Dammit man....every thread I see with your car makes me see the potential I had in my baby...lol. How is the ride? The only reason I got ride of mine was because it wasn't comfortable to drive. I've thought about trading in my M45 for another TL-S. Love your car!!

^ hey donnie! haha im glad my car keeps you thinking about your old TL-S! M45s are dope though! have you been doing anything to it lately??

my car rides pretty good actually... i lowered it down more a few days ago so now im tucking all the tires... the rims sit exactly flush with the fenders just a perfect look IMO.... i added a rear sway bar and that really made the ride feel 10x's better....

I have had this car for 4 years and now 91K miles and still enjoy driving it every day

If you get anotehr TL-S Im sure you will do it proud lol!

^^Haha....yea brother, I love your TL-S! She seriously puts a tear to my eyes, in a good way, every time you start a new post. Damn man, the only I let mine go was because I'm trying to start a family and my TL-S was a rough ride, drone was bad, and the the roads in GA were not friend to low profile tire/wheel combos. Haha....yea I'm set on another TL, mustang, or nsx. She looks great man!

EDIT: Yea no mods on the M45. I had the side windows tinted 20% and the front windshield 32% and I installed my Hoen Endurance yellow fogs on her. Thats it!!! I need another TL..lol!!!

Wow that is an amazing shot. Love everything.

Excuse my ignorance but how exactly does the sway bar help the ride?

thanks kidduce! the main thing a sway bar does is tighten up the rear especially in cornering as you turn the inside wheel with the most weight uses the sway bar to transfer the weight to the outside tire to help keep the car from leaning so much in turns.... i also noticed though it just keeps the rear end tighter over freeway rolls and dips making the car bottom out less.... for $150 one of the best low cost mods available!

haha yea only one pic at a time bro... maybe tomorrow ill do one more the barrels are held together with all the bolts and then they are siliconed in the center to keep em from leaking,... if they were welded then they wouldnt be 3 piece anymore.... basically 2 piece

^ good link ebelp!!

the DRL's are from V-LED I am not sure if they are offering the harness anymore.... you would have to contact them and ask because i know they only made a few limited harnesses... without the harness the lights are so dim you barely see them since the Acrua DRL are half power... so the harness they made bumped it to full power making them very visible...

hit them up see if they have any still.

I am the linkmaster :

http://www.v-leds.com/Headlights-Tai...-p9087945.html

V-LED sells the DRL kit which includes the LED's and harnesses, but they've been out of stock for a long time. Not sure when they'll replenish their stock.
