Im thinking about doing vinyl for the chrome trim. Some people say it'll be too much and others say it'll look good so I'm undecided yet....but thanks for the comment!!

Thanks!! The drop is awesome. I'm dropped on Tein SS coilovers so I can change whether I want the ride frim or soft.

Thanks!! Yeah theres clear film on the bumper also. Thats the cool thing about having a clear bra, you cant really see it until you get up close to the car.

Thank you sir!! They're powder coated. I found a shop close by that specialize in powder coating and it was a good price so I went for it. I wanted to be a little different.

 

im going to vinyl the chrome strip that runs the length of the car in flat black just because the chrome seems out of place on my car now. Im sure what ever you decide to do will look good. So far i like the mods you have done the best out of anyones 4g on here.

 

I'm thinking of going with glossy black vinyl for the chrome trims.

I dont know about having the best 4G TL on here though lol, but thanks for that comment.

 

VERY NICE RIDE!!! i wanted to get the 4G TL but my budget allowed for a 3G (2008) my first acura and i love it! going to pay down a little and trade in about a year for a new 2012!!! the mods you have done look awesome! When i get the new ride ill be back to get a little asistance!

 

car looks sick bro, quick question..did they clear bra it right after they repainted the grill? i just had my grill painted an my front bumper re-sprayed and they told me to wait about a month or so before i get the clear bra installed?

 

Thanks!! That's what I was told at first also. They told me I would have to wait about a month before installing clear bra on the grille. But then when I went to pick up the car, it was already installed on the grille. He told me that he used some special clear coat that dries quickly and then baked the grille in the oven twice to get it dry.

 

 

^^Thanks JnC, your work on the headlights and tail lights really help transform the car.

 

If you dont mind, how much did it cost for you to get the fog light housing painted? Did they have to uninstall the front bumper to do so?

 

Just wanted to share some updated pics of the car. Since the last update, I've added the OEM Underbody Spoiler Kit, SPC Camber Kit, Ebay Roof Spoiler and I also lowered the car a little more. The front is maxed out but I can still lower the back a little more. All in all, I love how the car turned out.

I cant compete with some of the TLs in here. With some dedication, this car can be transformed into a beautiful machine. Let me know what you guys think, good or bad!! ENJOY!!!

 

looks good in my book!

 

love it, have you thought about wheel spacers?

 

Sorry but i dont like it. It looks like a black ordinary car. The features dont stand out. Its all blacked out.

 

i love ur car but there is only one thing catch my eyes is behind the logo on the grill it's still silver

 

Looks awesome man! Not over the top, but subtly different. I think you DEF need to invest in some wheels spacers though. Once thats done it ll be complete Keep it up man

 

Darth Vader called, he wants his car back

 

I like it except for the dark HPTs; they're more of a blue'ish gray and don't have the shine of the 08 type S wheels. But what I really don't like about the wheels is how overall they make your car too dark.

 

Looks good buddy. Wheels look fine to me but you should've color matched the center cap as well

 

Thanks, I have thought about them but I've heard they're bad news. Im waiting to see yours and then maybe that'll help me make my decision.

Thanks. Its actually black behind the emblem but I guess the reflection from the sun makes it look silver.

Thanks for the opinion. The wheels actually dont have any shade of blue in them. I guess its just how the pictures make them look. The wheels are actually a glossy gunmetal metallic color. The car looks much better in person. The pictures dont do it any justice. I've gotten many compliments from many people about the overall car. To each his own I guess.

Thanks, I'm eventually going to get the TL-S center caps to see how it matches the wheels. I was going to get it a while ago but I kept forgetting about it. It'll get done eventually.

 

Damn that looks great! Your drop is perfect. As long as you don't tint the tails, the dark theme works well

 

Thank you sir. Im definitely not going to tint the tails. I already had the heads and tails blacked out and smoked by JnC.

 

i agree with a few others... and i noticed this last time you posted pics

i love the car, looks great... but really not feeling the wheel paint job.. i like the HPTs, but the color looks blue-ish grey

Personally, i would go for a more gunmetal color like the 3G Type-S Wheels, or the 2010-2011 SH 18" Wheels....

 

I guess its just how the pictures make them look. But I can assure everyone, that the wheels do not have any shade of blue in them.

 

I think it looks great, the drop is perfect

 

The car looks gorgeous but to me is too low but that's just me. Have you consider putting spacers that will stand the wheels more and will look aggressive. Thank you for sharing.

 

Your car looks sic!!!! Great job on the mods so far...

 

You've now just made me realize how good the OEM Underbody Spoiler Kit looks, and how I need one Thanks!

Your car looks great!

 

The car looks hot but black is not my cup of tea, a little to much maintnance to keep her looking clean.

 

Nice car... lookin sic... Suggestion if your going for the blacked out look.. plasti dip your front and rear A black

 

Has everyone checked the color settings on their screens? The wheels look great! As does the rest of your car. Very nicely done.

 

looks so stealth. love it!

 

TL is looking real good bro if you don't mind me asking where did you get the 19" HPT from and how much did you pay I prefer those over the others a lot more, I'm thinking about purchasing a set

 

I purchased the 19" HPTs from a fellow member that had them listed in the black market. I payed $1000 and thats included the TPMS sensors.

I was thinking about getting the black chrome emblems but decided against it. I think the chrome emblems compliments the rest of the chrome on the car. The chrome that I kept helps keep the car look a little classy. I dont really wanna black out the WHOLE car.

 

your wheels need spacers - the wheels are too far in. the drop gives them negative camber and the tops lean in..making them look like htey don't stick out far enough.

other than that.. WOW. the car looks SICK!!

makes me want to sell my RL and trick a 4G TL!!

 

Looking good! How much shock travel is there w/ them all the way down like that? I was considering extending my top hats for some comfort

 

If I were to Max out my front the car would touch the ground just being parked lol looks nice and spacers are a must main reason I sold my hpt to sunkin

 

UPDATE: Just had the BBK installed a couple weeks ago with a set of 15mm spacers front and 20mm spacers rear. They look and perform a million times better than stock.

At first, I had 20mm spacers front and 25mm rear but they made the tires stick slightly too far out and I didnt like how they looked. They were also rubbing. So I switched to 15mm front and 20mm rear. To be they look perfect, not too far in but also not too far out.

I also raised the car back up for the winter season. Dont worry, its gonna get more low after the winter season. Let me know what you think, here are some pics.

 

Nice, what settings are your BBK.

 

14" drilled and slotted rotors with 6 piston front calipers and 4 piston rear calipers

 

You finally got the BBK installed. Great choice and mod. It looks good. Gotta love the stopping power.
