Under the bridge

I haven't snapped decent picture of my WDP TL since I bought it this past may. During my lunch break, I took my Canon G12 and did some location scouting for an upcoming shoot and used this to show the client a location we could use. It's just one pic, i'll try to do a real shoot of her with my canon dslr when I fix up the front. I have the A spec front + accord fogs about to go on before the year ends.

... and yes it needs a drop bad! haha. i know.

Nice photo! I was about to an 'under the bridge' shot but never got around to it---would look nothing like that though.

Your TL looks abnormally high but looks good nonetheless

typically, at least in my area, under the bridge shoots are way too common. but this one goes from 10 stories tall to a few feet above the car in a short distance creating a nice vanishing point.

you mean my car is abnormally stock height. hah. I'm so used to seeing lowered TL's in the photo section that i'm instantly 4x4 status with any stock TL's - mine included.

Well, under that bridge looks nice! Under the Ambassador bridge [bridge connecting Windsor, Ontario, Canada to Detroit, MI, US looks kinda horrid]
There are practically no TLs where I live.
I guess I forgot how a stock height TL looks like. Hahah, nice comment though, had a nice chuckle out of that

Thanks everyone for the warm comments! I'd take off the front plate in a heart beat, but I live in VA. VA peeps are strict!

I haven't had a front plate since the day I brought my TL home. I've gotten pulled over twice for tint and they mention my plate but let me go with a warning. Hopefully they continue to do so

You could try pressing your luck...

i believe its because of the type-s rims on a base tl. i BELIEVE that the type-s rims are 18" as opposed to 17" which will raise the car...where as the type s has a more aggressive suspension setup to counter this increase. (again, i think)
