Please drive one before you start ricer-fy-ing it. The TSX is a really fantastic setup out the door. Unlike the Accord's from years past the stance and wheels are really spot on. And it's not some mushy rider...

Comptech makes some better then average goods for the car (if the Mugen fair is a tad pricey for you), with the S/C adding a nice dent to the wallet should you choose such.

Honda did a great job with the body kit and A-spec options as well. You can have that lowered look and a great matching body kit to boot.

But if neon lights and chrome strut bars are your thing I'm sure Ebay if full of them...

You seem very angry and jaded, what gave you the impression that aftermakret meant ricer? and who cares, hes the one that spent 30k on the car.

Relax guys, Chad is just doing his duty as a good HAN member and Honda enthusiast by trying to stop someone from wrecking a beautiful car out of the factory. You didn't say you weren't going to add neons to it, for all we knew you could have been asking where to buy APC accessories for it.

If you notice he added quite a bit of useful information in his post instead of just including links.

My own experience has shown that the aftermarket (the "Honda market" in particular) can generate some costly and superb examples of crap. Even from the big names (I tend to wonder why some of these names are exclusive to our market only?), throwing money at vast quantities of aftermarket parts can be a costly proposition.

Add who or what aftermarket parts is available, in generally, is vague to begin with. I guess my point is, if you don't find the car fast enough, or a satisfing drive to start with why buy the car.

Now if you said I'm really looking to tighten the handling, or have a unique look, then we could attack key areas and address why you are unsatified with the car. And make recommendation.

I've seen a lot of TSXs, changed for the sake of change. They've been augmented with parts and body kits whose fit and finish leave me in horror. The only conclusion I've drawn from many examples is money and good taste clearly can, at times, be exclusive to each other...

...and for giggles let's examine this topic I've seen before:
I'm looking to upgrade part (x) on my TSX, who makes the cheapest best (x). Perhaps I'm the only person finding this funny, I mean the car stickers for $27-29K MSRP, holds a high resale, and requires premium fuel at the pump. So in summary it's not the bargain basement consumer reports buy of the year. Yet, some people still want to add cheap? parts. (Now of course this isn't you, I know you'll do the forum justice.)

Now please, be a pal and close the other browser(s) you have open right now with the CF hood specs, we have better ways to drain your bank account.

Because I am a vehicle enthusiast. My hobby is modifying my vehicles. h:

Are you going to buy me the $100k AMG Benz w/all the HP AND gadgets? I certainly don't have that kind of money.

Wow, shopping for the best deal is a crime now? $29k is also not an expensive car in today's market.

Now please be a pal and stop being an ignorant asshat in my thread.
