RJSD and I recently tackled on a new kit for the 2010 TL. Let me know what you guys think. The kit prototype is still being refined and the molds should be done by this month.
Here's some progress shots in California: http://www.ronjonsportdesign.com/4g_tl_kit.html | Nice, but let's face it: you're no Arash.  | |

The new TSX and TL don't even sell. I rarely see them on the road. Posted via RS Mobile | |

they can redesign all they want, but until they come to their senses and get rid of that stupid corporate grille they've saddled their entire line with, it will never look right imo...

Can somebody give me a reason why I shouldn't import this? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/ctd/2203536655.html
All the used TLS are either silver or white in Vancouver.  | what are the reasons that ppl shouldn't import tl's anyway? they all seem so much cheaper than here
also the 2012 lift is uglier imo =s

I think the 2nd gen is the best looking. I used to see a blue one with full OEM kit slammed on stock wheels around Langara and it always got my attention. The new one is just awkward looking with the integrated bumper duct/foglights.

IMO the 03 type-s a-spec was the best TL made in terms of style and class.

it helps, i tried so hard to like it thinking that 4g look might grow on me with an aspec kit or blacked out or painted grille... but i still don't think the 4G TLs can look decent
