I recently bought a TL (automatic, but hey, no one's perfect!), and live in Chandler. I'd be down to meet up some time.

Anyone here know how to black out headlights or know of a good place to get my TL tinted?
I can already feel that Arizona summer sun beaming through my windows.

Talking Whats up AZ people!

Hello AZ members! I am new to the site and wanted to drop by and introduce myself. My name is Tim and I don't currently have an Acura.... but do have an 8th Gen Civic Si. I love the car and know there are several similarities between them, besides Honda Motor Company of North America.

Decayin invited me to join here and meet some good people along the way. Also, I have been tinting windows on and off for over 20 years. If anyone has any questions, feel free to contact me via PM once I hit my 5 posts and 15 day hazing period.

Thanks!

Tim

^ Nice!

It's weird to me that there's such a lack of camaraderie among Acura drivers here, specifically those with 4G TLs. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who actively identifies other Acuras on the road - hell, I'll wave at other Acura drivers. They look at me like I've lost my mind and potentially want to rob them.

Wow... That is interesting. I know that over the years each vehicle I drive attracts a different type of attention from the individual owners. The lifted Superduty I have gets no attention from the stock Superduty owners, but the lifted trucks always seem to get a wave or a nod in return. The Civic Si gets every little Rickey Racer wanting me to throw down at every traffic light, yet I refrain from collecting any more driving infractions! LMAO!

I wish I could help ya there... But my welder has been building my custom rack for my train horns, air tanks and compressors for the last 7 + months. It would be safe to assume you were wanting this done sometime this year, right?

Ha!! I know exactly what you mean about the Civics - Si or no Si. I get that a lot, too, but the worst is my poor boss and is '12 STi.

Not sure what dealership you are loyal to, but Dave, one of the service techs at Acura of Tempe, has hookups all over the valley. He may be able to help you find someone. Just a thought.
