Nice thanks, first off i need to buy it, i was looking for group buys but didn't find any so i am going to order from Acura of Lynwood, they have it for $770 shipped and once i get it i will definitely let you know. And for the others that want to join the party i gotta say "free" does sound good ha? Well i think i can do a small party of 5-6 fellow acuraziners.

haha your not the only one, i wanted a A-spec kit since i got my car. I'm from riverside area but from norcal. So i have like no tools here at all, but i also have to deal with my fender dent, my car got hit and run so i have to deal with that first so i can then put the a-spec on.

It is.. but on the rear bumper there is 4 "X" marks where ur suppose to drill to mount w/ screws and only 3 aligned perfectly for me.. the 3rd was way off..

so i'd suggest you measure the distance between the mounts (on the aspec rear) and the "x" marks on the rear bumper before ANY drilling. haha just to be safe

I thought I messed up one of my drill marks on the back, but it turns out that i just had to stretch the lip a little bit and it gave it a nice tight fit

Never installed one, but if you're anywhere near the 909 I'm down to come kick it with everyone when this install party goes down. You don't gotta kick me free food though lol

I'm still waiting to. Not sure if I should lower the car first though, or go with the A-spec kit. Decisions, decisions.

I'm still on the fence about the a-spec kit. You WDP TL-S in the 323/626 area need to drive around more! I haven't seen a WDP TL-S with the A-Spec yet, I'm waiting to see one in person before I make my decision.

I used to play a lot of tennis. But then life happened and I got a job.

Maybe I need new contacts cause I've only seen one in the area.

Lol, yea shoulders and elbow pain suck. Cause of tennis i have this "click" when rotating my shoulder from hitting all those kick serves.

Which HS did you play for? Maybe we were in the same division.
