Here's a few pics of my car currently since I'm not that active on the forums anymore. I haven't really posted my car on Azine but if you want to see more you can follow my IG 1_sik_bagged_TL
Here is my car updated with:
- Tein Street Advance at the height I want. Some may say "too high" but I wanted stance that looks aggressive but close to an OEM look
- 23MM spacers all around
I have been experimenting with the grill so haven't committed to a full paint job until I arrive at what I feel is the best look.
Current grill setup:
- Surround trim painted in plasti-dip smoke
- Black vinyl used to seperate shield from surround.
- Black vinyl used to seperate hood from shield
- The last pic shows this best as you can see the way the black vinyl really seperates the shield from the grill right back to the hood. To each their own, but I have found this looks right to me. Depending on lighting conditions, the grill surround can come across very dark (near paint colour) or lighter as in some of these pics due to the sodium lights. Anyways, the grill is fun to play around with
I know there is a lot of hate on for plasti-dip. But it is great for experimentation before committing to a final result. It is useful as we play with our automotive canvas.

Been busy with the RDX build but just added the Morimoto XB LED's with the yellow Laminx film and love them. Now gonna order switchbacks and DRL's finally. Having a hard time deciding between modding the OEM headlights or just shovel out the $500-600 for the deep black housings and keep my poem headlights original.
Just one shot from the crew BBQ a coupe weeks ago (before foglight install):
This is my 09 WDP the day I picked it up. Purchased from a member here, andrewcjduong! Great guy and a great car! Will be starting a build thread today. Car's changed quite a bit from when I picked it up
Gotta start somewhere and you are off to a great start. Just need some wheels and you'll be right there. I still love the drop on the factory 18's.
Thanks CARBONTSEX
that's saying a lot. Seen your whip around Seatown here and there and your whip and few others I saw in the Pacific Northwest is the main reason why I had to get me one.

Oh damn so you're local? Nice! Thanks for the kind words. Gonna have to get you out sometime. Maybe the next BBQ I host with my crew and others. Rarely take the TL out. Maybe once or twice a week. I'll be at the Acura of Lynnwood car show on August 9th. I'm registered for VIP parking.
