Wink Finally some pics.

I have not taken real pictures of my car yet. I got out a hour early off work and had time before school started. I took these pictures at Marine Park. Only thing noticeable is the drop and tints. Mugen and Varianzas T1 FTW






and to let you guys no I am a modder so expect a sweet looking RL


For old time sake


I cannot believe I got over this car

well I had a journal of my car on the TL forums(that was my old TL). But since i removed the pictures from photobucket you can no longer see them.

It had:
A-spec Kit
Greddy Exhaust
RJ 19 Inspyres
Cleared Headlights
Tints
Honda Accord Fogs
TL-S Tails

Oops i forgot click my user name. I have a photoalbum with pictures of it

hmm. after doing alot of research on the kit. Fiberglass + NYC don't mix. I would have a heart attack if the lip cracked. It is 2795$. It will be very expensive to fix. So the mugen is off the list. for the $3000. I would rather buy the Aspec kit and H&R Coilovers. I need slammage when i get the rims.

I wish to see the mugen body kit on your car. Come on just go for it~ And I thought you already dropped your car. Did you just put the lowering springs? So if you purchase H&R coilover then are you going to sell the springs? I really wish to the mugen kit on your car.
Touge had the mugen kit even though he is in NY.

New York is tough on cars, been there myself for a few years.
I would go the A-Spec route even though the kit does not lower much (see sig). But the ride is still comfortable yet still offers a firmer setup.

So i was looking at your pix and was like...so wheres the "after" pics of the drop? Then realized that it is already dropped

So yes, Please get the coilovers and increase the drop, drop it more then 2". You claim you want the ACE rims and gonna need slammage, but with your car at 1.5 allaround now and planning on going 2" all around it wont make much of a diff, thats only half an inch, not that much of a slammage compared to what you are now.

Please dont get me wrong. Im not ragging on you at all.

Hahaha thanks Shawn.
Get the FS-01 for the wheels, that's on my list for my next project, I'm getting Tein Coilover also.

That windshield tint looks hot I'll probably go with 50% though.
How's the visibility with 30%???

Yeah the visibilty is really good. Definetly do 35%. 50% is too light. I mean I live in NY and got hasseled for it only once. did you remove the quad setup on your exhaust?

Probably going with 35% then, I hope should be ok since I got my side all 15%

Yeah the quad still in it, still confused which route going to put on.
I like the way quad exhaust look but I think I'm losing my low end since there no back pressure I guess.
So maybe put back my rear mufflers and just put the quad tips.

So did you ordered your A-Spec kit yet?I got mine cheap, hooked up from my sales person
