Welcome to the boards!! Ask any questions that come to mind!

Soopa's TL was smashed between two other cars! very very bad..he was okay though, and he got the CL-S after that crash.

He also said he had a lot of problems with his TL..

Welcome. I joined about 1 month ago and have really enjoyed the advice and tips offered here.

I just installed clear bumper lenses last week and they are beautiful.

Also looking to go with Philips HID this summer.

Welcome again.

Pacific Mall in Scarborough/Markham.
Kennedy and Steeles in the east end. They have the HID's for about $800 CDN installed. That's where I go for all my car toys! The place is like an oversized Flea Market, you should check it out. The store I went to is called "Stevens". I don't have the number on hand right now but will post it when I find it.
