Bring back the original ride control, stability, and handling of your Honda or Acura with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 341257, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube front strut. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2003 Acura CL, 1999-2003 Acura TL, and 1998-2002 Honda Accord — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment. KYB's Excel-G is built on the same OE assembly lines using OE-quality components and is calibrated to restore the vehicle's originally designed performance, not change it, earning its OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) classification.
