And a 2nd gen TL kit is not as good a business prospect as an Accord kit because a) no more 2nd gens are being made and b) way more accords out there with a higher chance of people buying aftermarket parts for them.

And the kit isn't a widebody, just a regular kit. I think it looks decent. I'll hold my full judgement till I see production pieces though.

RJ already took a huge enough risk w/ the 2nd gen CL kit. I'm sure for a lot of the fact that he drives a 2nd gen CL himself

But even w/ that, 2nd gen CL aero kit response was very slow compared to the response for the TL. Like mclaren said it's just not worth it from a business standpoint.

Word..I know I wouldn't put a big lip kit on the TL if I had the 2nd Gen CL I would of put his kit on it. The TL is a completely different car and a subtle lip kit is all it needs.

wrong again. I doubt RJ would call this a widebody when the description says it's a "Aero-kit that enhances the Accord with a more aggressive stance. Made from polyurethane, this kit consists of a full front bumper, a full rear bumper and a pair of sideskirts. All mesh and hardware to be included."

think before you speak please.

wanna be my lawyer! lol, thanksa for the clarification. ANd we put that kit on hold, its alot of hard work with my current supplier, but I'm in the process of inking a deal with a new more advanced urethane supplier. So maybe we will be on time this time around. Check out the new wheel tho, its in upcoming products now.

The center is larger than it has to be.

I love your design for the Accord coupe however.
