Very nice. My last car was black and I wanted a change so I went with Anthracite, but sometimes I wonder if I should have gone with black. Well, still haven't seen my new 2006 at night so I'll see how it looks later (only trips to work so far).
 
Where/How did you do the illuminated doorsill trick - that's pretty cool.

Thanks. I've tried other colors, but I always come back to black. Nothing looks better when it's clean.
 
I found the doorsills on ebay, but they were quite a bit less a year ago. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ACURA-TL-2004-2005-ILLUMINATED-DOOR-SILLS-SILL-04- -05-06_W0QQitemZ8055892164QQcategoryZ42612QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

If you really like to make your Acura TL special, go to this website. http://www.ronjonwheels.com/acsedans.html
 
I orderd a set of new 18" rims for my 2006 Acura TL (wish I could post them up here). Mine is the Anthrcite 18" rims, with 245/45/18 Toyo Tires. I love the look of the "machine polished" rims. I dislike the OEM rims; they don't do anything for me (17" rims?).
 
These RonJon rims are made ONLY for Acura's and Honda products. These guys started their own business because they got tired of trying to find rims for an Acura/Honda that didn't need a spacer or Shim on the hub area, to make an after market rim fit. The rims I bought fit perfect on the TL and look fantastic!!

I am in the process of purchasing a 2006 TL...I saw the RonJon web site and am considering their wheels verses the 18' Acura upgrade. Did you have a dealer install on the rims or a local shop? (I assume the rims are made to allow the tire pressure monitor system to work) I think the RonJon body kit looks good too , at least the back end, but haven't seen any feedback on it yet.
 
Any concerns with the RonJon rims?

The rims came in these expensive looking boxes, wrapped in this soft cloth to prevent any scratches. These rims are fabulous. I simply took the rims to "Discount Tires". They ordered my Toyo Proxes 4 tires (matched Edge Racing's Price). When they came in they mounted and balanced them for me. In addition you get the free lifetime rotation & balancing. The rims look great. Much nicer then those OEM rims. I went with a 245/45/18 tire. It gives just a tad more width, without sacrificing the ride. Some people put the 19" or 20" rims on. That's too big and I didn't want the rough ride. Hope this helps.

Qwall, I don't know if you're still looking
in these forums, but did you get your OEM rims
dipped in the chrome color or did you actually
get different rims? I wish Acura offered the
OEM rims in the chrome. They look fantastic!

Thanks. I'm around every once in a while, but not as much as I used to be. I bought the chrome rims on ebay from OEMRIMS, and I sold my non chrome rims on ebay. Final cost was about $600.

Qwalls, what a nice car... I just got mine last week. I'm so excited. I found the ILLUMINATED on Ebay.. I really want that.. but I don't know if I can install those myself... How did you do it? did you bring it to a shop to have it installed? if so how much they charge you...? if not how hard is it to do it yourself....
 
thanks,

Thanks. It's really a great car (with a few minor flaws) and I haven't found another car that I like better anywhere close to that price range.
 
I did the it myself. Basically if you can install a stereo or amp, you should be able to do it. You run the positive for each one to the fuse box and you run the negative/ground for each one to the corresponding door switch. They come with instructions, but I would think any stereo shop could do it.
 
Good luck.

Hi Joe,
  I just saw your question on here. I know it was written a year and a half ago. I had a hitch installed this summer. If you're still interested in pics, let me know and I'll email them to you.
