Must...resist...urge...to (rob bank and) buy...RS5! Damn that thing looks good.

 

I know
Something different. Details are crazy as hell

 

Did another run again
Same place always, emtpy tank, at night

Usually
0-60 is 5.9 sec
and least I saw with 0-90 today was 12.9 sec
0-100 / 15.6

I had to let the pedal go because of spin


and 4th gear run

.

 

96 orange leds came today



That cobra was $30, couldn't stop

Fastlane for friend, now they are smaller I guess



LED on left







Not much much brighter but ok
And color is way better



No I didn't receive the resistor yet
and don't know why the heck they charged 8$ for the shipping of that tiny beep



Not sure how to do it but
I want the parking lights to light up bright as signals
so when the signals turn on, it will turn off totally and turn back on again






The 2 buttons on the back, they were not lighting up before
After I removed the connection cable of my broken Handsfreelink unit, they started to light up
I thought the bulbs were dead but what the heck does it have to do with HFL...those buttons are not even for HFL

Those 2 on the back still work by the way, some said they don't after you removing the HFL unit but they do...

 

 

I love you and your trunk spoiler!

 

@ the videos....go to a track

nice pix though....am digging the leds

 

Trunk spoiler brothers

No then I would have to start new calcs
but that will happen to, just busy on weekends for now

I will!!! love the leds after replacing the resistor
Coming tomorrow

Anil, bro I will still fill that hit on the bumper, sad it and paint it with clearcoat
but very very light coats
I guess that will prevent noticable color difference, and since it's silver, it will help it too.

Look what I bought


and no more jump starting the TL since 2 days
Don't know how I missed the HFL draining the battery on here

Snowed today









I have the hardwire for the cheap radar but first I will check how good it will work tomorrow. Always at least 2 cops on the way yo work...same places

Meko, hit up a dealership close to you and talk to a guy who fixes the paint chips for the dealership....

the person is usually an independent person who spends couple days at the dealership....I found a guy (via Steve) @ the Toyota dealership who does awesome work and does charge much....Mike (another local guy) had some damage to his rear bumper and the guy at the dealership fixed it for $100....which was repainted the rear bumper to oem standards....so look into it....

if you try to paint a 2x2 area, the paint match is gonna look horrible....

 

Yeah you are right. I know the place that works for the dealershop. Been there for thr MDX before.
Let me talk to them..

 

I have learned this from multiple members on the forum.... "do it once and do it right"

 

^^^ +1

 

but of course none of us that take that approach now used to take that approach. Even now, I have a lot of DERP moments where I realize I shoulda spent a little more money time or effort on something I now have to revisit.

 

I would at least try to paint it if base and clear coat 12oz wasn't $58

What i will do is, fix the hole. That's easy
Take out the bumper for the shop.
And ask how much for just painting it

 

yup do that....

and in my comment about the guy who does the paint work, I meant to write "he doesnt charge too much" as opposed to "he does charge to much" LOL....damn multitasking

 

 

I want...if Richie will not create a better version of our base TL's tips

 

I thought those looked cool...but once my fiancee saw them, she said she despised how they look. She's my artistic director so I scrapped that idea.

I know how to motivate Richie, let's tell him we're going to buy tips from ATLP and slam them on his exhaust. He'll be like...FK NOOOO



Nice job on the resistor, bud.

 

^^^

that is sooo true....haha....

Meko, have you looked into dual tips from a vendor on here called Socal something? I think his quads looks very nice and fit the base well

 

Oh my god hahaha I know right

I agree with that, you know we talked about this on his thread, but if he doesn't make them, I need something.
Today I saw another TL again, and you just can't see that there are exhaust tips

I guess you are talking about this swoosh



But I hate them, they are on the first black list
They look like this



I don't like these Type-S looking ones on a TL
That one in the picture is worst
Type-S is ok since tips continue straight
that porsche looking one is much much better, at least tips are connected and gives the look of the base tip...at least
Wish it wasn't roundish but..

If Richie won't bring up something, porsche is the one I would go + looks different
but I don't want em really really bad...doesn't flow with the bumper

Look at this
ughh lovely

 

Giving BMW a lesson :P

 

fuq yeah !!!

i love me some AM !!!

 

Sexy

I need lower control arm bushings for the front right
I knew it, I was hearing it while making left turns.
Acura said compliance bushing after they checked the car

Told you I guess I need a new suspensions.
After they check the car, everything passes green.. but struts, susp, blah blah, red (fail)

I need to do this mod immediately
Independent Fog Lights WITH Stock Switch
Can someone do it for me
https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/g-029-diy-independent-fog-lights-stock-switch-772633/

 

Looking good, man...been hanging in the ATL for a few days in 28 degree weather. Tomorrow, back to 80 degrees! I'm ready for my shorts and everything again.

 

hahahaha I hate you
It's cold here but at least we had some snow. That I could take love driving the TL at snow.

 

No shit...I don't blame you one bit. I love that I can keep my car clean for 2 weeks straight in Winter time.

 

Ok now you got me
I miss detailing the car

 

Dude, that 5th picture is wallpaper material.

 

Thanks Steven!
So many nice spots for good pictures, feelin like stopping everytime while sking
I love NH
It was beautiful

 

The Aston is so sexy....

 

You should buy one

 

^^^ he has been looking for one

 

uuuuu huh

 

Where did you get your interior LEDs?? They are super bright. Are they 5k or 6k?

 

You're right....I should!!!




Anil is correct!

 

Tell me the last time I was wrong

 

vietxquangstah, they are 15led boards from ebay
I could find the link for you if you want
You know they are not all same
The buyer I use sends 5k boards
Perfect white, just perfect
I tried some other 15led boards from ebay they were 6k

SB
Will find you one

swoosh, bro I got you bad man hold on I am going to ask you something

swoosh, which one would you prefer?
7443

This?

or this?


You actually picked the 96 one but will ask again

 

arggghhh my post got deleted....

well I would prefer the brighter LED....from the pic it looks like both are SMD type LED's. If so, I would go with the 96 LED tower....do check the Wattage rating on them before you buy....

 

Post this in the Great Falls thread. Maybe we can do the mod in the parking lot at the meet lol. I'm sure several people there have done it. I'm only familiar with the 07-08 procedures, but I'm sure 90% of it is the same as the 04-06 DIY.
