CONFUSED!..aztec or skipper?

I'm confused as to what you all are wanting. do you all want a group buy on aztec lips or skipper lip? we aren't talking about GRILLS here...

i prefer the skipper lip because the ends of the kit are curved in...curvey shaped as opposed to the aztec lip where the ends of aztec lips are just straight out and pointy.

AZTEC lip

sup h town boyz. Is that white TL urs?(TL balla). I was at the car show at the astroarena. ( is that where the pic came from?) Just wanted to know. I think the azect lip looks better. More sporty. The skipper one looks too round and liiks like something outta wings west and ****. Just my opinion. Damn Duece! if u get a lip for ur ride imma HAFTA get one fo mines! Then we can take pics. Let me know about the camber kit. Im interested too. My paradas are wearing on the inside believe it or not. Its a *****.. I can hear that **** ballin in the inside. Holla back niggahz!

cheeze,

haha that aint his ride foo. you ignant mang. he said he wanted that kit. that ride is player though i got to admit. i still think the azect is cleaner than tha skipper. thats my opinion. the skipper pieces look like they are floatation devices. its all good though. everyone got different tastes. imma get tha azect front wit tha value side skirts and back.

i'll let ya know when im gettin tha camber kit. i'll tell him to order two sets.

yea duece...i was thinking the same thing. It DOES look like floatation devices cuz its too "round". Well at least the car can float when another hurricanne Allison hits the area. No worries about flooding ur car right? If i had a first gen TL i would get the azect. Then ill be steady stuntin ridin' slab. And "bangin screw niggah...diamonds up against that wood!":p

Dbox,
I got my camber kit from Carboy..they are the same as the Accord. Ingalls part #3573 Front Honda Camber Adjuster w/ rubber Bushings +1-1/4 deg. to +3 deg. range..They were like 50 or 60 a side..Installed them for like 35 a side..Then I got an 4 wheel laser alignment at Super Auto Body (SAB's) off Bissonet..It cost me $85, but it took 5 hrs to get perfect, was able to get it to factory spec..I have over 10k miles on my tires and a 2" drop and still no sign of uneven tread wear..

Duece,
I had a 3.25" drop and was told by the shop doing the alignment to purchased front and rear camber kits, but I decided to raise it up to a 2" drop and it only required the front. They were able to get the front factory spec. -1 deg...The back since it is only being pulled it did'nt need the camber kit. The back has like -1.5 deg. (looks like a BWM rear camber)
But like I said I have only a 2" drop if you are lower it might require the back, but if you have wide wheels you wont be able to straighten it all the way.

i think the topic of this post went out of subject..

anyway, so which camber kit goes with GROUND CONTROL coilovers??? i think ground control coilovers go as low as 3".......not too sure. COMPTECH sells camber kits for our year model. um...i think this site sells some along with NOPI.
