sharing a pic of my car from california acurafest

just wanted to share a picture of my ride courtesy of j.ly photography.



this past weekend cali had Acurafest out past fresno at an indian casino turn out was sick and johnny has some mad camera skills. his roln shots are awesome! he drove on by me took a single pic within a few seconds and it came out sweet.

Is that a base a-spec front?
It's a little dark around that area so can't fully tell... but I notice there is some 'flare' at the tip...

Gorgeous! I'm DYING to get some rolling shots of mine...just ordered a 20MM set of spacers myself...gonna sit pretty flush here. Thinkin about getting a fender roller, but after my initial attempt, I think I can do it with a broom handle and hairdryer, so far so good, will have to do more now.

i dont know how to "multi quote"??

Thanks Steven Bell! The real thanks goes to Johnny Ly for havn some dope ass cameras and taking his time out to snap shots of all of us as we cruised on up to the Casino.


o4Komodo - I just have the stock type S body kit on currently... I want to go lower but if I do I will have to remove the mud gurads as they already scrape over some of the larger speed bumps

rockstar143 - sweet im guna have to see how your rims sit once you get some spacers! my rears are pretty flush since im staggered I wana push them a little more but i know I will have to roll the fenders in a bit as i can barely squeeze a finger in as they sit now.

Thanks jwrong626

CLto theTL32 - Thanks man yea the mods removed the link and combined all in one thread but I think Jonny got them all back in one new link and 777mycoolangelo posted it.

777mycoolangelo - haha yea man that was a fun trip can't wait till we do it again i drank a bit but luckily we had those rooms at the casino to sleep it off till the next morning! How to i get ahold of mike at ATLP?? he might not like me since I have XLR8 exhaust lolz

VQPower37 - thanks man CBP is a great color i had a guy in a stock WDP TL-S roll up next to me yesterday and asked if I had it custom painted cuz he had never seen this color before... it was evening time and CBP looks sweet in low light

And to multi-quote,click the button to the right of "quote" (it looks like a piece of paper with a green dot at the bottom) After you've selected all the messages you want to quote, click "quote" on the last message.

to use multi quote, click the green little dot on everyone's post that you want to respond to. make sure it changes to red, then click reply. Everyone's comments that you clicked will be copied.

Car looks good.

Thanks! well it just depends on what look you want and how much you want to spend do you want to lower the car? what kind of rims u into? just do your reasearch and look at other cars see what u like and what u dont. you will find lots of people with lots of opinions really whatever way you go you should be fine!

I want more of a luxury-ish style look w/ 19's or 20's on some silver, gunmetal, hyper black, or even possible black chrome colored wheels. Price is important of course, and I've been all through the photo threads trying to find a good match. I've found maybe 5 CBP TL-S with aftermarket rims. Coilovers will be a must for me, because I've scratch my front bumper a couple times carelessly pulling in and out of my driveway. AMAZING PICTURE ONCE AGAIN!!x2

^^^Dude these pics are sick!! I love your Willows in this pic!! Honestly I am not trying to buy new because the numbers for offsets get confusing when searching all the wheel websites. This is not including figuring out size tire, not to mention if they are going to be a staggered set. I dont want to spend more than $2K-ish for the wheel/tire setup. I like how the MRR HR2's look on the 3G TL. Well, I will def hit you up when I eventually get my coilovers. I've been looking all through AZ about coilover installs and some going bad, but good to know I'll have someone to walk me through it!
