Get the brake lines... they feel oh so nice!! And they are only 100 bucks...

sways are like $300. If you can do sways do that. But if you want to save money get the brake lines.

I would get the sways just because you are on a limited budget and the sways give you a performance benefit for the money. The tailights look nice, but they are everywhere on the next gen. TL.
I don't know about the brake lines, but they are the cheaper of the three mods. However, does their benefit outweigh the sways benefit? Probably not.

Get the sways. Or just send me the money.

take your pick tails ( I thought you had gotten those already) or the sways but then again if you gotta work with a budget get the tails and save up and get the springs and sways together

Joey, like I told you before, go for the Inspire tails. I'm tired of looking at your ugly-a$$ orange tails.

leave it to you guys on selling me something

hmmm...b/c I am already getting pulleys cheap from my friend who is selling his TL and installing it for me...

I really wanna get the sway...my first choice...I won't be able to get springs and sways at the same time...I'm saving up for the Apexi or NEX Coilovers

then I heard alot of people say that the brake lines are really good too..but my car isn't that old yet..so I think I will hold off

Tails...good argument guys...it's just that so many people have it now...and hey I wanna be different...but I still don't like the ugly yellow tails...so I don't know...

I need more convincing

Why are you going to get sways now when winter is coming. It's not like you are going to take a corner at 50+ mph in the snow. Get the tails now and save your $$$ for the sways and coilovers in the spring/summer.

Get the sway bars. If they are half as good on the TL as they are on the Accord (where everything on the TL seems better compared to the accord, except for interior room), then they are very worth it (grammer?). The TL already looks really nice, and only the people who you are beating in a race would look at your tails.

If you don't get the sways, then get the brake lines. The SS brake lines from Goodridge are getting really good review on the Accord board, since the rubber (or is it silicone) ones tend to contract and expand due to the weather alot (grammer?). Also they'd be a saftey upgrade as long as an upgrade on your handels (I don't care about grammer on this line). I want to do this next to my accord.

The last choice for me would be the Inspire tails. The TL looks good already, and the tails would make it look JDM. The only problem is that you're comparing looks to suspention and saftey upgrades. So that's why I wouldn't go for the tails yet. This makes me a hypocrite since I got clear tails for my accord as my first mod, but I changed all the lighting back to stock. I was ignorant back then. Oh well, after 2 years into the hobby I'm getting a grip on what I'm doing now.
