I say its the wheel bearing. jack the car up off the ground and see if there is any play in the wheel. while car is jacked up rotate wheel also to see if there is any friction, it should spin freely.

He all ready has the TLS's done. He didn't have a 04-06 aspec version and needed a stencil to use. I was bored and have pretty good skills at using paint.

Check here: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/new-vendor-acura-tl-shirts-apparel-f-s-%2415-00-%2Afree-shipping%2A-859075/

The back didn't seem to have enough black like the front so I changed it up a little.

I want some new wheels ! But , Im savin up to do my system 1st then ill do wheels ! I cant decide on which I want ! Rota Grids or BBS RC style wheels with a deep lip . I had BBS RC's on my VW and loved the look and I think it would look good on the TL . Only prob is the BBS RC's arent the right bolt parttern, 5x100 .

So off the top of my head then that gives us TacoMac, Duckworths, and what else. Trying to think of places with a nice patio in hopes that it will be nice out.

Not sure, I could ask. I know the TL stuff I did he just used parts of it and modified it to match the vectors blue rocket did. So I doubt he'll use these actual images so you could have a one of a kind TSX shirt.
