My TL: '05 AM 6MT

Finally decided to upload and share a few pictures of my car with you guys. Rockin' the stock wheels.. don't hate!

Also, excuse the "noise" in some of the pics.. I need a better camera!

Ride looks really clean; really good shape!

No one will give you heat for rocking stockies.
We're not on the RSX or 350z forums.

Thanks.. so far I've got an XLR8 J-Pipe, Progress RSB (to accent the suspension upgrades) and the AEM V2 intake. I plan on finishing the exhaust and getting the ECU programmed for a bit more power. Other than that, I'm happy with the performance and it's fun to drive on twisty roads now, which is what I really enjoy doing so handling is key.

Thanks. Other than the performance mods I listed earlier, I plan on getting tail lights and wheels at some point and put winter tires on the stock wheels.

Your car looks very clean, I like it. Who did the A-spec install? That's going to be my next mod and I'd like to find someone in the area to help with the install.

Predator, I did the install on the a-spec kit myself. I'm local to the Tampa bay area and I would be happy to help you install the kit.

dgray, I changed my stock (red) rear side markers to the type-s rear side markers.
