Lowered TL

So i finally bought the Tein coilovers from heeltoe and got them installed a few nights ago. Think it turned out well. I just followed the Aspec instructions and a few DIY's on here and found it relatively easy.

Wow, looks good even without the whole aspec package. I have a base TL without aspec too and planning to drop it soon. Did you install it with camber kits too ?

Dropped car taken on grass doesn't count. You need to blackout the headlight properly cause the tint will hinder the light output of your headlights. Otherwise, the car looks good!

mrn22: im from st pete, went to USF for a couple years now im up in Gainesville.

and i wanna get those internally blacked out front and back lights i just need to find a good deal. Let me know if anyone had any for sale!

and no i didn't install camber kits yet. i have the teins set above the 1" mark that it says to put them at so i figured if i wasn't going to be slamming it i would be ok, is this true?

Congrats! I would love to get a set of TEIN coils on my car. Did you get the new revised Basics or the SS?
