nice, always a fan of a fellow acura enthusiast! welcome and nice tsx.

My honest opinion is that shes clean as hell but spacers and a stretch would give it that extra touch. good luck and keep us posted!

I agree with MaxPOwer... Welcome... Really nice, I see you take pride in modding your TSX... I would add that lowering at least another inch or more and doing as requested by Max would get the stance at a better position...

imma try to put a positive point and a constructive criticism in every post i make on this site, so remember its all my opinion.

i am a fellow acura owner, and that is a clean tsx :biggthumpup:

on the other hand, a lot of ppl these days just slap curtains and a fusa on and label there car VIP or VIP style or VIP influenced. try throwing on some spacers and lowering it a tad.

That's pretty cool.

I don't really care for the wheels, but it's clean overall and I can appreciate that

Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions. I can go lower, I just need to roll the fenders/quarter panels a bit more. As for spacers, how many mm, 5 or 10mm?

I know all I have is JP accessories but I do have the only WALD grill in cali and im trying to order a full lip kit and wing from Value Sports. So i'm far from being where I want to but this will do.

I'll post more pics when it's slammed. Thanks again for the warm welcome.

Looks good. Are there window visors available for your car that don't cover up the polished trim? Or ones with the trim?

The only visors that keep the chrome trim visible are weather tech but I dont like their dsesign. So I'll stick with the OEM ones. You dont know how many people actually try to get rid of the chrome, but they're more into the sport look.

So the OEM ones don't have the chrome trim? Weird. Lexus and Infiniti OEM ones have it and the weather tech ones don't. The ones that don't have it can be picked up at AutoZone or Pep Boys. Are you trying to get rid of your chrome trim yet only have some of it covered? Are you more into a sport look but have curtains? Just curious. Your last comment now shows the car's identity crisis.

I am going for more of a luxury/classy style. In order for the visors to be installed correctly, they have to sit on top of the chrome. I love the chrome. I just wish mines were more visible. I use to own a fully modded civic that was JDM/race inspired and now that I've upgraded, I want to go a "grown-man" route.

plusONE huh? I think I met you before through the JSJ Brothers. Or maybe not. Clean TSX. If you owned the kandy red eg then I know who you are. And this is just a starting point for you. Lower it more. If you need anything, let me know.

instead of spacers try a different set of wheels with correct specs.

nice tsx , i love these cars, very reliable with the classy look. honda has ruined this type of image with their new line up. this is just my opinion but , putting jp products on a honda is kinda like false advertizing.

Yeah I know I need to go lower but the streets of SF are killer.
Thanks for all the comments.

Thanks man. Your GS is pimp.
These are actually old school Sebring wheels made by Rays.

Yeah plusONE crew. I use to own the Kandy EK. I probably have met you through them. Im definately a fan of your 240. Im still far from what I want this car to be but it's gettin there. Thanks man.

I got these wheels for dirt cheap, so I couldnt pass them up. They're not the most suitable wheels but what specs do you recommend?
Dude, I bought the curtains/fusa from you back in May on may vacation.

Thanks. I agree with you on the whole Acura thing. The JP parts on a honda = false advertising. I respect your 2cents. I just enjoy that presidential feeling. That very important person look.

This car is a bit confused. It looks good as is, but it looks like a sporty TSX with some JP accessories. Strip that away and you have a fun 4 cyl. engine and a 6 speed transmission. The MF10's looked more in place on this car.

Nothing wrong with trying to build a VIP style TSX. I would start with some wider 18's to achieve a great stance and then perhaps start thinking about a kit that doesn't give off such a sporty feel.
