How long before u started making modifications...

Hey guys,
I got my TL-S 08 about a month ago and am loving it. I really like how it looks stock but would like to get some rims. I'm thinking of leaving it how it is for awhile and later start by dropping and getting it new shoes

Right now I was wondering how long after u got your TL before you started making modifications to it. Drops, rims, etc.

I like mine stock as well, but I had to get tints on asap. Everything else can wait.

If tint counts, then it's before I got the car.

I started making mods to my Type S BEFORE I BOUGHT IT!!!! I closed on the deal on New Year's eve in 2008. I picked it up the next day-on New Year's Day 2009. My girlfriend and I went to dinner on New Year's eve and talked all night about what to do to it. I took it in for tints the next day (after I picked it up).

Tint after a week and that was going to be it...or I thought...

A week later...maybe just an intake..yeah, that's it, just the intake and I'll be done...

Ohhh, those inside LED's look nice! OK, I'll do those too!

Etc...Etc...Etc...

Oh well, atleast I tried to leave this car alone

Been taking it slow ever since as I'm a poor student who constantly moves cities.
