hey bro i like your car, same year and color as mine...where do you plan on getting a spoiler from? I need one also.

Can you take pics a little further away at kneeling so I can see the gap in the wheels?

Thanks

I plan on eventually getting the tl-s 17" rims.

Looks nice..amazing what a drop can do. But it looks like you should add a camber kit to your future mods list .

Have you done an alignment? It just appears that the rear camber is a little off..I had the same problem with mine, prematurely wore my tires out . (mine was -1.5 or so)

Nice car dude. I never minded the gold/champagne color. I think you could do wonderful thing with the car. Do it wisely though. You should consider a kit for it. It'd be hecka nice too.

yeh it's not really "gold" but more champagne. I know heather mist is more silver, but in person there are other cars that you would call "gold" but not the tl.
