M2: El Ban's guide to owning a BMW and not becoming a douche!
Yeah I know you are all sick of seeing all the A-Spec kits and lips etc etc..
But I am excited anyway and since I searched numerous times before ordering searching for lots of pics of how it looked on the 2008 TL and never got many just 04-06 with Accord fogs..
I ordered just the front lip since I had purchased the mud guards.. I am a mudguard + front lip guy... always liked this combo on hondas/acuras instead of full kits...
I will be installing next week since I am scheduled for surgery tomorrow and will take a couple of days afterwards..
Got it from John at Curry.. second order from them.. these people know how to do business..
Going on to this pup..
Now I will start reading all those write ups many of you have kindly put together for us..
Will put up more pics after installed..
Still debating if we will install with the bumper on or off.. was thinking also upgrading the fogs since the oem light output looks weak.. but I can't find any truly white bulb.. most of them tend to be blue.. nokya hyper whites the bulb looks blue!

I think I read your thread asking if they were interchangeable from year to year but didn't dare to answer cause i really don't know.. Try asking stillhere153 in this thread..

It's really the second since the first were the mud guards.. but it seems like this lip and the whole kit are really the first mod anyone pulls off on TL's

Thanks! Surgery went as planned.. will rest until Tuesday got some pain but hopefully the pain killers will help me live with it the next days..
Thanks to all for the comments..
Hopefully I will have my friends work the install any day between next Wednesday and Friday.. I'll have pics!

I know! I saw your thread on it.. looks really great with the kit installed..
Did you figure out where you wanted your A-Spec badge located?
I will be purchasing the all season mats and the badge also.. pretty sure I'll put it under the TL letters..

I did the same combo - front lip, splash guards, etc. Mine also has the A-Spec suspension installed. Here's how it turned out:

Will be doing the install this next week.. Doc didn't take my cast off so I haven't driven my TL since last Friday :/
Hopefully I'm driving by Monday again and will do the install with a couple of friends..

They have excellent service and prices.. got the mudguards from them in one order and the lip later on.. soon I will order the all season mats from them also..
Full A-Spec kit from them is at a competitive price.. Check their site directly or search for them on ebay..

2009..
Well I really abandoned this thread...
Been a while.. Have it since brand new.. And this last week already bought all needed parts for the 105k maintenance.. Plus all the engine and tranny mounts..
From the first mod being the lip I haven't done a lot since its been the daily..
Installed the mud guards, lowered on an Eibach Pro Kit.. Added the trunk lip spoiler.. Ran a couple sets of 255's..
Deleted the mid muffler and changed the resonator to a dynomax..
Also will be installing the OEM vent visors to be able to crack open the windows when parked and NOT have the dash crack again..
08 and my dash cracked nasty.. Got a local dealer to change it out after reading all the threads here..
Just rolled my rear fenders to install some wheels I ordered..
Looking to get 100k more miles out of it..
Will try to update a bit more.. Once I add the rims..

You can verify online the part number which varies by color and email them requesting a quote..
Tell them Esteban sent you.. I have bought from Curry tons of parts fro the TL and my track car which shares most parts with the Integra and they have never let me down..
