As requested. After install today but before alignment. Dropped with spacers.

There actually quite a few people on the board that have already done this.

Yes it needed a camber kit in the rear which I put on the Ingalls 2 piece. Actually could use one up front as it was barely out of spec (no adjustment). But they said it's minor and shouldn't cause any additional wear.

That pic looks really good but you really need spacers or bigger wheels.

I would like to do that to my 2014 TL. Can you tell me exactly what products you used, and how for you dropped the front and rear? And the spacers, how big? Looks very nice. Thank you.

Thanks guys. I messaged him on the site. I'm new. I've owned an '08 TL and loved it. I always wanted a manual transmission, and was impressed with the SH-AWD system. Bud I much prefer the previous generation body (weighed less, a little tighter). I bought my car in San Diege and they said it was the last new manual transmission TL for sale in the western USA, and possibly the entire USA. I searched the Acura web site for inventory, and I couldn't find one anywhere near CA except the one I bought. Anyway, it's in the shop now having some paint done and the wheels black chromed. I want to drop it a little now, but not too much. Thanks again. David

Your inbox is full so I haven't been able to reply.

My link to my build is here. It should answer all those questions for you.

I used to own golf 1.8t 4 door gls gti, fully built. Got 5 speeding ticket and one drag racing. 1 speeding left and 1 drag racing, on drag racing ticket they gave me 60 hours community service and 2 years probation . I'm not going to jail. So I slammed it and a good reason to drive slow. Thank you for your thought tho bro's.

And it doesn't make any sense. Also it's spelled KNOW, not NO. And yes I KNOW my sentence is using a double negative.

Spacer

What's up bruh. Nice drop. If you don't mind me asking what size spacer did you run front and back ?
