after some time of taking pics, I finally took a shot Im very satisfied with....



gonna look into getting that 4 point bar for the front, some visors and even a CF lip, but these OEM lips sure takes a good beating.

 

Nice shot kid!!!!!

 

thanks...

 

+1

 

I respect you for having such a dropped car in NYC.. cant wait till I dump mynes..

 

Nice!

AM is the shiit

 

 

Very nice!

 

NIce pic bro

 

Nice bro got anything planned coming up for the tl

 

i always :gheylaugh: when I see people cheating with the good ol driveway shot.

nice car

some critiques: find some place with a less distracting background so that you can isolate the car more. Also, keep in mind your exposure. Your headlight, the whole front side of that house and the reflections off your windshield/hood detract from the pic.

 

thanks for all the comments everyone

 

that driveway is actually made for low cars already lol, my friend with his RSX which u see behind my car, had the driveway custom made since his car is slammed

and I totally understand what u mean about the distracting background thing, im waiting for it to get warmer, so I can actually take way better pics, more sun, more fun.......

 

Car's looking great man, and I like the angle of the shot. Have a mini shoot with your buddy's RSX come spring.

 

Yeap, visors would look hella clean on your car. And those 3g wheels (correct me if im wrong) look nice with your car too.

 

when did you go back to the 3G wheels?

we're you rocking something aftermarket?

 

yeh soon he's also sprayin in that car as well 75/100 shot.....he's a n/a fanatic, so he has that bottle strapped down pretty good...


thanks.....

nah I always had the 3gen wheels or my stock 17's........

 

one of my favorite AM's.. i'll definitely miss this color.

 

^^ miss this color? u painting over your TL?

 

nope. its gonna go byebye by summer

 

I don't wanna be an asshole, but it doesn't even look like your front lip took any abuse at all. Like, you don't drive it around, since NY roads are "hella crazy".

 

me too.

your ride looks good though. post up some pics when you get that 4-point installed - i'm curious as to how low it hangs.

 

trust me bro, u gotta see under that shit, im glad that I bought the offical oem shit, cause that front lip hit some crazy dips......I just tried my best not to drive into any craters, but the bubbles on all 4 of my 17's sure tells the tales....I hit some potholes, that literally bent my stock 17's ....and I love how the OEM lip came painted, the way how they painted it in that layer protective shit, makes it hard to get scratched literally, unless u rubb against a curb, I found out the hardway...but if the paint was cheap, my lip would not have remained in that condition thats it in....



yeh I will, im tryin to secure my oil pan most as possible....either its that 4point, or some thing custom made.....

 

Jdm ur car is one of my fav's on here. Nicely done

 

lol my front lip is another story. it's been in a battlefield. it has a slight dent to the passenger's side near the middle from hitting a cone at what? 25mph? and my oem lip cracked in half from the middle. and oh boy.. you don't wanna see underneath.i can take pics but it won't be a lovely sight

 

thanks bro, that black on black look is OFFICAL!

cracked in half? im sure u had to hit something else, only main thing Im usually worried about is curbs, I cant even open my doors cause the door would slamm against the curb, I always gotta pull out for anyone to get in, pending on what side im parked to the curb, and the curb height. the CITY curbs are the worst.

my heat sheild also departed from the car......

HENRY KEEP THE CAR BRO! it looks great man

 

awesome shot man! super clean!

 

i love the all amber corners.. imma do that

 

great news guys, I've been asked to get my first feature on website, full photoshoot, I cant wait, but of course, I will, cause I still want to add a couple things to my car.....i'll definitely let u guys know how that goes!

 

Oh shit! Thats great news man congrats! Cant wait to see when that goes down ill definitely be staying tuned

 

proper.

 

i know you probably answered this before but what are you lowered on?

 

PM me lol...

 

^ haha wtf? just tell us.

 

believe it or not im on springs with stock struts, pretty comfy, for all those years the stock struts have been on for, doesnt bounce at all, and of course its a pain when I ride into mini craters, thats when the struts act up, but overall, car rides great, I feel safe and confident steppin on the gas when riding left lanes or right lanes even with those sewer drains, and im talkin about our NY highways....

but im definitely changing my suspension this year to my Teins SS's, was gonna get FF TYPE 1's but I need some type of damping. Type 1 has none and I prefer some comfort rather than banging suspension parts together, which would cause them to wear even more....IMO.

 

^just get tein ss' with shorter springs and you can slam just like mike

 

^^too soft

 

nice pic

 

I dont really plan to track the car yet, so I guess I wouldnt reallly mind the softness, also when im riding locally I dont wanna feel like im dribbling as well

 

well, you gotta remember with the Tein SS.. or even basics, the lower you go, the less shock travel it has so.... its gonna suck. haha

might as well stay dropped on springs and shocks... if damping was really of concern, i'd go with megans, BC racing... i'm sure the other brands out there come with damping as well..

but FF1 aren't all that stiff or in your words.. "banging suspension parts together"
