My first TL-S photo shoot
Did a full tune up today on my TL-S..washed,clayed and polished my baby..fixed the gap between the driver side fender and bumpers which was sagging ...seems the tab on my bumper that holds up with 1 screw got ripped off..adjusted my coilover to fully slammed spec just for this photo shoot and since i havent yet posted a picture of my ride on this forum. heres just my plain slammed TL-S..

808 is back at it again. 
sorry it just seems that all you guys are achieving VIP status lol.
very nice ride and i love the slammed look. how is it driving it that slammed though. i'd be scared to hit bumps and driveways.
any other mods other than suspension? i'd invest in an intake next - but it's all up to you. lookin good so far.

i don't know which is more amazing...how clean the engine bay is, or how low your car is.
What coilovers do you have? I've got an '03 Type-s and it would be amazing to be able to bring it that low

Looks awesome!
You can get the same effect w/ replacement springs from Tein specifically for the SS', correct?
What screw? Can it be put back? Difficult?

Screw= sorry to put it more clear ...one of the perce that hold up the coil...i removed the bottom one...I suggest you do not do this only if you don want to risk damaging your suspension...but from my experiences...its been all but good for me so far...
