go to the "vendors" section above (next to Garage which is next to Log Out)

and contact the ones who sell OEM parts

Let them know your year, model, color etc and they'll help you out from there

But it doesn't look like that, from what I know only the Canadian tl type s has that look and they also call it the tl aspec instead of type s

Canadian TL type s has the a spec option which is only for type s not base model. And like explained in your other thread it is called the OEM optional lip kit and not the type s lip kit because it came as an option on the base models as well and not just type s models. hence OEM optional lip kit. A spec lip kit is for 3rd gen TL. Hope that helps haha.

A-spec isn't a kit. It's more of a "badging" or "feature" if you will, for the Type S in Canada only. A-spec contains features such as blue colored interior trim accents in the seats, center console and also colored headlights to match body color (blue or black) since A-spec's only came in blue or black in Canada. The OEM lip kit comes with the A-spec TLS because it came as an option on the Type S models as well because there are Type S without a lip kit and only Type S with the OEM lip kit get the A-spec badge (I believe, someone correct me if I'm wrong)

edit: "the TL A-Spec is a Canada-only special edition for 2003 limited to only 800 vehicles- 400 blue and 400 black. The A-Spec package takes the already excellent TL Type S and adds: body-coloured front, side & rear aero skirts, 6-spoke alloy wheels, rear spoiler with integrated LED marker lights, HID Headlights, euro-style side turn signals, heated power mirrors, heated/memory seats, blue perforated leather accents inside, high-contrast white gauges, A-Spec floor mats, auto-dimming mirror, & 6-disc Acura/Bose premium audio system with subwoofer."

taken from an article on nsxprime. That pretty much covers it

lol there's no way you can have all of the interior accents with the sidemarkers and headlights a-spec spoiler and no oem kit or a spec wheels. It comes as a package so unless by some crazy chance someone parted out just the wheels and kit before they sold you the car, then its not really possible to have everything but the wheels and kit. Plus, there's an A spec badge right under the Type S badge on the trunk as well. do you have a pic of your car? if so post it and I'll let you know.

You'd have to host it from somewhere where it gives you a link then you could post it. I use photobucket
