Honda Legend Downtown Photo shoot Part 1

So anyways, I venture off to my usual spot for my photo shoot this morning. For some of you might know, I always pick this spot from my previous TL that I used to own. So..without further due, hope you enjoy it!

The Rotora is going to look nice on your ride man. I was going to get Rotora, but ended up going with Endless.

I think the yellow will look pretty good with your color combo you have now. Although personally, I think the blue rotora BBK would look amazing on your ride as well.

Nope. TL brembo won't work on tsx.

I did some research back in the days, and I came to realize that TL brake and tsx brake set up is completely different. This is one the reason why you never seen any tsx w/ TL brembo set up.

Factory Brembo from the TL will not fit. But Brembo itself have a BBK for the TSX that are compatible to the 2003-2005 Accord and for 2004-2007 Acura TL. I have the Brembo BBK from Brembo and not the factory Brembo from Acura.

Ok...cool!

That close up pic of the rim is sweet!

The straight on shot with the skylight is my favorite.

Which pic is your fav?

I kinda like the straight shot because of the backdrop of the lights.
But I mostly into night shot. So I will have one of my friend take some night shot soon. I have a good spot in mind. So will post in a few weeks.

Nice!

Love night shots but my point and shoot can't support it.

I think my SSM CL looks the best in the night time or at sunset.
