So
I traded in my 05 for a 2010 base polished metal matalic.
Looking for advice on some mod's
Got the windows tinted and the radar detector hard wired.
And will be upgrading wheels and tire's next spring.

thanks

Congrats on your new TL, enjoy!

my advice.. look through the threads..

there have been way too many threads about new members asking "what advice can you give me on mods" when there are a about 50 threads about it.. go to the photography section.

NICE I just picked up the same exact one last Wednesday, love the car. Enjoy it

gm991

Yes love the color.
Looks great with the tint.
Not a big fan of the wheels.
18-19 next spring for sure..

The body style grows on you.
Unlike the 3 gen that I liked right away.
From the back it looks down right mean and I love that..

did a search for "what advice can you give me on mods" and nothing came up so I had to post the question, but thx for the advice........

Like Potz said....go to 4G section, Photo Gallery, and look through threads.

I will warn you though...most threads are great examples of what NOT to do to a 4G TL.

Love this car also. The handling is amazing! Sometimes I feel Nascarish, if that's a word.

gm991

Yes they handle great!

Nascarish.......LMAO.....

Next up is rear spoiler and
de-badge or not to de-badge???...thats the question..

most mods that you did to the 05, can apply to the 10.

Welcome GM, congrats on your new ride.

Just look thru some of the Progress Threads in the Photo Section. You'll get plenty of ideas there!

here's a nice one

gm991

I think I will de-dabge the trunk today and I'm ordering the trunk spoiler..
Really want to pick up some new rims and tires, but have to wait. $$
If I go to 18-19's with it fill in the wheel wells more, or is lowering springs the only way? And if I up the the rims size doesn't it effect the speedo accuracy?

TeamAcura

Congrats OP. It will slightly but you will not notice a difference. You will need coilovers or lowering springs to acheive the look you want. Since the 4Gs do come with 18" or 19" wheel options the speedo will have little affect. Same if you're going 20" and if you keep it the same wheel/tire diameter overall.

gm991

If I do lowering springs say a 1-1.5 inch drop do I have to change the shocks and struts?
Or will it not wear them out faster with a minium drop like that?
thanks

TeamAcura

Most folks who go this route have used the OEM shocks. However, it would better to have aftermarket/performace shocks such as KYB, Eibach or Tokico w/ adjustable dampers since the springs are a lot stiffer than OEM springs. You will likely need at the least a rear camber kit to get the alignment within specs or you can run a slight negative camber w/o a camber kit. A lot of people are not.
