Right Click on the picture and then get the URL. From there use that to post it. The link you have there is just for the page to LOAD the picture you want to post.
Here is the Link and Here is the Picture

i found the brake caliper paint in the Paint Section of PepBoys. i asked last time and the guy said they were out, but this time the manager said that they shifted it from the car section to the Paint section, if that helps any.

yeah there are quite a few young tl'ers on this board. i think this board had a good mix of age in general. the airbox resonator is located under the air filter. it requires the bumper to be removed though.

17 also...dang, lotta lucky kiddies...i got my '99 because the company awarded my dad with a C32 AMG! all my mods are paid by me exept that 90 on a 25mph zone ticket...daddy paid.

Removing the resonator will give you an ugly sound...i tried it and then put it back on. It may sound like a good idea to remove it when you put a short ram or CAI. Then it gies a throaty sound...by which 3/4 of it its given by new intake alone so why da extra work?

I'm 19..act like I'm 14 so I guess I'm a kid too. And I guess I'm a bit spoiled considering I have a '99 TL-P and a '03 TL-S. :o
