1st pics of my TL

I finally got my TL ready to go on a trip to Washington state and figured should post a pic. This was at a rest stop on the way home:

Looks like CJams from the TSX forums was able to snap a couple more pics of your ride at the Sittin' Pretty meet you attended:

Yup, that is my car. I talked to CJams while I was there. That show was the reason I had to get the car done. I am in a car/truck club up here in western Canada and that was the biggest show around in the northwest. I still have a DC header and some pulleys to go on but I ran out of time. Thanks for the complements guys.

KrayzieDxC - There are 2 2.5 gal tanks behind the rear bumper and the compressor behind the front bumper support. The shocks are modified Tokicos made by Airlift. I am using a Dakota Digital pressure gauge mounted where the CD holder used to be and a set of BMW M5 switches in the center console drink holder modified to backlight green instead of orange. Here are some pics of the install:

Nicest MBP I have seen so far. Oh wait, there was one at the RonJOn meet that had his interior console/ cup holder area/ gueage cluster painted to match the MBP paint on the outside.

Sexy for a MBP..Yes Siiir!

I'm jealous!!!!! Even though I have the 3G TL, I have wanted those Niche Rhine's since I bought a TL....wanna give 'em away, let me know


Where did you get the rims from? I had seen them on a website before, but they don't offer them anymore. I'm definitely still looking for some though.

Davinci27 - It's only air. 180psi of air will make a large hiss, but would not be very spectacular. If it were nitrogen, then that might be an issue.

Thanks for the complements everyone. I picked up the Niche's from someone on the forum who drove a CL.

Readdawg - I did all the work myself. The struts are from Airlift. Here are some links:

Front
Rear

All the other components (tanks, valves, gauges, switches) I sourced from other places.

Later,
Paul

Cozmo - I want it to be a little bit lower. I have some new upper control arms for the front and am going to modify the bushings used in the back. Should be about 3/4" lower I hope.
