Hello from Ohio!

Proper introduction time

What's up, my name is Brian. I'm new to this site, but ran across it after I picked up an 07 type s. Hopefully I can gather lots of useful information here, and meet a few cool people here along the way. If anyone is a member of the r1-forum, I'm on there too, same screen name.

Welcome, I am in Columbus. I have an 08 base-non nav. I could not find a Tl-S in my price range I like. Love the TL, a lot of fun and regardless of it being base, it is fun to drive.

We hit 50 in Columbus yesterday, amazing what a couple hours south can bring.

not sure, that's how it came up on my cell phone

Also, I downloaded the ib auto group app, and it takes me to the browser when I open it. And I'm obviously having some compatibility issues with this site and my Galaxy S4. anybody have some sound advice?

The thread is a little old but I'll check in.

2005 Silver TL Base here. I'm in Akron, OH. Just got the car a month and a half ago.

Only did a few things so far. I can't spend too much money on mods for a while. I know the first thing someone will probably say is A Spec kit or lower it. It's my daily driver and I'm only doing a few cheaper but quality mods to it. Already have all the stuff to clear and blackout the headlights, also got ZKW-R lenes from theretrofitsource.com to swap in while the lights are apart.

I usually don't post any license plate but it's a temp tag that has been expired for a month so I don't see any harm.

Thanks, I have the same color scheme on my prelude. It's funny how things turn out, I was looking at a few colors when shopping for the TL and I wind up getting the EXACT same paint code as my prelude. At least I can get thing painted for both cars at once,lol.

Seems like this turned into a pseudo Ohio introduction thread so here goes. I'm also in Columbus sporting my 04 Anthracite Metallic TL. Haven't personalized it much yet besides an iSimple and remote start. But I've halfway pieced my A-Spec kit together that after that I'll contempt for a little while, hopefully.

Darren I see you already blacked out your grill, but not the Emblem. That is exactly what I plan on doing too. Looks so much cleaner.

I like the looks of the blacked out grille trim with the "A" left chrome as well. It definitely adds a custom appearance without going overboard. Consider doing the same to your silver strip above the license plate. I like it on my RRP. Congrats on the new ride.

Thanks. I originally had the rear silver strip done but when I took the masking tape and paper off it lifted the corner and looked like crap so I just took the rest of the plastidip off that piece. If/when I redo it, I'm going the remove that trim piece and dip it while it's off.
