Whatz up everyone! I was wondering if anyone in the bay area watched UFC, If so you know there is a good fight going on this Saturday. I was wondering if anyone wanted to meet up in St Pete for a meet? I figured it would be another good way go get together and get to know each other and get our drink on. Some of my friends are getting together so I figured id invite my fellow aziners! Let me know what y'all think.

For anyone wanting to lower their car, I'll be selling my like new Tein S-Tech springs / Tokico blue strut combo soon. It will include the top hat, so easy swap. Parts bought together about a month or so ago, with less than 1k miles on them. Figured I'd let my locals know ahead of time. Locals get priority

I always slammed my cars, but originally, wasn't going to go mod crazy on this one and wanted a lower stance that isn't too low, yet rode like stock. That was why I had gone with the tein/tokico setup. Oh well, mod bug grew on me

Well, my only experience with TEIN is in my friend's MR2 turbo which was pretty heavily modded. And that car handled great, and was fantastic on highways too. I didn't think you could lower a car and maintain a decent ride, but that car proved me wrong.

I'm thinking $550. They have about 1k miles now, and I'll include top hats with them, so it will be a direct swap. No need for spring compressors! At acura now dropping off the car, and it will be 10-12 days, then I'll have to install the coilovers, but pm me if you're interested. Pics can be found here in my progress thread : https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/killersrts-progress-thread-771352/
I kid. Yeah that time frame works out for me, perhaps more towards the end of the month?
Did the car get fixed from the accident? Pics looked pretty bleak
Let me know when you've swapped everything out, and I'll see what I can do!

Thanks for the link. I knew I had seen your thread before. Who can forget Mom working on cars?

Any of you guys interested in cruising to Gainesville? It's about 1.5 hours each way.

Surprisingly good. Just have a ton of dust to clean Other than that, they cleaned and waxed the exterior, and there isn't any visible blemishes. They somehow managed to reuse my trunk and straighten it out. Only a few minor blemishes on the inside, but better than what it was Guy didn't help me out at all with the front dent though
Insurance decided that my receipt for the custom tails wasn't "detailed" enough, so they wouldn't cover the replacement. Still getting a check for the cost of a replacement tail light (and I hope it's an arm and a leg). I'm not sure if it's a coincidence, but my radar detector and factory cd player took a crap. Radar was having issues before it went in, and the cd player issue seems to be a common issue, so it's hard to point fingers. Either way, I'm just glad to have my car back.

Nope. Told me he could have his dent repair guy do it for $100 Unfortunately, I need the left side. Not sure if I'm going to buy another custom left one, or go ahead and sell this one At least I've still got the tinted tails. If weather permits, I'm going to be doing everything to the car tomorrow, so I'll try to take pics of it then
