Talking BeattieWasHere's Progress Thread

Hey Guys,

I've had my car about for about two and a half weeks so far so I figured I would start to document my progress. I don't really have a lot planned for the car as it's my daily driver, but I'm always looking at enhancing the driving experience.

I had been eye-balling TL's for a while before I found this at a dealership about an hour from where I live, just outside of Boston. Saw it had an A-Spec kit on it.. decent mileage and the price was right, so I had to make it mine

Here's the day I picked it up:


Things progressed pretty quick after that.. I already had a Magnaflow resonator and a set of Axis Super Hiro's from a previous car I totaled, so I immediately go those put on..









I got quite the hook up on Dynamat from my work (perks of being a Dynamat dealer ) and hope to lay it fown this weekend and then V3 Triton front directionals which should be here today.

Oh man.. don't even get me started. The whole buying experience was probably the worst I've ever had buying a car and to top it off, I pop the trunk and look inside.. the license plate holder sitting right there. I was furious.

It was well maintained though and I love the car none the less.

Thanks man.

I'd love to, but lowering a car in New England is not an option lol

Looks good so far! WDP is awesome!

What size tires are you running? The sidewalls look pretty beefy.
