^ you have the sides and the rear a-spec right? The front is just an ebay lip, not too many of them out there, and not a TOTAL failure, but still a-spec is nicer. for the kit locally, contact this guy: krisalbertsalumbides@yahoo.com, he gave me some prices for the side skirts and the prices matched what I would have paid from US.

What is service B? Timing belt? I just did mine and I got someone to do it for free and I just got the parts. But if you go to the shop they want around 600-800$ with parts. If that's service B, if not, I don't know haha

Mike, I remember Millwoods Honda did that to my Accord for around 250$. If u bring it to an Acura dealership, it will be more expensive.

Went to Southview. They have a board in their lounge area that compares their prices to competitors and they seem to have the cheapest prices for service.

we do it ourselves. That's the only way you can be 100% sure that no one is gonna use wood screws to install the lip kit hahaha

but seriously, most of us did it outselves.

where did you get teh kit from? I am not sure how the TSX kit bolts up to the car, and do you have instructions on how to do it? Search through the TSX side of the forum, I am sure there are instructions posted somewhere.

Got it from another TSX owner brand new never installed for $400 shipped. Kit came in black primer..Its a Mugen Style Lip kit. Don't think it came with instructions either but it doesn't seem too difficult to install. Read through a couple DIY threads. I've got a couple buddies that are going to be helping paint and install with me but I'm unsure on what kind of sized screws and clips I'll be needing.

From what I recall on my tsx, my lips were screwed in where mud flaps would go and the rest was secured by 3m doublesided tape.

Nah, too much walking for my knee atm. I might hit up the pentiction event though, dunno yet.

Not sure how I separated this subframe mount, which is now fixed



Same with new front brakes

Tops are new in comparison to what was left on the factory bbk. The passenger side was worse

Looks sharp Sanjay. Damn that reminds me I really need to install my DRL kit. Have you had any problems yet installing without those gold resistors or whatever they were?

I got all my lights in now so I have to find a day to tackle everything at once. Swap headlight bulbs to 6K, install 6K DRL kit, install zkw-r lenses, cf wrap amber diffuser in headlight, black out chrome strip in headlight, install 6K fog light kit, and fix cracked foglight. Anyone willing to help me take off my front bumper and bake my headlights?

Hey out of curiosity. Would any members be interested in getting acurazine or 3G TL etc t-shirts or goodies made? I have a buddy who owns a clothing company and He does a lot of custom work and for car forums and such. Is this something that interests you guys?

I would like a 3G tl shirt, like a sweet outline of one maybe. Not acuraZine though, that's kind of gay.
