The Headlight Washers are standard for the SH-AWD model.
Canada and China's TL have it, I don't understand why the US TL don't have it~(even not on the options list)

Anyone of you in the US ask the dealer?

Is that a gap between the hood and the grille again?????
Nothing on the middle of the grille looks ok too~!!

And my opinion is I think the White TL with the headlight painted black are the best color combo, such as Blackura's TL. Also Buckvegas TL, Grey TL with painted black headlight, looks sick also!

If I can and also have some extra time, I will paint my headlight too~^__^

This is the first time I've seen it and the dealer never brought it up. I wonder how much $$$ a TL would cost in China!

The TL in China are little expensive then the US and Canadian version. Also the car's sizes, parts and options are different than the US and CDN version.

-Such as they don't have the SH-AWD model but have a model call "Luxury Sport" model, this model have 2 front sensors under the headlight corner(include the headlight washer) and the 10 spoke 18" rims.
-They have 40GB(!!!!!) harddrive.
-I'm not sure about this one but if I'm correct, I believe the Navi system can play DVD too.

I'm new here and was thinking of getting a TL. Just have a question though. Is there a thread on here that shows how to remove the stock grill? Love the look of the car but would have to replace the grill asap if I were to purchase one.Thanks

Yes Yes~!!!haha... Is a MUGEN badge! I don't know will that badge look good to anybody so I didn't specific to mention it.

To me I think the badge looks quite ok after I put it on that spot~ Look a little bit more sportier. Becasue the badge said "Mugen Equipped", a friend of my friend ask me "did I install any performance parts of Mugen" after he saw the badge.(I wish they have it for the 4G)lol

Interesting. I guess I was trying to make the point that you have to be ultra rich to own one in China given their salary structure.

People in China only think Benz, BMW and Lexus are top luxury vehicle, Acura is nothing in China...they don't even know anything when 4G TL release at the market......
Anyway....people in China, their living style is day and night; if you are rich, then you'll be super rich; if not, then ride a bike~lol

oppss.....a little off topic....

I could not truly appreciate the extent of damage the power plenum thing has caused Acura until I saw this thread.

ieh's car=sex That grille completely changes the character of the whole car.

Acura should IMMEDIATELY contact Ronjon to allow distribution of the grille through the dealer network so that folks have an option.

Ronjon is the man!

WOW, I'm in love again

Your cars look fricking amazing fellas

I definitely think it looks better than our 3G's (first time in my life I ever admitted to that)

In two weeks (when I am past the probation on this board), I'll post pics of my new TL with the blacked grill. Getting that done was part of the deal for buying the car. They did a good job.

Thanks, headlights were done by JnC, he is a member here on acurazine, and will do various headlight customizing. The side mirror turn signals have a tint overlay installed over them, available from another site vendor bluebatmobile, or bluebatmobile.net

It need some adjustment to the grille.
Check carefully, the top of the grille is not balance, also the center bar is off position, that makes the "A" not at the center position, right???

JR34 - As you know very well this is not an exact plug and play piece. We worked hard to get it to this stage! Everytime you move it you run the risk of scratching the paint. It also depends a lot on the angle you're looking at it or taking the picture from.... We'll try to tweak it a little on Monday.

Thanks for posting the pic; I've been wondering what the RJ grill on a palladium metallic would look like. The RJ grill definitely gives the TL a different look compared to the OEM grill.

Would you happen to have a pic of a 4G palladium metallic with only the part of the chrome that comes up to the hood painted?
