yeah I also saw his car at the UTI meet awhile back. I'm surprised i've never seen him before. I live only 15 minute from GP.
anyways I just got news that the next CCM (Cup Cake Meet) will be in march 8 at Grand Prairie Lone Star Park. Saturday 1-6 pm.
sadly I work saturdays and don't get off until 5. it's about time they bring it back to Dallas, we got no love last year.

I think I've sighted your car around once or twice, with the modded headlights with carbon fiber sides, right?
Not sure if it was at UTI or the Honda-Fetish meet over the summer... I'm too embarrassed to try and park next to y'all with my stock-ness. ![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)

I suggest you two check it out because they only bring it to Dallas once a year, however they skipped Dallas in 2013 due to the summer heat..
@jo yeah I have custom headlights internally glossed black with cleared corners & cf vinyl. White painted O rings, authentic zkw lens with a hybrid projector setup (step shield instead of factory slope style shields) I was at Honda fetish parked in the spectator lot and at UTI parked next to a light pole. there was a super clean silver tl parked next to me lowered on polished xxr or varrstoens

I was at the Honda fetish meet parked next to swampy and a guy from the forum in a legend, tan legend. I forget his name... damn memory. I showed up the UTI meet when it was cancelled but didnt get to make it to the rescheduled one. I drove around the parking lot right before it started raining like "crap... i didnt get the memo i guess" lol I bet your cars nice and quiet now that you got that new tensioner on her eh Quang? We need to get the Dallas CREW up and running again! We also need a chapter leader because there is nobody to set anything up... any takers?

haha since you two never went before you should definitely check it out. the first ccm I attended was back in 2010 in Houston and it was fun. 1,000+ cars. it's a really big organized meet.

Ive done one drain/refill at the dealer back at 85k but waiting for my warranty to go out before change fluids since they can say it failed due to a AM fluid. Just dont want to risk it ya know. Haven't done the pressure switches either... I no longer work for Sewell, so I gotta work on the car in my garage now!
Tyring to open up my own shop with a friend.

EvilJoker, that H&R/Koni setup looks awesome!
I was running H&R Sports springs on stock shocks for about 10k miles, but got tired of hearing all sorts of noises from my worn-out shocks... Just got back from Houston with a used set of Tein SA to try out. If I ever see you around, can I try riding along in your car to see how your combo works?

I'm curious myself! I'm sure it'll ride way better than my current setup; I was interested in the SA for the longest time, for exactly its reputation for comfort!

Well if you've put one set on before then you've got the general knowledge. Ive got tools and a garage if needed
We need to plan a meet soon, this weather is so damn retarted. I might go down for the Houston meet on the 2nd

Yes, the weather is idiotic!
A local meet should definitely be in the works soon; I'd love to take a look at AZ DFW's finest cars! I occasionally go to a TIT meet on Sundays, been to two Cowtown meets (down the street from my school) on Tuesdays, and my friend's car group meets on Friday nights, I believe... I never knew there were so many meets until I started tagging along with him!
I haven't really worked on my suspension... But my two friends have (one of them did the springs replacements very proficiently!), and they're more well-versed in mechanicals than I am - I just like to supervise, observe, and learn from them, lol! The Teins should be a lovely bolt-in, after sliding the old assemblies out. Love that Andy included the Type-S top hats with it!![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Whereabouts are you located, NBP? Maybe an informal meet and greet should happen soon!

Had all 4 in great shape, fixed rash, repainted. Then paint shop stacked them on top of each other and messed up the finish (wouldn't own up to it, long story). I was beyond frustrated at that time so I sold 'em to a wheel refurbishing company. I pretty much broke even IIRC as I sold the tires too since they were the wrong size for the Legend. I picked up another rough set a couple months back though, gotta find the time to refinish these and put them on.

So wife wrecked her PT cruiser. Got about $3000 from the insurance. Looking into getting her an older Acura or Infiniti. Found this but do not know much about 1st gen Acura TL. Also thought about having her join the legend club. Ready GO
Oh and did see a few Acura CL's I considered also.
