Hey everyone. im a regular on acurazine but never knew about this site till today. on to my car
i have a 05 acura TL in SSM. the modding bug has hit hard and ive done everything that I can afford. I have a fujita cai, p2r tb spacer, 35% tint all around and a e cutout for my exhaust. I also added a infinity kabba 12 inch sub powered by a UL 2400 watt amp. Still have lots to do but its a work in progress

well your first mistake was buying performance parts on the TL; i mean sure, my TL is significantly faster than Jay's TL, but i've given up a lot of rider comfort for it; and bang for the buck, .... in the end i'm starting to regret it ~ if i just invested the same amount of money in comfort goods, the TL would be a show stopper and not so much bait for me to hit 140 on 55 south and get chased down for it.
while you're ahead, just focus on the looks; was there something on your front bumper? looked like some serious rock chips.
also, UA6spec is still selling those LED strips for the interior, i'm actually thinking about getting em for the inside of the car, if a few more of us are interested, i bet we could all buy together and save the grief over shipping money.
if i were you, get rid of the E-cutout thing w/e that is; and just go
Dice R4
A-spec kit
RJ Legends
better D2S bulbs, HID foglight/DRL conversion
ohhh and get the A-spec steering wheel (it feels soooo good)
and replace all the speakers in the car with the 4ohm ones...
let's face it, the UA6 was not designed for the strip, it was designed for comfort. and seriously get rid of the e-cutout thing, can you explain what it is? it looks so wrong, and makes your car sound like it's about to explode

well originally, i wasnt plannin on gettin a TL but my dad made it mandatory that i get a car with 4 doors..so that threw out half my list. the day we went to get my car, i went to get either a 07 g35 sedan, is350 or bimer 330i and um i ended up with a TL becuz of the ridiculous deal we got on it. ($25000 with 26000 miles on a 05 TL navi back in january) so im just making best with what i have. im not complaining, i loove the car. performance wise, im kinda done. it sounds much better in person and even if i wanted to, i cant sell the cutouts for more than $200. aspec kit is coming up shortly for sure. rest of the stuff will have to wait since i start SLU soon and wont be working nearly as much. but my birthday is coming up soon so im keeping my fingers crossed on a few of those things :thumbup:
