Yes those are optional, but damn $250 for all types minus the rear lip is amazing.

Of course im having fun. Spent to much time trying to keep the TL clean. Now i try and get the truck dirty.

Dan said you were at speed yesterday when i called. I need to get my fronts re-tinted to match the rears. Also got my leveling kit in yesterday, need to have that installed.

really bad habit


i got gtspec strut tower bar. no strut bar at all on the fx and heard it improves alot in handling.

intake, plenum spacer, strut bar, and tint all came $730. these will be everything i'll be doing to fx and maybe later on get UR underdrive pulley kit for better mpg and really really done with it.

price on ur pulley set is pretty hefty for the fx. its somewhere around $450

Yeah, but it's just the crank pulley, not the entire pulley set. I bought it off ebay (It was an Option pulley, though. Link: http://www.optionracing.com/features...jsp?itemID=628)

IMO most pulleys are so overpriced. Like those UR pulleys cost like $200 for just the crank.... Pretty spendy considering it's just an aluminum wheel...

No offense but IMHO the Servos are the ugliest wheels RJ offers. I'd just save up for the Inspyres if I was you. Much better lookin wheel, but that's just my opinion. Do what you want to your car!

3G TL forum continues to produce rice. Looks like Min and Kyle got out at the right time:
https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/2004-acura-tl-red-interior-757905/

Red leather paint, I mean WTF?!?! and that gets praise? Definitely serious rice, as their cars become worth less and less their minds become more and more rice. Even some of the "power" players are going rice.

What's wrong with the Chrome ones?

I'm actually not too big of a fan of getting rims, but since they're going for $400... The past couple days I've just been throwing myself around, deciding whether or not to even get rims, and instead use that money on any potential maintenance in the future.

and IMO the Chrome servos look pretty nice on a ABP CL-S (same one I have)

but ehh I really don't think I should get them either. I have a grocery list of things I need to do to the car. Like before summer comes, I need my 7-year service (timing belt) and I definitely want to get my windows tinted maybe before spring.

and that's just the top of the list

Meh, they're just so boring. I hate that the spokes get skinnier near the lip..they look like cheap rims even tho they used to sell them for a lot more than $400. I'd def save for upkeep.
For your tint, go to to Auto Superb in Beaverton. They did a kick ass job on my TL and my buddy, who now owns the place, got trained and worked for Alexia for some time. Check it out for sure
