The two Chil-lins
The TL isnt really liking the new sibling, when its late and I am too lazy to put the top up the Acura sits outside. But it will get its sweet revenge when it sits there all winter hiding from the snow/salt

Hi everyone - I'm a first time Acura owner so new to the forum 
Here's my CPO 2009 TSX 6-speed (Grigio/Ebony) I bought from Bloomington Acura in July. So far the only modifications I've gone is a paint match on the grill surround, OEM rear wing, and swapped the shift knob with one from a TL SH-AWD 6-speed.
Stock grill
Stock, no wing
Stock shift knob
With OEM rear wing added
Grill after paint match
Future plans:
Window tint
Winter tires for stock rims (once the snow starts falling)
Aftermarket 17" or 18" wheels with summer tires next spring --- right now the TSW Nurburgring is in the lead

Wheels look good Tim, so since they have a clear on them is that considered a 2 stage or not ? I'm currently dismantling my calipers to get them ready for some color.

They do the cooking for us, so we don't have to worry about Jorge feeding us raw meat again.

So I was driving last night and didn't see a bump in the road and ended up putting a bulge in my front drivers side tire... does anyone have a spare KDW 235/35/19 laying around??? I don't want to buy a brand new set of tires right now as the other 3 are still good...

Pansy I have eaten plenty of burgers with a little pink in the middle and nothings ever happened. As a matters of fact I have cooked most of the time in all the other meets and no one has died yet
I am in for the meet
. Who is going?

Haha I'm dropping him off in St. Cloud Friday since he moves in for college so no worries about that
So my big accomplishment for the summer:
I just washed it for the first time this summer yesterday- the house was the big buy and I spent most of my time putting it together.
17x9 +45 Enkei RPF-1 SBC's on 235/45/17 Hankooks
Tein Basic coilovers (yea, I can go lower, but I don't want to go much lower)
Hawk HPS pads
I need an alignment, anyone know a good, cost effective place in St. Paul/NW burbs?

So I cracked a rim this weekend
I'm having it sent in today to see if it can get repaired.. I'm hoping since they don't make the Ron Jon Inspyres anymore.. I'd have to buy a used one from RJ and refinish it to match

Shit Glow I thought you were dead man!
Your first post in forever and that shitty video is what you contribute. That guy reminds me of Doofy from Scary Movie.

Busy this weekend, and next weekend Saturday - other than that, whens the next gathering gonna be? Haven't seen you guys in a grip!
Besides that, any guys want to work a security gig with me on the 8th? It's from 5pm to 2am - pays $120 cash. We have to guard a stage, protect the mechanical bull (topless I might add) and help the drunks setup tents for a biker rally.
If interested, let me know! I think they are still looking for a couple of guys. You could just roll down there with me if you wanted. If you want to see what it is, google "SCVR chili feed" - its at the Gas Lite bar in Ellsworth, WI
