Hi gnuts, if you don't mind me asking where you bought your aero kit from? Dealer or aftermarket? looks like you dropped your ride about an inch too right? nicely done.

the only body kit for the CL is the RonJon kit and the Versus kit which is discontinued i think. This is a custom molded TL aero kit. I'm dropped on tein basic coilovers probably about 2-2.5" or so. All my mods are listed in my Garage: https://acurazine.com/forums/garage/...149-gnuts.html

i bought 01 CL Type S from Ken over the Toronto Accord Forum. He kept it in mint condition. i was going to buy a TL Type S A-spec but once i saw his car, i was like "i've got to buy this". Although the milage was high (186 000) but it drives quite nice. All i had to do was flush the tranny, oil change, shampoo the engine bay, polish and wax.
i need to change a sway bar bushing in the rear. called a few dealers but not in stock. as a temp solution to get rid of the clunking noise, i took the bushing out and layed a few layers of hockey tape inside and put it back. it solved the problem but i'll need to replace it once they have stock.
the front brakes are a little squeaky when not used hard. any help on solving it? it's hawk pads on crossed drilled rotors.
also, the dash board dimmer switch is not working, any idea where i can get one of these?

PaiGow right? I know his car. Get some polyurethane bushings from Performance Improvements. They can get you some Energy Bushings. I wrapped the bar in teflon tape (same as plumbing stuff) many times, then put the greased up bushings on. Never had a squeak again.
I just put on EBC slotted rotors and green stuff pads and i have a squeek too. I duno what it's from.
Do you ever dim your dash lights? I've never touched mine. Not sure on that one.

Was on Hwy 7 and Woodbine Saturday afternoon and saw two Civics and two Integra's (red and a white one of each) done up waiting to make a left. Also at the same intersection saw a WDP TL with green rims, any possible members on here match that description? The green wheels on the WDP looked pretty crazy

nothing wrong with being asian. i'm one too. just don't drive around P-mall. lots of people can't drive there for real. i avoid going there. if i really have to, i drive like a granny and try as much as possible to stay far away from everyone else as they do not check their blindspots. a lady reversed into my old prelude once and it was bright outside too, must be a faulty auto dimming rear view mirror that caused her not to see my bright blue car. another time some guy almost ran me off the road onto incoming traffice because he changed lane before he check his blindspot. he looked after i beep the horn and continued to merge in. i had to swirl quickly into oncoming traffic, slammed the brake and swirl back. damn idiot.
