My TL

http://www.pbase.com/slntsam

I took some pics yesterday after I washed the rust check film off my car. I was going to turn it around and take some pictures of the back without pointing the camera into the sun but the battery on my camera died before I could do that.

Looks like all the other TL's except this one is all mine. :smokin: :smokin:

Good pictures. And, I like those nightview pics, too.

Wanna tell where it was? Thanks.

Hey Slntsam,
I got my SSM last Tuesday, currently 700Kms, I noticed you got your TL rust checked, I've rust checked all my previous vehicles but I was wondering if it is safe for the TL, as the rust check does distort the foam rubber seals under the hood.
If I do my TL it will be this fall, the stuff is good but difficult to clean.
Your comments are appreciated!

The night pics? They were taken from my balcony in Toronto (North York)

Thanks for the kind words...I think the last of the night pics is the clearest. I just wanted to see if I could do it when I was taking those, I'll try it again sometime soon.

My next target is lightning...hopefully tonight I'll get some.

Hmm...I figured it would be safe. I didn't give that much thought though. This is my first experience with Rust Check as my Prelude had that wax based yellow gunk on it. I'll never get that stuff again.

I'll let you know how it goes. I only got it a few days ago.

Yeah I wish that wasn't a requirement here. I know it's not a requirement in some other canadian provinces and most places in the states it seems.

Man, thanks for your confirmation.

While seeing your pics, I thought they're looking like "North York"... I cannot believe it truly is. OMG. I'm not sure if my ex-GF is still out there... :o

Also, if you shot those over your balcony, I may know where you're, too...

Haha, no need to guess, the intersection is part of the title of the pics! At least they used to be.

That Intersection is the corner of Kenneth and Olive in the Yonge/Finch area.
