hey guy/gal

i got my 08 tl type s august 2012 from Hendrick Acura, after looking at like 5 07-08 tl type s that were wdp. we settle for the one with the lowest mileage (47xxx) plus it had a warranty to 100k.

after i got it i already had plan for it. so far this is what i have done to it in the last like 6 months and i think it an good start.

1. vinyl the roof to black
2. yellow vinyl on fog light ( yes i am jdm whore)
3. L.e.d. interior lights + license plate light
4. lower the car ( not yet have d2 coilover but they need work)
5. 18x9.5 +30 rota p45r painted them red.
6. type s a spec lip thanks ack!
7. oem window visor ( not on car yet, waiting to tint first)
8. Xlr8 non resonated quad exhaust
9. soon to tint the windows 35%
10. home made tsuna knot lol
11. muteki neo chrome lug nuts.
12 yakima roof rack (not on car, don't know if i want to run it yet)

take more once the a spec is on, lowered, tinted and window visor put on. it been a tiring 6 months and my pockets are burnt up. hopefully get a good income tax so i can get a j pipe, intake and get camber stuff. and a nice vacation lol.

i know it need moar low, but this my wife car, and kind of waiting till she get done with school to fully slamm the car. i have d2 coilover from a accord, gonna swap out the top hats and run them soon. thanks for the compliment, just getting burned out from work, school, and the short day, and cold nights lol.

ACCURATEin

I love all of these in progress pics where work is being done. Keep them coming!

Can't wait to see the after pics.

And i'm glad there is another wdp enthusiast in the area. Some of the previous enthusiasts around here are no longer enthusiastic haha.

thanks eric, i just like working on cars, either making it fast to making it look fast. everybody should have progress picture with there car half apart lol.

thanks steven bell, i was going for candy red for the wheel, this the best i can do with spray paint lol. since it would of cost me 120 a wheel to get them powder coated and repaired.

i know bee, you just gota be patience, 19" tires aint no joke, they stupid expensive. lol so far i got 2 mix match tires for 75, hopefully get a pair so i can just put it on the car. plus the tires size is a bit much for me, gonna be running 245/40/19 on it. so hopefully it doesn't look so bad.
