Got 15% tint today and started the debadging process yesterday. Also removed a crappy gold pinstripe that the dealer applied for some reason.

I'm looking for some advice on some mods. Interested in a grill, bodykit, suspension, and wheels. Hard to find pics of red tsx's though. Also do not have too much disposable income. Any thoughts? Thanks for any advice in advance.

Anyone have pics of a red tsx with black or gunmetal rims? Having trouble picturing these things in my mind.

Rear sway bar is a must... it should be on the top of the list.

Hate to be a noob, but what does that benefit me?

It strengthens the whole chasis, and reduces bodyroll.. and apparently it's very noticable on stock suspension.

TSX has the nastiest under steer and with the rear sway bar it will reduce it. I cant even make a "U" turn properly even on a 2 lane street.

I am the owner of a milano red/ebony 6spd/w.nav tsx (2006) as I bought it will stay-no mods. love it the way it is. I do not have any problems understeer on curves. Maybe cause I try to slow down a bit on sharp curves. Just curious when you debadge do you take on the acura plate that you see when you open the doors.

Nice tsx crix868. My car looks almost like yours. Just wish I had a 6spd. I also live in broward, Florida.

there is such a crazy difference between crix868's pictures! professional shots can make any car look hot. i like your wheels but perhaps, go lower?!

Howcome you don't have those rims anymore? Too harsh of a ride or something else?

I have a 6MT MR '06 TSX w/Parchment and am getting wheels/suspension very soon, and love the look of yours!

they were 35 series profile so it kinda killed the ride. for but i dropped them on my sisters L Tuned IS 300 which looks amazing and got the Mugen Rims from my boy b/c i'm more into racing and i take my TSX to the track about once a month.

Ordered the Icelink and bought the 80Gb Ipod. Denison lost my order 2 weeks ago. I called to straighten it out and I am told it will ship today.

There should be dedicated forums to all of the colors of the tsx within the pictures section. I need to see more pics of red TSXs to see what I like and don't like.

Finally got the Icelink, 22 days after I ordered. It is actually pretty sweet, though. Took 30 min to install. Got a free cradle that I probably won't mount. Ran the Ipod connection cord through the glovebox. Has some quirks, but overall works great. Cycles the text display rapidly sometimes. Still trying to get used to the control scheme. But sounds great and now I have 80Gb (potentially) of music in the car. :jester:
