2012-13 Acura TL UnderBody Spoiler Kit

Does anyone have any pictures of the OEM Underbody Spoiler from Acura? I'm trying to decide between the RonJon and OEM kits.

There's a pretty easy to use Search feature on this site. You'll find a boat load of pictures. Also, Google Image Search works wonders. Goodluck!

OP, Generally speaking some of these kits look great, but make the car slower.

I recommend you spend your money on a set of lightweight wheels and sticky summer tires.

Here is a shot of the RJ kit on a 4.5 Gen 2012 TL, keep in mind, we just found out that the rear does indeed fit. So the front (witha little trim shown below) the sides (perfect fit) and the rear (perfect fit) all work on the 2012-13 TL:
















These two simple tabs need to be trimmed to make the kit work:

That actually looks pretty good on the 2012 facelift. Do you have any better shots of the rear?

The RonJon kit is sexy. The Aspec Kit from Acura kind of looks like a Snap-On kit.

Still disappointed with the factory rear bumper change for '13. The older style rear lip kit looks hot, the new one... Not so much

The front guards will definitely have to be removed.

OEM kit looks like an afterthought, front bumper looks like stick on from local speed shop and rear also, sides look good but hard to screw that one up.

Ron Jon is a lip kit and looks professional as it follows the lines of the car.

Ron Jon, any deals on a full kit for a '12?

What is the ronjon kit made of? Can you drive the front lip up onto a curb without completely destroying it?

Front lip of the RonJon kit is more durable than the OEM or any other material. Made from highly flexible impact resistant Polyurethane molded plastic. It can be twisted and bent without cracking in normal non freezing tempratures. Sides and rear are ABS plastic for structural rigitity and support since these parts are not as prone tpo damage as the front lip and require a more rigid material being how long they are.

Here's a comparo between our kit and the Acura rear (our kit is 1.5" lower than the OEM kit, a noticeable difference):









OEM rear:

Does the RonJon lip kit fit on the 2014 TL`s? I'm a new owner of a 2014 TL SH-AWD and im really loving the RonJon lip kit.
