07 Type-s and 06 Base photoshoot

Finally got together with my buddy to take pics of the cars (only had the 06 for 8 months and took this long). First shots are group, then solo's of type s, and finally solos of base. All comments are welcome and yes we know we need a drop.

Great photos.

I'm surprised to see that from the photos it appears the stock '06 base TL sits lower than the stock '07 Type-S!

The payment actually starting sloping down ever so slightly where the base TL was positioned. So yeah, it looks that way in the picture but in reality they sit pretty close to each other.

I like the pics. Also a great thread for folks to look at before making a decision on what model they would like to buy. Can't go wrong with either models...

OP, Hey if you guys do decide to drop them, take them at the same spot and with the same positions. hahaha, that would be tight!

Rides are looking sweeeet!

PEACE!

Thanks for the comments. Yeah, both cars will eventually get a drop here very soon.

I'm actually deciding what to buy right now. I am leaning towards the Neuspeed Supercup Kit with the sport springs. djbonsu, it looks like you have that exact kit right now. How's the ride? What perch are you set at?

love the ride....had to play around with the settings a bit at first but i have them dialed in just right now. 19s can make the ride a bit bumpy but not harsh on city roads (chicago) but on the highway its smooth as butter! im dropped on the sport springs on the 2nd perch up front and the lowest perch in the rear.

reference pics can be found here https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-97/koni-super-cup-kit-770334/

Nice pics of nice cars.

So, what is the trim/option spec on the front bumper of the '07...
..."type-S"?
..." '07 base"?
..." '07 A-spec"?
Just so I know what I'm talking about...

The '07 TL-S that pictured has the Type-S bumper on it. Is that what you are asking?
