Wassup guys I’m new to the forums. I own a 2006 Acura TL completely stock and I’m looking to change that a bit. My goal for next year is to modify my car to my liking and although I know it is all personal preference at the end of the day I’d love some suggestions. Unfortunately I was hit on my driver side door that left a nasty dent as well as the driver side rear panel. I plan on fixing those dents ASAP but I wanted suggestions on where to start, which parts to get, etc. I’m not looking to do any engine work necessarily. Just exterior wise such as bumper, window visors, wheels, etc.

 

start by browsing this forum to get ideas...
then browse the stores...because it is all personal

Welcome to 3G TL land.

If you search this site you will come up with a fairly common theme when it comes to recommendations for new owners wanting to make some mods, "Maintenance over Mods".

Here are a few points:

• The 3G TL has proven to be capable of hundreds of thousands of miles with relatively little maintenance, that said, the maintenance which is required is pretty darned important.
• The 3G TL has proven to be a very poor platform when it comes to performance mods; said another way, the bang for the buck ratio is very low (spends lots of money, get very little performance gain in return).
• Mods typically do two things, 1) they cost a lot of money, and 2) they reduce the resale value of the car.

In the end it would be my advice to make sure the maintenance is up to date, and then to leave the car bone stock and enjoy it.
