Spring Forward

My TL isn't all that, its a small start since i just got the money to start playing around with her.







HELP! I hate hate the rusty holes from my plates. I took the front plate off a few years back bc it got bent in a minor accident...but now the holes are looking shittier.

I wanna put a new front plate on. ANY SUGGESTIONS?
I would just keep it off, or find nice plugs (I really prefer the look of no front plate)....but technically its illegal to have no front plate, so any minor traffic violation can have more added on to my ticket.

Thanksssss!

Get one of those bar things that goes across the holes. I don't know what it is called but it look like a bumper so your actual bumper doesn't hit anything. I believe that go90go has one. The clear bumpers look nice. Do the fog light mod. It takes like 5 minutes. It will def change the look of your car.

Welcome.
Looks like a good start (clear signals, I still have to get mine). Fog light mod, a drop and nice wheels will do it (For now)

The one I have is half of a number plate angler. Two motorcycle cops pulled me over once and made me take my plate off, and I've gotten backed into so many times that I don't bother with putting it on.

Tony, you have time to come to SF today? I want to give you the centre cap but after driving so much yesterday, I don't want to go anywhere, haha.

~Cheers~

You should try looking for plugs like on the s2000. it'll be cheaper than shaving. good start at least your paint is clean!
