welcome to the forums and congrats on the TL-S. You will find a bunch of info here on the TL, and be careful, our forum has been known to get you moddingyour car, but you already have be caught. For the TL-S, there is a lot you can do:
1. ATLP J-pipe (exhaust system)
2. ATLP Exhaust (exhast system)
3. E-Shift Pro Cat's (exhaust system)
4. AEM Cold Air Intake (engine)
5. UR Under Drive Pulley (engine)
6. Progress Rear Sway Bar (suspension)
7. Tein/Aspec Coilovers (suspension)
8. A-Spec Body kit (exterior)
9. Rims
10. Big Brake kit (stoptech or rotora)
11. Weight Reduction
12. P2R spacers
13. P2R intake Runners

There's a bunch more, but this should have your pockets stretched quite a bit and your TL near around 290 WHP TL-S only gets around 250 WHP

I have yet to hear of an 18r old that can afford all that.

I dont even want to see your list for looks.

I've yet to hear of an 18 year old who could afford an 08 type s, let alone all those mods...unless mommy and daddy bought it for him!?

Financing a TL isn't really that bad if you have a good job.
