon grille is far from ugly. It's less protrusive and more classy. However, the grille of the 4G is what is causing all of the hoopla with the car. I have grown to like the grille but only if it is entirely painted. So, I too wait for the RonJon grille to make production. I actually think that it is a nice piece.

It is less protrusive, but def not classy. It leaves a big hole in the front of the car that is recessed with just 2 simple lines and his logo.

I love the RJ wheels, but the grill is just ricey. The mugen grill occupies the space vacated by the grill without being protrusive and keeps it simple and if the horizontal bars were chromed rather then painted it would be classy.

I have a question! Do the "car magazine on this planet" have their own opinions of it or do/did they all either quote another car magazine or some idiots who say they didn't like it? These are the same idiots who would have been the first to write a article if Acura came out with a plain-jane design. I bet if you ask all those pessimists they would say the glass is half empty. Well even if I didn't like the grille I would say the other advancements MORE than make up for it. You were right about one thing, its either love it or hate it...I LOVE IT! The glass is all the way full. That's my from Balad, Iraq.

The RonJon grill is a simple grill, is a common one. Sure you can find a alike grill on the street. I do think is because the Acura grill got a lot of bad critics so that's why people want to have this grill so much. (well...me too actually...but really want to see the real one come out first)

The Mugen grill has more design, details and look aggressive. Mugen always did a good job to the Honda accessories parts. But sure they won't make one for the TL.(but who knows...if they can hear us really want to change the OEM grill and also Japan has the 09TL too...)

The Acura grill is a good looking concept feel grill. The only think I worry about this grill is...since the material of the grill can't put on the 3M, if you got rock chipS to the grill....that thing is done...

Right now seems RonJon will be the only one will have a nice looking grill to the 09TL....hope will see this thing come out soon.
