Spring 2009 Starter Thread! Toronto!

Spring of 2009, put everything together, with lots more to come! Big ups to my boy Q for the photos!

















Next: Definately going more slammed.

Can anyone local here help with clearing headlights?

Please tell me that's before the SS' were put on.

If not, you're turning the height adjusting rings in the wrong direction

Looks good man but lower it!

Spring is definately here, but still too cold to be out for too long. I'm around Markham / North York, yourself? I might've seen your LED's before. On Steeles?

Awesome, Adrian, your thread has attracted a lot of the Toronto/GTA-folks.
Never seen this many in one thread before.

I might show up. Not sure about it. Probably will.
My TL is a mess right now though... hmn.

Regarding your headlights. I might be able to help. I'm located in Kitchener, though. But I venture to Toronto/GTA about every week.

Acurazine is your best bet.
Unless you can find some dedicated London tuner-forum.
Or... you can check out "Toronto Accords". It's mainly an Accord forum as suggested by the name--but they have a TL/CL section---that part of the forum is near dead, though.

Nice. Very nice. Now all you need are A-Spec sides.

I Think Ive seen your car at least twice in the markham area. Not too many running around with the Tein decal on the windshield lol

hey what's up boys...I just picked up a TL last week and I wanna get started ASAP on this car, but I'm wondering where you guys pick up all your parts from? I've owned a civic for the past 6 years and everything was so easily attainable for civics but I find myself completely lost with TLs. Where can I pick up an A-spec kit for starters? Oh and what kind of suspension are most of you rolling with?

Look forward to dealing with you all in the future...

TORONTO STAND UP! LOL

I love that there a quite a few of us, where are the meets and when?

I am really feeling the clean look and I think sides would really complete your car! I'm representing for SSM crew also, I will never go back to black!

To answer the question above I picked up my A-spec Kit from the dealership. You can get better deals with the group buys, but you will be paying for shipping/duties and all that. I got a hook up so I went with the dealership. It's still sitting in my basement, trying to build some nerve to try and do it myself.
