Talking My BS Thread (Part Deuce)

Welcome!

On April 21, 2010, I created a thread to show off my 2004 TL. Just over three years after it's creation, it reached over 226k views and over 6700 replies over a span of 168 pages. Quite epic considering my car isn't

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/cltothetl32-my-asparasocks-bs-thread-773269/

With that said, it's time for a new thread. There were pages on pages of pure rambling and even though the same thing will most likely happen here, at least the car is further along in the modding process

The following were taken by Eric (ACCURATEin) this past Saturday at the meet. Thanks mang!

Seems like making a new thread is the new and hip thing to do!

I shall do the same once I get decent pics of the car.

Awesome shots by Eric, but they wouldn't be possible without a great subject.

I had forgotten you had coilovers! Definitely bumped up the car's looks a notch.

I still say you should poke a bit more at all four corners. How's the low life treating you?

Awesome new pics!

Wow man I didn't realize you didn't have fogs! I personally prefer the accord fogs but both look nice.

I think you'll like the contrast it provides as opposed to the current (although clean) plainer look of the oem bumper grill.

The last thread really shows off the progress I made, but this one will show progress (if any) starting from this point forward. I'll also post pictures of any meets that I attend in this thread

The last thread was getting annoying. It was epic, yes, but no one new ever ventured into it because it was too crazy.

Thanks dood

I love the look

The beginning stages of having moar low were hard, I kept chopping up my front tires and bending out my fenders, but the new tires solved that problem. Now I'm trying to figure out the best way to get in and out of my parent's driveway without scraping anything

Yeah no fogs here, I always wanted to keep it as close to a 04-06 as possible, minus the tails of course.

I've always liked the Accord fogs, but I like the Inspire fogs more. We'll see what happens later this year!

Well I guess I'll post some pictures from this past weekend's meet! It was in Charlotte, where we all met for Cars and Coffee in the morning. We went to Sonny's Real Pit BBQ for lunch and then finished with some karting at Victory Lane.







































This new Vanquish stole the show:












alexSU and his girlfriend checking out Beat-Freak's car













I woke up in an old ass Bugatti!









That was all at C&C. Here's when we were at Sonny's:









My car was being assaulted:



The restaurant was right next to Foreign Cars Italia

















At the karting place:







Bee crashed















Wrong way Bee...



Really Bee. You can't go that way.



Six signs later he gets the hint

















Oh hey Alex. Ready to leave mang??



Oh shiet mang!







That is all.
