Thanks everyone for the positive feedback. does anyone have any suggestions for taking better rolling shots? i really wanna get better at it, it's actually a lot of fun. if you havent done rolling shots, get some friends together and DEFINITELY try it!

its the 04-06 aspec lip. you can get it from the dealer or some vendors/sponsors on this site

thanks man, not sure the details on the jetta but im pretty sure its a 4-cyl? lol idk

thanks! its not terribly loud unless you push the car hard. interior drone is a bit much, but the exterior note is definitely worth it. if you dont mind a bit of drone, its a great exhaust

thanks, i've always been driving while other people take shots of my car, so i kinda knew the basics already, so im not new to rolling shots, just taking them i am new haha

i've been PMed this question sooo many times, maybe i should just make a thread about it LOL.
here u go: http://www.autozone.com/autozone/acc...er=761575_0_0_

call your local autozone and see if they have it in stock. i didnt call and had to go to 2 locations to find it. ~$10. you drill upwards into the bumper so when u remove it, there are no visible holes . and yes i do have plugs in the front holes cuz it looks hideous without them. if you dont have them you should def pick some up from the dealer

dude, how did you achieve that stance? what camber kit did you use? whats the drop? my car looks very similar to yours, except I have the type-s tails and side markers. I am about to get RV6's new exhaust that came out on saturday. I am getting 4.5 inch tips just like the greddy. nice ride bro, you think about a window spoiler.

i am currently running no camber kit front and rear, so its all natural camber from dropping the car. my specs are around -1.5 degrees in the front and -3 in the rear. my car is sitting on function&form type 1 coilovers for the accord. not sure how much i'm dropped but probably 2.5-3 in. im not a fan of the window spoiler, but my next mod is removing the wing and getting a type-s decklid.. oh and type-s sidemarkers

dude, i have been looking into getting the type-s deck lid, it's like $477 , but the base decklid is like 250- 300, I really want the type-s version cuz its alot larger and more noticeable. u have a nice ride though what are you going to do about the holes from the spoiler?

im gonna take it to a good shop and get the holes filled and painted. prob gonna cost me an arm and a leg so i decided to go the ebay decklid route for now. i'd love a type-s decklid but the price of the part + paint cuz we have AM is just too much

hey Chinkwapin,

very nice exhaust!! actually i am looking at either greedy or tanabe, but mine is tl-s, would it look weird if the gap is too big between the exhaust tip and the bumper? i reeeeally it! wat is the exhaust tip diameter measurement?

which greedy did u buy, btw?

thanks!

its greddy not greedy sorry thats one of my pet peeves

idk what the tip diameter is but i think its something like 4 or 4.5 inches. here is a pic of a car with the type-s aspec rear and the greddy exhaust (not my car)



its the greddy evo 2 exhaust

greddy and tanabe are like polar opposites btw.. tanabe is the closest to stock sounding because it has a mid muffler and a resonator to quiet things down. greddy has neither of these and naturally, it is one of the loudest setups for the TL. if u want a classy, stock like exhaust go for tanabe, and if u want a sporty, deep growl, go for the greddy. since u have type-s u should take a look at atlp quads too.. they are ... i'd get em over the tanabe or greddy if i had a type -s
