no, we dont have any 'not in use-used sets' floating around in houston.
and for $500? tho?
that seems like you're setting yourself up for failure.
since coilovers sort of retain their value, as its either working or its not working, 500 dollars seems like you want a non-working set of coilovers...

and arent you like turbo'd and stanced out?!?

Those were $525, ill ask around. I know Emannuel in Houston is taking his coils off and putting some stiffer ones on. Im sure he'd cut you a good deal. How much are you looking to spend?

I've only had experience with Glacier Window Tinting in Arlington, TX, about two years ago in regards to window tint.

Paid $260 for Llumar CTX, which is the second-best tint they carry and is ceramic to fit my preferences (I believe it costs $140 for regular dyed tint, and $180 for metallized, all of which carry a lifetime warranty). Only had to take it back once when they didn't tint the little quarter window panel very well in the rear doors of my TL, but a pleasant experience with them otherwise. They also recommended against installation of moleskin for my car, since they said that the CTX is scratch resistant. Holding up well so far, so I trust their word!

As far as vinyl wrapping, I would take that to IRide Customs in Arlington. I have spoken to the owner, whom several of my friends know and is a great guy. I have seen his work in person and he is meticulous in everything he does... I was present when they were installing a paint-matched carbon fiber hood on an Evo and it looked fabulous, and he has also rolled fenders for my buddy who has an Si.

The only reason I'm bypassing taking my car to him to get my roof wrapped is because he wanted $200 for it... But that's also because I'm attempting to wrap my roof on my own. Attempt #3 coming up soon! If I could do it all over again, I would very well take it to him.

You still have my number? I am interested in your wheels and suspension. The coils will work on my Legend if I source some CL strut forks.

Hey guys! New to the community here and to owning an Acura! My 14' TL is treating me well and I want to invest on the exterior!

Here's the link to my intro post describing what I currently have and what I'd like to move towards. Current dilemma that I seem to be having is compatible parts for the 14' TL.

https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...4#post15111864

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated! Especially any professional contacts That would have parts or do installation in the DFW area. I'm located in Plano so the closer the better!
