My New '04 AM TL

I recently purchased my '04 AM Auto TL /w Navi on Dec 22nd. I've been pretty busy with work, but finally had time to fully wash the car and snap some pics of it.

My previous car was a '02 RSX-S, which got totaled, so the TL was the replacement for it.

The first thing I did to my TL was hardwire my Valentine 1. The next couple of things I am looking to get done is the Comptech Rear Sway Bar, A-Spec Lip kit, Rear Decklid Spoiler, A-Spec Suspension, and A-Spec Wheels.

I have posted pics in the photo gallery, below are the links.

Welcome! Great install with the Valentine 1; very clean.

Your car is going to look great with the plans you have. I just got my hands on a set of Gunmetal A-Specs this past summer and I absolutely love them.

Nice man! I am getting the A-spec kit and suspension here in approx. a month. We will need to have ourselves a little AM photoshoot once our cars are both dialed in!

Essentially, that is my car - if it had a manual transmission. Mine is also virtually flawless.

Congrats. Looks great.

Good for you to have found it. Mine is garage kept and even when I was working, I parked in a covered section of the lot (semi-underground). It has never seen snow and I am anal about where I take it and how I park it. Some others on this site have said to people like myself, "it's only a car - get over it", but to them I say screw you. It's MY car and MY property.

Clearly the prior owner of your "new" TL felt the same as I about his property.
