Sorry, but I'm not feeling the stickers. It pulls away from the beauty of your TL.

It seems a bit out there just because I used flash but the colors are not that dramatic in person. I have to run the sticker to stay with the crew I'm in









This is how it looks 90% of the time. Just silver

This is inspiration for my SSM, I'm planning on 07/08 tails and a few other physical changes along with my suspension. And I picked up another set of stock 04-06 17s to Purdy up for wide tires.

Definitely glad to be your inspiration My car definitely isn't as modified as a lot of TLs but I like that its still simple.




Exact 6 month transformation. August 5, 2015 to February 6, 2016. Can't wait to pick up the coils and go lower

The small stuff is what makes the difference, IMO, and that's what I like about your car. It isn't outrageous or anything, simple but looks damn good.

BTW, I'm copying your grill when the weather clears up

Clean . Takes me back to the old days when I had an '04 SSM. To this day, I still believe that if my car was a 6MT instead of the 5AT, I would've kept it. 12 years later and the lines of the car are still gorgeous.

just curious how come you are going tein ss? that's two models older than what is currently out there. the tein street advance replaced the tein ss and there is also the tein flex which is a better model than the street advance

Well I'm buying from a part out and it was a good price I couldn't pass up. My friend has a TL on tein ss without any issues so I'm not too worried about quality or anything.

I'm in San Ramon but I'm out in Fremont/UC a lot. We have a UASquad meet coming up on Saturday, All TLs. I'll pm you the info later you should try to make it out! I'm pretty sure I've seen you a couple times when I lived in Fremont..

Also, I took my rear lip off last week and shipped it off yesterday... After I sell the suspension setup on my car I'll pick up the type s rear lip and some quads.

Just ordered the replacement bushing for my rear coil. Should be here by Friday. Also cars in the shop to fix a throwout bearing noise in the clutch again... I should have the car back by Thursday or Friday. So coils are still going on this weekend

Just picked my car up a few hours ago and its back to normal. The release bearing was greased a little. Coils are being put on this Saturday before a meet. My friend with shop access is helping me take care of it there.

Just installed the coilovers and winded them all the way down. It looks really nice and rides really nice too. I'll take some pictures later
