Wow, that a lot of mods with being a Noobie, but looks good. I would put the Tein SS on first and then the rims because it will look better with a drope first

I have had the car for over a year. I have a lot of the pieces, but I was going to pay someone to put them all on at once. After reading some threads on her I wondered what am I waiting for? I have already order the wheels, I am going to put them on first then do the Teins only because I am taking my car back to the mainland in less than a year so I don't want to deal with taking them back off to ship it

Oh, good deal!

What else will you be doing? I'm putting a 10k down payment on my car, so I needa save up for anything else that I decide to do. My uncle is the service manager at the Acura that I bought this TL from, so he is going to get me in touch with the people on the race team to see if I can get a decent price for CAI, etc.

Any suggestions?

I'm coming from a 2000 Cavalier.... so this is a big change for me.

I bought two extra headlights to take apart and color match the insides to my new wheels. I am also going to put an Aspec kit when I sell my other car. I highly recommend doing searches on anything you want to do. Most of the stuff has been done so you can see how to do it yourself and how it will come out. As far as CAI that is something I would like to do when I do my suspension because I will have the wheels and suspension off so I should be able to put in on through the wheel well. There are a lot of CAI available and a lot of people have done it so it should be fairly easy. I think you will probably be paying about $200-$250 for the equipment.

He's also got the body moldings on the doors... Oh yeah, and I've got to say those mud guards look damn good on that color car. I just took mine off last weekend and am super-glad I did. I didn't prefer the look on my ride (WDP), but I do prefer the look on yours.
