Thats why you need to get it all done now since you won't be doing it later. Trust me you want every car to sound good. I don't think I will ever own a car with out the minimum of wheels, suspension, exhaust. In the case of the TL the exhaust needs 3 parts.
What all should be here? Spoiler, side markers, and kit?

^I'll likely take care of the side markers. The only thing I'll need a hand with is the aspec kit. I would actually do that myself even and spare you the time but I'll certainly need an extra set of hands.

^And hope she doesn't notice the new parts on your car after you spend an evening at Jason's house? LOL. You might be able to pull it off for a couple of days...she'll eventually notice.

Paging Brian.........Paging Brian........Forgstar has a new wheel coming out and I think you should do it on your car in an aggressive fitment.
It is called the CF10.......I believe it looks great in textured matte black.
Only would work though if you can fit them with a concave fitment.

i was 'testing the waters' last night with wifey about an exhaust for the TL and it's gonna be a tough one here boys...she's not having any of it. She'll likely be driving the TL for a bit when I get my new car and said she refuses to drive around like that (she thinks it will sound like a civic with the one of the huge pipes on it...Lol). i'm gonna need you to 'work her over' jason

terrible idea. It is much better to do and ask forgiveness later than to try and ask permission to begin with. You don't know this yet how.
I thought she was into cars?

Sounded like a good idea at the time . But yes in hindsight...it was a bad idea and it FAILED miserably.

She is into cars and if it was a V8 she'd be all over it. What ruined it is our neighbor who has an IS350 with exhaust and it sounds like ass (she's convinced it will sounds like that).

Yeah your neighbor probably only has an exhaust. The only time I have heard an exhaust sound good on an IS350 is when you do the exhaust, headers, and mid pipe. Again this would be the equivalent of you doing cat delete, jpipe, exhaust of the true dual nature. I truly believe if she likes V8 sounds and you like V8 sound that you will not be disappointed. We need to get you to meet up with ACCURATEin so you can here his exhaust which is cat delete, stock jpipe since other got ripped off, and single custom titanium HKS exhaust. I am pretty sure you will love the sound and I am confident that the setup I am suggesting will sound very similar.

Yes that would be Eric. Yeah he is not coming to the meet. He is going to petite LeMans in Atlanta, GA. He should be coming it wasn't like I purposely scheduled the conflict was just trying to pick the best date for everyone. Guess you can't please everyone.

Hi Tyler! Thanks for the best wishes. I am doing the 105k service. Plus removing my Intake manifold and cleaning it. Installing the PR2 thermogasket. Replacing the tranny fluid. Changing the oil. blah blah blah. So It's gonna be a long weekend under my car.
What meet? Is there a thread for it? I've been real busy lately so I haven't been on azine for awhile.
Oh. I just looked at CCC's signature.

Jason, 1) you weren't paying attention to the lesson back in elementary education, or 2) your school system failed to teach you guys the proper use. 3) you just dont give a rats ass which way to use these words correctly because you think english is too hardcore.
Which one is it?!
And the sound you've been hearing for the past 3 years is a Trust full titanium exhaust intended for an evo 8. The hks carbon ti exploded off my automatic TL and is RIP.

I guess you can put it that way or you can look at it as if they really care about you they won't be pissed about you having a hobby or two.

Ok that might not be the best idea. You see Eric's car is gutted race car style with a cage and racing seats and no interior. It is hella loud inside that car. Good hella loud but still hella loud.
