On the 2009-2011, I can see how some would have swapped them but even then, I didn't mind the original shield despite all the bashing. --- Hi weather, I got your point. To be honest with you, I forgot how my car looks likesJ I will take your word for it and just wait for now. When I get my car and aero kit, I will see how at looks and take it from there. I do not think that it will be a big deal to install this grill later. Having seen all these beautiful photos I feel like kicking my old Caddi every time I see it L

So, Questions after one week of ownership.

1. What do you recommend for the dashboard, armor all doesn't seem like a good idea since it appears to be porous.

2. Best OEM and Aftermarket parts warehouses, I am looking at changing some lighting on the interior and exterior.

3. Good walk through for the Blue Tooth, my phone had no problem with the connection (Droid X) but my wifes (Droid 2) couldn't be found.

4. Driver 1 and 2, outside of steering and seat position, is it possible to associated blue tooth and radio settings as well?

Once I get it tinted and get a nice day I will take the Cannon out and get some shots. Loving the car!

aerospace 303...the best stuff for acura dashes. not oily, not super duper shiny, will not dry out dash. armor all stuff=

2. Best OEM and Aftermarket parts warehouses, I am looking at changing some lighting on the interior and exterior.

lighting...v-leds.com for interior and exterior bulb swaps, reverse lighting...jlclightings.com for the CREE LED reverse bulbs (stupid bright, but also functional)

other places for bolt on toys for the car: excelerate performance, heel toe automotive, OEM stuff: you can go through one of the vendors here: acktl05 OR one of the many internet based acura parts dealers (they are really dealers)

3. Good walk through for the Blue Tooth, my phone had no problem with the connection (Droid X) but my wifes (Droid 2) couldn't be found.

check for compatibility of the phone to the vehicle.

4. Driver 1 and 2, outside of steering and seat position, is it possible to associated blue tooth and radio settings as well?

hmmm...bluetooth will pick up whatever phone is in the area of the car. radio settings...i think that is sync'd with the driver 1 and 2 settings (not certain) b/ce my MDX when i first got it, wouldn't hold the presets initially and i'm pretty sure it had to do with which set of keys i was using. since i settled on one set, its been fine.

Congrats on the pick up. You only have 5 questions? You're pretty good.

But seriously, on the phone/HFL issue, you might have already done this, but make sure your wife's phone BT connection is set to "discover" so the HFL knows it's there and can "talk" to it.

Finally after 5 weeks, I picked up my 2012 TL SH-AWD Elite (Graphite Luster Metallic). It will take another six weeks or more for aero kit to arrive. Unfortunately it is dark and raining outside for a nice pic. Here is the first shot made in a garage using a cell. Will post more later (weather permitting)
