car looks to be very familiar, it was my first 01 kit i molded. glad to see it still rolling! :thumbsup:

It's clstypeslow's old old car. Haha I think two people owned it after he sold it and before I bought it. You did a great job on the kit.

knew it looked familiar.

Damn, I miss that car. Wish I never let it go! :(

Nice

One man trash is another land treasure :)

Nice, the wheels look great. Not a big fan of yellow foglight film, but to each his own.

Thanks man, yeah I was thinking about taking it off.

Couple new ones.

Nahh looks gooood. :thumbsup: Great looking car man.

Thanks man

Very nice

Thinking about painting the wheels mag blue? What do you think?

id say no. i like the white

I know the white looks good, but im getting tired of it. Kinda wanna change the look up of the car.

Yeah but the blue on your color I think might be strange looking. Don't get me wrong I'm all for crazy colors but I just don't think it will mix well with the car color.

Any other color choices you think would look good?

What wheel are those? It's so sexy, I might have to find a set for my car next summer.

Rota Tourque

Which are a knock off of Work CR-Kais.

I think that lighter colors would def benefit the car. Maybe teal a goldish color?

what kind of film is on the fog?

Anyone know how much that custom mold of TL body kit to the Cl would cost?

Nice pictures. :thumbsup:

It depends on how much you can get the kit for, and if you plan on doing the work yourself, or paying someone to do it. If done right with the kit, materials, paint. $1,000+ give or take.

Got it off ebay.

what kind of wheels are those

It was mentioned above. Rota Torque - knockoff Work CR-Kais

Car looks real good. Nice pick up. Have ou thought of maybe spacing out the wheels a bit?

Yup got 10mm spacer coming for the back and 5mm for the front. A little stance nothing crazy.

Got the windows tinted today. 20%

Keep in mind the further you push the wheels out the lower of a profile tire or more of a stretch tire you will need to run to avoid rubbing the outer side of the fenders.

Also with the 5mm spacer you might be kicking youself in your ass because it's not nothing you will even see as far as increasing your stance.
5mm is less than 1/4".
I would do 10mm minimum in the front.
What's your wheels offset now ?
The tint job looks clean.
How much it cost you ?

You think I can get away with 10mm in the front with 225/45/17? I could adjust the camber I suppose. I know I can for the rears. My wheel offset is +45 I think. My wheels are 17x8. Tint was $130.

I'm not the wheel master but,
10mm would sit your front wheels flush.
Depending on how low your drop is I supose.Is weather it would fit good.
If your tires are already tucked under your fenders then running more camber would be a must with no rub.
If I was going for a stanced look with your wheel I would do a 205mm wide front tire. It would give you all the extra clearance you will need for the 10mm,even possibly 15mm with a little camber. 15 would get the stanced look in the front.

You have the 5/10 on the way I would definitly try the 10 in the front.

Well these tires have ALOT of tread left on them so I have to deal with them. I think ill try the 10mm up front might have to raise my car up a little up front. and 12mm for the rear. What you think about that? Thanks for the help by the way.

I had my CR-Kais flush - not hella flush since thats not my style - but flush.

They were 18x8.5 +43mm running 235/40s. They stuck out ~8.3mm further then what youre currently running, assuming your wheels are in fact +45mm. I wasn't slammed like you though, but the front didnt require any mods but the rear needed to have the fenders rolled and the tabs trimmed.

Thanks for the help. I guess I will go with 10mm up front

Solid!!

Not the cleanest CL-S in NC but it will do.......lol

Deff needs spacing, But a very clean car man. Cant wait to see it in person next month.

Haha thanks man. Yeah cant wait to see yours either. I took off work already to make sure ill be able to make it to the meet haha

I guess I will turn this into my build thread.

Last night while driving home from the movies I ran over a HUGE rock and cracked my oil pan. FML.

Picking her up from the shop tomorrow.

Also, I plan on painting my wheels teal. Im getting tired of white all my previous cars have had white wheels. Heres a photoshop chop of how it will look. C/C Welcomed.

Also, did lime green to. Dont like it as much as teal.

That's a little overboard imo, looks like a clown car! Otherwise car looks great!

I guess ill be driving a clown car then haha. Thanks though :thumbsup:

lime/takata if I had to pick between the two.
I do have some black Onxi pearl I will give you if you want to do them black.

lol nice you even kept the rock as a souvenir

IMO, neither. ditch the ROTAs all together if you can. I'd say a dark graphite/gun metal or light satin bronze would look good with that color. The other 2 look like skittles.

The teal looks better than the green.
The green is just too much.

Still undecided. I would like to ditch them. I've had them up forsale for months now. When tax time rolls around I'll get new wheels for sure.

Got my car back today. Check out my old oil pan.

Holy sh!t !
How's the front lip ?
Any other damages ?
Exhaust,oil pick up strainer ?

Lip and bumper are both good, no damage. They were able to salvage the strainer. New OEM oil pan and gasket.

I don't know how that rock could fit under there. Mine don't have a lip kit and that thing would smashed my front bumper.
Well,I guess you got pretty lucky with only 100 pan.
But,you need a luck charm or some shit man.
How bad was the damage to the strainer ?
If the rubber gasket is not fully seated or their is a crack you will have low oil presure.

How long did the engine run after you hit the rock?

Not even a minute. As soon as I hit the rock the oil light came on luckily I was the right lane so I pulled over and shut it off.

Not going bronze. I had grids on my car before didn't really like them alot. Here's a picture.

Yea Im not a fan of the bronze on that color either. How about Magnesium Blue thats on certain Volks?
