After Three years of ownership..my car is still stock ish in my opinion.. nothing fancy...

i just really fix what is needed vs actually modding it...

stuff like the sagging panel behind the front seats...diy dash cover to crack dash since mines started cracking just really minion stuff and minor touch up...

changing out the positive wire to oem since corrosion was eating it away from previous owner..

i degrease my whole floor carpet.. and pressure wash it off.. so its really clean..

im really picky and particular when it comes to my TL-S

my only mod i would say is ATLPv2 Resonated Exhaust thats about it...





























































custom bumpers are slow progress i've been really busy and havnt gotten time to build my two bumpers...
so hopefully by the end of this year i can get that out and have a good photoshoot with it..
My custom floor mats are being made right now as i speak..so its just a matter of time
then i can start brainstorming on what to do with my ripped seats..

two belts... water pump.. valve cover gaskets.. spark plugs... are my next mods..i have all the parts already just too lazy to do it

other than that enjoy the photos of my Basic CBP TL-S .. i know its not crazy modded like everyone here but i love to share my work..everything is DIY i never let anyone touch my car.. oh and the last two picture is my bagged LS430... in the progress of fender work on it... and Travis' TL in the back

 

I love your progress.

 

Wow....!

 

Looks good dude... I like ... where did you get the dash cover and trim piece?

 

anion rinnnnngs!!!!!!!!!

 

I feel like this colour is more rare than KBP

 

Your car stock still looks better than some modded TL's I see driving around.

 

OP still stock and interior already superb to mine currently Nice CBP my brother!

+1

 

Carbon Bronze has always been MY favorite color

 

me too man!

car loooks very clean and well kept. Interior is magnificent. But fix that rust on your hood

 

the diamond pattern is too much for me.

 

you shut your whore mouth!



but I agree.

 

lol thanks guys!! Finally after years and ownership of a zillion TL's I figure out what I wanted to do for my TL... I'm debating on suede insert for my seats... Or a diamond pattern suede for the insert... My sister is doing all the sewing for me so I'm saving lots of money

Trim oieces I did myself... With polyester fabric and thin padding sewed together by my sister
justtttttin 😂

lol I am.. I was gonna get it painted but I'm waiting to do my front bumper so I can paint the whole front end.. So everything can match.. No worries it will all be fixed

haha nah that's what Justin said about bubbles (My Sc430) until I put the wheels on...

we we drove around htown through the beer festival jamming turning heads with the top down 😂

 

no way I see CBP all the time around where I stay... I used to have a MRP TL

haha thanks!!

thanks



me too second favorite after my MRP

 

here you go anion....v




When is the next time you gona be in town?

 

miss you fool.
i miss bubbles too.
no more drop top in the parkin lot....

 

lmao I hate u!! I saw ur car I regret selling my MRP!... I've been to Houston a lot actually... Acurazine Houston crew hasn't have much meets so I havnt been out there for car reasons... I usually go just to relax and get away from home... Or go enjoy food and tacos

as for the next time I'm not sure... Ima off every weekend I'm down for anything

i know.. We had our fun.. Skipped the acurazine top golf meet just to go beer festival and mess around haha!! I'll take my TL this time so I can blend in if anything

 

Plus I need to go get my fender roller too (O_o)?

 

I dont have it. I had to roll my fenders with a bat.

lets go get some Pho!

 

im down for a pho meet

 

Plush

 

I'm ready ... But then again I'm too lazy ..

 

looks great! i have PMM TL-S as well stock. I gave it to my mom to let her drive past year and it looks worn down lol. now i am getting my mom her own car, i will get time to restore the TL-S back to stock and drop it 1.5in how much did the headlight restoration cost you?

 

he prob did it on his own! Wet sand them and polish the shit out of them. I got mine clear coated, which IMO looks sick

 

Yep he's right I did my headlights .. Sand polish and clear... Testing some clear coat to see how durable it is at the moment..

and i I just bought my second key from Honda.. For 83 bucks cut and programmed... Finally after three years of having one key..

 

So onto the next step..

i didnt know where to start so I started with the rear seats.. Bottom side..

i I started taking all the rings off that was holding the leather down onto the foam cushion thingy..

took awhile .. There were probally 50 rings holding it... First few was terrible then I got the hang of it..







I ended up choosing the same fabric I used for my dash cover to redo my seats... Gonna be busy the next few days with Jury Duty.. We won't start the seats until the weekend I hope...

But it here's a picture of what I'm using... Stay tune


Same as the rest nothing new lol

 

Yay!

 

interesting!

ya'll remember MTV pimp my ride and the interior guy Ish?
lol my favorite guy.

you're Ish

 

Ismael.

 

Congrats on tackling that interior.

 

Sent you a PM anionrings!

 

so when is the next pho meet in Htown?

 

next week, when it gets colder.
