$15k for a Type-S? Nice find. I've yet to see one under $18k. If anyone is selling one under $17k please hit me up Nonetheless, welcome aboard and congrats on the car!

I know right?!?!?! The guy had it on craigslist for one day, I called him, saw it and handed him the check the next day. I knew it was gonna go fast! And it's SO beautiful! Thanks though!

Wheel gap doesn't bother me much depending on your tire/rim size. I've actually seen 22s on a TL before. That may be too big. Also there's plenty of member pics on here with 20s.

Just browse around and enjoy your stay. I like this forum because everyone jokes around and have fun, though lately I can't tell which section is more uptight (4G or 3G).
Well I'm going to do a lot of looking around first And then I'll ask all of your opinions before I buy! I know there's limitations with the brakes and offset this and blah blah that...(all things this chick knows nothing about, YET) that I have to learn too!

if you don't know what your options are yet, here are some ideas.

1. body kit
2. ebay roof spoiler
3. wheels (like you said)
4. paint calipers (since you are a girl, you should try pink )
5. lower the car
6. modify your headlights or tail lights or both
7. carbon fiber kit
8. ATLP exhaust
9. me

can't think of anything else
1. I really love the body of my car, what kind of kits are there that make it better??? I know, I have the internet in front of me, I should go look myself, right? pfffttt
2. Hmmm...roof spoiler sounds fun!
3. Wheels, FOR SURE
4. PINK is my FAVORITE COLOR! You're a genius
5. Lower it? Whoa...I'll have to think about that one
6. I think I might need to get some pink headlights....hehe
7. There's carbon fiber accents throughout the car...what kind of kit are you talking about? Where would it go and how would it look?
8. I need shinier exhaust pipes!!!!!!!!!!!
9. You??? Will you add value to my ride? HEHEHEHE

I haven't really seen any good aftermarket body kits for any of our cars except for the ron jon, which looks ok. In my opinion, the OEM body kit looks much better.
Pink will look awesome specially since your car is white
About lowering the car, you don't have to go very low but that's up to you
No to your car, but i will add value to you and your life for sure


roof spoiler


interior carbon fiber

Here is a pink car with the Ron Jon kit that others have spoken about.






IMHO, OEM Kits look much better. Here are some shots of the rear and side sills that you are missing.

I don't wanna race either...just go for a nice ride hehe




I went out with Synical over the weekend...the boyfriend took a pic of me...he said I looked like a hooker. Considering the fact that I never get to dress up and go out...I wasn't too bad, right??? You can be honest, lol

I was reading this thread and a few co-workers saw your last pic and they all thought you were a car show model. I had to agree you don't look like a hooker I have seen the women at the NOPI events and they look like hookers.

I am sorry you felt that the guys in the MN forum thread were being overly critical of your car I hope you'll meet up with us at B-dubs in March. We are quite friendly in person I know I was anxious the first time I went to a meet with everybody.

I must say, you cheered me up a little bit ~ Thank you! I never get to go "out on the town" so I thought I'd try to dress up for the club but still be covered up, lol.

I guess I was just a little too sensitive about my car. It's not brand new so duh there's going to be things that aren't perfect I'm strapping on a pair now! Haha

I would LOVE to meet up at a thing like that...only problem is that I'll be in Las Vegas the day you guys are having the meet up...so maybe I can make the next one. How often are they organized?

Yeah, you shouldnt give a S**t at all...just be prepared for the reactions, both GOOD and BAD. Now that the forum has made you feel welcome and gotten you comfortable, take your shoes off and stay awhile...

How's everyone doing? I was gone in Las Vegas and California for a 9 day vacation and now I'm home I missed my car while I was gone! It was hard having it for only a week and having to leave it behind to go ride around in a VW Jetta rental for 9 days, lol.
