New TL owner as of 01/14/2012!!

FINALLY!!!! It's been a long time coming but I finally got hands on a 04 TL. 6MT, ABP, Navi, came with the tint...not sure what % but it's dark enough to were I don't need to make any adjustments. Also came with the aftermarket truck lip spoiler. Already in love with her but I will make a few mods. Wheels, A-spec kit, exhaust, LED's, fog lights, engine performance, etc. Glad to be apart of the AcuraZine movement. Not sure how to upload photos yet, but just like any other Third Gen TL...she looks damn good!!

Welcome!

Whenever you get enough dough, the A SPEC kit is the best aesthetic mod for the TL!

I prefer photobucket, mainly because its all I've ever used and its easy. Join, browse for image on your computer, upload, copy [IMG] link, paste in thread.

Did it come with the 105K timing belt done? Hope so.

Congrats Welcome to AZ! Check out the 3G garage for tons of info. Also register your TL at www.myacura.com in the USA or https://www.myacura.acura.ca/ in Canada. Save your Navi and Radio codes there. Check for any recalls your TL may need.

Congrats!! That's the day after I bought mine! 112 isn't very high, especially with the MT. You'll get plenty of enjoyment with her. If it hasn't been done, get the 105k service done before your mods.

I feel you...just make it work for you, ya know. All in all it's still a TL!! If push comes to shove..I know it can be expensive, but you can always get a fresh new paint job.

Hmmm....Never thought about that. Might have to keep that in mind, only reason I would keep it would be to eliminate the wind noise.
