it's the perfect example of keeping it simple with the oem a-spec body kit, the euro R trunk lip, correct emblems (because putting honda badges on ones acura is so jdm rice), nice suspension and sitting on a sick set of rims.

Things have changed a lot since I saw the car in person.

Are there any pics with both your and BHG's car?

That's hawt Erick! Saw it at the Acura Woodbine meet but I didn't even get a chance to say hi before you abruptly left.

Honestly though, If I had a TSX I think I would do the lip kit and that lip spoiler just the same, along w/ the suspension (don't think I'd go THAT low though). Insurance, school, and shitty jobs own me. Can't wait until I graduate...

Looks sweet man. I need to get the small rear lip spoiler for mine. I also wanted the fogs but I hear they crack very easily - how do you find them for quality?

i heard the same thing about the fogs but mine aren't wired up yet. they are for the euro accord which i thought was the same thing but the wiring is a little bit different from the usdm tsx. I'll figure it out one of these days.
