guys I have a roll of black vinyl enough to do a sedan roof just laying in my garage. If anyone wants it, it's gonna be cheap. Cheaper than buying locally or ordering online. PM me

Curry Acura used to supply us TSX's with a very good group buy price in the past but recently had to increase the pricing because of increased shipping fee's with Fedex. Glad I got my front lip right before they increased the pricing. As far as ordering any lip kit from any Canadian dealership, it will always be greatly more expensive than any US dealership, by almost double.

there is plenty of people running 10.5 all the way around, i would prob roll my fenders and such just in case, to be safe, and it all depends on how low your going

10.5 would work depending on how low, how much camber, how much fender work and what offset the wheels are.

How hard is it to wire in those sensors? I kind of want to do it on the front of FX as well. Rear I don't care about since I have a back up cam. Are they expensive?
