Fan, nice Type S. I like the murdered out look on the NBP. Nice touch with the Type S badge in the grill. With that look, you might consider clearing the headlights, to get rid of the amber (since it doesn't go with the rest of the car).

Just be careful of the cops with that dark tint.

Nice.

When I had my TL-S, I first had the H&R sports, but wasn't satisfied with the drop...

I upgraded to the H&R Race and was quite pleased with both the drop & ride quality.

I thought the race won't fit on the TL-S.

Clean ride man. Looks great! Do you have the H&R springs on stock shocks? I like the drop, moderate, but not too crazy. How's the handling with those?

That's what I thought when I bought the "SPORTS". But after further search, ATLP comfirm that they do fit. Thats also the same web I bought it from, Here's the Link: http://www.acuratlparts.com/

THEY FIT PERFECT ON BOTH 04-06 TL & 07-08 TL-S.

I Know because I SOLD & INSTALLED The RACE Springs to my Buddies 04 TL.

For PICs of my drop look in my ALBUM or search here on AZ for " Easy come Easy go" thread. or here is my cardomain page link: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3196548

Bronze TE37's huh? 19's are the bomb brother...they fit perfectly on this car!
I was looking into bronze, but ended up with gloss black work emotions, a different direction but I can't say I'm disappoint.

Thank you. I got a good deal painted the grille, install A-Spec kit, smoked tail lights and blinkers.
I think maybe around $ 150 to $ 200 depend on the body shop. If you local I can hook you up.

Thanks, yes H&R spring with stock shocks. The handling much better than before but I want more lower.

Hmm that's what I thought. Anyway I'm going with coilovers instead.

Thanks man...
If you're curious, I'm TEIN SS here.
Not sure HOW slammed you want to go but these are ALMOST all the way down. I know ksport/megan etc go much lower. I have to say though, build quality, ease of use, and the RIDE...can't compare IMO. Had Megans on my RSX and I don't think my 31 year old back could take much more of that harshness, even when set soft.

I don't risk it so I don't get it done. I don't mind wearing shades when it's sunny out.

I used to always give him shit about tinting the windshield... but I sat in his car like 2am and I kid you not it was freaking clear as day... so anyone who talks down on tinting the windshield either has bad eyes or they have not seen it themselves and are just talking out of their ass.

Now if you're worry about tickets then thats a different story lol.

Nice car.

Quick question: How much did it cost you to put on that 3M Clear Bra? I'm driving on the highway 70% of the time and I hate 18 wheelers in Texas.

Thanks. It was $ 200.00 for grille and front lip. When I bought the car already has clear bra on the front bumper and hood.
