Congrats on the purchase. That car looks setup pretty nicely! I know others like to take things much further, but I think your car is pretty much perfect as is. Tint, lowered a little, and aspec kit. There is nothing else you have to do to this Type S :-)

Great find, looks like it has some nice mods already. I'd swap out the springs for something else. The reverse rake would drive me crazy.

Rare color-congrats!



Also, on AcuraZine, we have a Multi-Quote button. It's in the lower right hand corner of each post (the middle icon). It allows you to answer more than one person in a single reply. It will look like Post #6.


I also cleaned up your initial post for you.

Seen a few TL-S around W-S but I dont see them very often. Would enjoy meeting some others around the area, just let me know. Mine is new too the area and I am trying to limit driving it to work no more then 1-2 times a week to keep the miles in check, but is soo much fun to drive.
