+1 on plan B but don't do Euro R. There isn't any official CU2 Euro R yet.

Nice, and it looks like you have the Body Side Mouldings. I have them on order for my 09, but they look a bit low to do any good.

thanks everyone for for your 2 cents. Originally i was going for a S2K...almost pick up an Evo X (hella fast) but the number didn't turn out that great, so I'd stick with the Accord (Euro R) theme. And since the 1st gen TSX been out for a while...I think it's nice for the 2nd gen TSX to get some spot light. And the 2nd Gen exterior looks kinna odd,I'll try to make mine Unique enough to change their minds :p (just simple add-on stuff and keep it clean).....Drop it for sure...but too bad they don't make parts for 09 yet :dunno:
But yeah....Happy 4th...don't drink and drive (if ya have to drive, drive someone else's car LOL .....J/K)

I'm not interested in the TSW's, sorry, but I would like to know more specs on them for when I decide to buy a new set of wheels for my '09.

You said they're 19"s, what width are they? What is the offset? What size tires on them? Do you have any rubbing issues whatsoever or do you think you may if you lower it?

Sorry for all the ?'s.

congrats on a ery sexy and sleak car....if I had the option just from being at the dealership my first MOD would be the grille, I think the new grille looks really cheap and substandard for such a high end luxurios car....but your call...

plng777 the TSW 19" Estirol give the car a more sportier look. What are width of the wheels front and back? What did you do about the tire pressure monitoring sensors (TPMS) for the new wheels? This information would be helpful.

I like the rims, it helps. The grill, that't all that needs to be changed. Maybe even paint it black :)

you'll need to switch out the tpms from the stock to your new rim. however, some rims like what i'm selling Volk GT-S can't mount tpms so you'll have to live w/ annoying flashing light and warning sign on the gauge...
