Cool New member

Hi Guys,

i just brought an Acura TL 2013 Elite and i decide to join your forums to know better my new car.

Here's some picture of my car.

Can anyone tell my why front isn't silver and also do i have an oem body kit or is a custom one?

thanks,

I think you'll get to know your car better, I know I did. But, if you read about torque converters failing, or propeller shaft failure, oh, and oil-burning, if you own an SH-AWD, you might get a bit concerned. When you think about it, it's cheaper to change the propeller shaft, than it is to pay the sales tax on a new car - for me it is. The TC shouldn't kill you, either, I think. And, oil-burning, don't go crazy with the throttle, and keep an eye on your oil level.

But, I'm guessing that there's a positive correlation between aggressive driving, and oil-burning, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Also, I think that csmeance drains three quarts of transmission fluid after a certain amount of oil changes (maybe he'll see this, and fill you in - he knows a ton about these cars), which I think is brilliant, now knowing more about Honda's transmissions. Oh, he replaces that fluid, after he drains it, lol.

Nice car, thanks for sharing!

Looks like the car has a oem body kit on it.
The grill is just painted black.
