Aftermarket Grills For The 09 Tsx--- Post Em' Up Here!!

Alright guys, Got rid of the 04 TSX for my S2000... i maybe interested in picking up an 09 TSX to supplement the impracticalities of my s2000.

the new 09 TL is ugly as sin and has become a fat bloated pig, TSX while may be adequately powered, disappointed me for not being any better than the previous genearation. ok well can't do much about that.

the biggest problem THAT CAN be fixed, acura's disgusting front ends...

Euro Accord grills, aftermarket ones, etc....

post up some pics!

well as of now, there is none.
there's the euro ones, but that's it.


below is the Accord Euro with it's standard grill:


and below is the Accord Euro sport grill:


to me it looks like one person designed the car from the back to the side
mirrors, then some other person did from the mirrors forward.
I don't see a nice flowing line at all on this car...

and I agree, the new TL is the biggest mess of the three.
all of them are failures.

too bad too, I really was starting to like Acura... oh well.

and above your avatar, you spelled bologna wrong.

sport grille = sexy time, however would it be a snug fit? IE will it sit flush in place of the original grille. I know that for the 1st gen TSX, the euro accord grille wouldn't exactly fit on the American TSX.

A lot of people are great with Photoshop. I am not one of those, but I enjoy playing around with it.

oh yeah.
this is news to me.
or are you talking about cheap ebay knock offs?
euro grilles are OEM, why wouldn't they fit?

maybe you tried to put an 04-05 grille on an 06-08, lol.

I never personally tried it. But I remember someone at another forum posted some pics. It was a pretty close fit, but he did say he had to shimmy off some of the edges to make the thing fit perfectly.

Do European front cash standards demand a different shaped front bumper? I think Canada has different requirements no?

Why hasn't any company fabricated a grille for the '09 TSX yet? It has been out for a while now.
