She's not single. She's in a super happy and committed relationship. All of my replies, comments, quips and jokes are in good fun...as I too, am in a very happy committed relationship.

Carry on.

Sorry, y'all...all day update meeting at work with one of our VP's...laptop CLOSED!!! Then, since didn't work out at lunch, did my jog and workout after. A little AZ time before bed now.



Ain't nobody running me over, gdammit...no affairs, was totally serious about that. I make jokes, and that's it. I ain't no philanderer!

Kait, don't sweat it, I'm sure there are plenty of mechanics that are itching to get their hands on your headlights...

On a serious note, I agree with giving friends the business...but how long is a "long" wait?!?! How long have you already been waiting on the suspension?
Haha. Well, i ordered them over a month ago. I have an appt this Saturday to get them installed. Doesn't seem to be happening since they haven't even been shipped yet...

Next appointment I could get with my busy ass schedule was May 16th or whatever that Saturday is. ::Sigh::

Screws me up because I had an appointment to go get my RonJons April 28th. But I'm not going to put rims before drop. So now that is pushed to the end of May.

Fml.

UPDATE:

Car has been dropped somewhere between 1 and 1.5 inches for now. 3 arm camber kit is on its way to me now. In a few weeks I am going to have that installed and dropped about another inch.

My RJs are on a boat, lol. ETA is about another 2-3 weeks. I'm a patient girl though. They are worth it.

I'm sure there are high res. pics from the menlo meet last night -- I'll wait until those are uploaded to give you guys a better pic.

I think the 2G TSX's is like the 3G TL forum....a lot of people are modding em very very tastefully.....and its a very popular car....more popular than the 4G TL if you ask me....

Kait, what did you do with the handles? I have been thinking of something like that but thought it wouldnt look right on the TL, on your TSX it looks really nice.. I think it helps that the bottom part of the side view mirrors look black/dark as well

2G TSX is more popular to mod than the 4G TL.. or there is more interest from this site and also folks not on here... the 4G TL is like a boat so it seems like most people dont mod it, it would be like moding a lincoln town car

I have couple friends who just got 2g TSX and want to mod it already, I know a few people with 4G TL and they want to know how many people, babies or strollers they can fit into it

Hey there. Nothing! Haha, I guess the tint reflected on the chrome handles to make them look like black chrome. However, it's all stock!

damn, was hoping someone tried something new on the handles, I might have to venture there.. it looked really nice on your white TSX

i might need to black out the headlights and taillights first so it flows.. along with the side markers... damn more work to do

It would look really clean, you are right on that.

And I definitely need to clear out my headlights as well. I have to wait for my wallet to support that idea, though!

I can't even describe it. I don't even feel like I am on coilovers -- at all. It's so smooth, just like stock. It's unreal. Coming from springs on my previous car to this -- wow. Honestly, I like it much better than stock. Obviously turning is much more point on, but I just love the feel of it. When you are driving on regular roads, even bumpy ones, it feels 100% like stock suspension. Only time that you can really tell is when the road is really beaten up and you're constantly up down up down on the coils. But, you have to expect that.

The shop said they lowered it an inch -- I think it's a little lower. Regardless, the tein SS goes around 2.5 low. Can't wait to max it

And why do you say such a thing? I got balls my dude, I got balls.

The only way i wouldn't is if the offset of my wheels don't allow it. I refuse to do much fender work, if any at all.
