Some quick shots of my KBP TL-S
Not the best shots but here it is anyways...

After taking these pictures I realized my rear is higher than the front. So gotta fix that. I also need to realign my exhaust but havent had time since finals are next week.

Nope not yet. Running 3.5 degree camber in the rear though.

love this color.

The reason your rears look higher than the fronts may be because the road you are on its not perfectly level.

Looks good, you've got to lose that rear license plate frame. The trunk itself already says TL Type-S no need for the frame to say it again IMO. That thing is slammed!

And give it some time, the back will likely come down.

It's like that on other roads too. It's just not really that noticable

Yeah. I'm getting tired of that license plate frame too. I want to find a replacement.

I would but I'm rubbing every time I go up driveways so I don't really want to make matters worse.

From what I read, your supposed to just finger tight all the bolts and have a friend or two hold the mufflers to the desired position and tighten all the bolts from there.

nice pictures man, car looks great. KBP was my second choice behind NBP.

i'm dealing with the same thing with my xlr8 quads, tho i think it's just the way they made them (for me anyway) measurments seem off.

hope you can get yours straight tho. good luck sir!
