I think so as well,thanks.

Winter car is a 2001 Olds Aurora. hahaha.

 

I think that MDX grill Conv is going to be crazy

Very clean. Love it

 

Lol as long as it gets the job done its whatever, cus you have a sick tl and that's what counts.

 

wish i could put my car away :P

 

Appreciate the kind words,it was a lot of work and a good winter project.Everyone who has seen it loves it and it usually gets a lot of attention at the dealership.


Haha,yeah,thank you my friend, the Olds is good to me.


Looks like i will be storing the Tl for the forseeable future winters.My wife has a 2010 Sentra and she told me that when the Olds die i can have the Sentra and she will take a new car.
Subtle huh,lol.

 

Ever since I saw the MFX grill I was thinking of doing the Conv. I might adopt that

 

Please do,i think it would look outstanding on a black Tl such as yours.It is a unique one of a kind build that will require patience.As much as i enjoyed the project the only time i would do another is if mine should get damaged.

 

Happy hibernation to your TL KK! You have so much patience to not drive your car for the whole winter!

Other then the AZ member with the TSX, you have a one off grille - and kudos to a excellent job with the project!

 

Sick car! I wanna know how I can fine someone to make a head rest like that. Great idea and well done!

 

Thank you LP,looking forward to spring already lol.



Thank you Ross,looking forward to seeing the areo kit installed on your Tl, the kits look amazing on black .

I am sure that you can get an upholstery shop to do the bands for you,i made them removable.

 

Thanks. Mind if I ask how wide you made the bands? Looks like a good fit. I wouldn't want to make it too wide / short. Yours look like a perfect fit!

 

I don't mind at all,the headrest are tapered so i made them concave,4" at the middle 5 1/2" at the two ends and 26" in length.Sew velcro on either end,wrap around the headrest and attach together,with the joint at the bottom.

 

With 3 1/2 months left to bring out the car i have just started thinking about mods for the New Year,i know that there will be at least two coming.

I have to admit that getting a new car has crossed my mind more than once, still love the Tl but that CTS V or C63 AMG is always on my mind.

 

Nice ride, KarKraze!!

 

Amazing car KK.

How did you do the Chrome beneath the trunk?

Also, any recommended place in the GTA to get an aero kit installed.

 

Thank you Buddy, your new pics are amazing, as a package your car looks great.



Thanks Cap, the piece beneath the trunk is part of the midnight chrome package and is a dealer installed option.

I had my aero package installed at the dealer for warranty purposes and I purchased it there as well, some dealers will flex on the price, mine was done at Acura 2000
There are some online vendors here on Azine, check the Off topic section under vendor parts for sale
Make sure to shop around for the best deal possible, there is a mechanic that works at Mississauga Honda that has a thread on the regions forum who has installed several kits and his customers seems to be pleased.

If you can't find it I will look for it and post the link for you.

 

let me know if you decide to goto the dark side, and sell off any parts :p LOL

 

Cap, here is the link to the mechanic at Mississauga Honda

He installed the H&R springs for a friend of mine on a 2012 TL ,no complains.


Lol,dark side huh!!

 

Hi there.I'm fairly new to the forum.Had the chance to go through your progression thread and I am learning alot.I. Have a TL almost exactly like yours .I did some switchback mods but didn't like the brightness of the led's.I waiting for a chance to get the bluish shade bulb(60smd like you had).

Btw,can't help getting excited when I saw your plates....Acura 2000.I'm in Brampton Northwest area.Would really love to see your TL.I always love cleanly modified cars with class.Hope to hear from you.

Have Happy New Year!!!

 

Hi, KK!

 

Happy New Year to you as well, appreciate the feedback

Check your inbox, I sent you a pm.

Hi Lawn Pro. Love your new truck, the LTZ package is sweet and I am amazed at how comfortable the new trucks are

 

where u get the chrome grill from and how much$$ ?

 

where you get the chrome grill from and how much $$ ? dont mind me asking

 

where u get the chrome grill from?

 

It is part of the midnight chrome package offered by the dealership,can't comment on the price since it was part of the deal when i purchased the vehicle.

I have seen them on Ebay,around $250/300.

I no longer have that grille on my car.

 

You thinking of bringing your car out? Haha its been such a mild winter, my winter tires are dying because its so warm out!

 

Hey bud,been a long time ,Happy New Year.

Probably one of the mildest winters i have seen,as tempting as it is,she is all covered up and tucked away haha.

Few new mods planned for this year,including a one of custom made something lolz.

 

One of two planned mods arrived today,waited a long time for this but from a quick peek i think this will look amazing,which make it well worth the wait.

 

You act like it's some pussy in that box.

Post a pic!

 

Why? don't you know what a pussy look like?

 

Just for you Vivmike



Enjoy.

 

^^ LOL

real talk though.... im stumped as to what this could be this time.... BBK?? a bit of a stretch judging by the thickness of the box though... hmmm

 

Another exhaust system.

 

looks like it can be a front grill.. thats the exact same size my grill came in.. is that a cmod grill?

 

lol! real cute.

 

Just, messing with you dude.The way i see it we are all in the same boat,that is, we all drive Acura's and we have a passion for modding cars.Sure,we all have different tastes and may not always agree on the mods we do but if we did, everything would be vanilla,boring if you ask me.Btw your Megan exhaust must be a blast,i have heard them of two other cars and they sound good.


No way,love the CT engineering axle back too much too get another brand.


Haha,no BBK.Whenever my left hand goes to write the cheque,my right hand takes the pen away.


The goes to you,however it is not the C-mod grille,i purchased Nexon's 09/12 combo grille that he fabricated for his car.
Tbh,i took a look at it and packed it up since install will be done in the spring.Too cold atm and the car is put away so there is no point.There are many pics of it in his thread so almost everyone will know what it looks like.

 

Car looks great man! Keep up the good work!

 

I drove it up to LA from San Diego yesterday...it got a tad bit louder. It was very quite when I first had it installed. My next purchase will be a J pipe. Would love to get a high flow cat but dont think it would pass smog here in Cali.

Your car is looking great man, and I'm glad you have an old daily driver. Mine in 05 cavalier 4 door. Lol.

 

Appreciate the feedback,thank you.



Usually an exhaust system tone down as it is broken in,perhaps you should check the welds to make sure one did not break under stress etc.

You will love the j pipe,it open's up the exhaust and change the tone a bit,the car def feels quicker with it as well.

 

Wow - that's some awesome news KK on buying Nexson's custom grille, it's going to look sweet on your car for sure!!!!

You will have a true one off grille!...........
