I thought about it but it started raining so hard 3 sec after I took that picture, so didn't feel like getting wet. And I am sure the note would be messed up from all the water.

hey anyone got a hook up on alignments? i need one asap b4 next weds, driving to vanc.. pleaseee and thank you!

edmua6

I believe sherwood honda has the cheapest alignment.

myron

+1 on this. And they do lowered cars too. I had the hardest time finding someone to do my alignment on my car after I lowered it. Everyone wanted 100+$ for it, went to sherwood honda and they had a special that day for 50$ haha I think it's 69$ regular price.

Darkness.

They always have specials, I have two friends that work there, Kevin Wong and Darin Deprato, request to have either one of these two guys to do your alignment, if you get Jermane by some chance, your car will be worse than before lol.

I love sherwood honda's alighment rack since its recessed into the ground, my 240 would high center on soo many alignment racks due to how low it was, not the case at Sherwood Honda, plus they give you a full printout with diagrams to show what your alignment was like before and after.

Darkness.

You may recognize their cars from the honda meet. Darin's is the s2k and Kevin's is the Acura CSX.

You'll need to get a membership to access their products. Buy it online for something like $15 and it lasts 6 months or $30 for a year.

No kidding man. Today I was supposed to detail Myron's car. This pushes things back quite a bit

I would like to extend a big thank you to everyone that voted for me and my buddy in the autoobsessed contest. Although we didn't receive the most "Likes", the autoobsessed page generated so much attention from submissions that it reached 400 likes. The contest rules stated that the contestant with the most likes would win a $75 GC. However, if the page were to reach 400 likes, the top 2 contestants would both win. In the end, my buddy and I trailed by a few votes when the contest ended but the page had over 400 likes Thanks for the support guys!

Here's a little something we did last weekend, 04 E60 545i:

tsxsingh

cree led's are supposed to be amazingly bright, i ordered them for my reverse lights, i'll let u know how they are when they come in 3 weeks.. or more since canada post is on full strike

diesel2086

Whats up guys, I'm new to the forum, my name's Prashant, I got a 2005 Acura TL, fully stock except for the rims (19s), I'm hoping to do some work on it this summer once I save up some cash. I live in south side edmonton.

edmua6

Welcome! This forum has all the info you need whether it is for mods, maintenance, etc. Post some pics of your car!

v|nsan|ty

Thanks Ricky! Lol the bike isn't mine though. It's my buddy's.

I have CREE leds for my reverse bulbs. They are pretty good. Significantly better than stock. At night time when I pop it into reverse and look through at my reverse camera, I see two beam of light extending from the reverse lights. I find the light is quite focused in two streams; it isn't dispersed. If you're looking for general brightness, HID reverse lights is probably the best way to go. However, from the DIY it seems like a major pita to do, hence why I stuck with the CREE leds.

For my license plate bulbs, the part number is 168, or at least it is for mine. I have SMD leds in mine. If I remember correctly, they are these ones:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/2x-T10-194-168-W5...ht_2968wt_1144

I find they are sufficiently bright. People say the brightest license plate bulbs would be CCFL bulbs. Myron is running that setup.

riicky

@tsxsingh...any luck with the alignment..?
@diesel...welcome buddy!! i live in south side as well..you probably seen me around...
@vinsanity...thanks for the link and info bro..

Welcome diesel. What kind of wheels are those? Specs?

Lol Myron did you go outside and move your car after you snapped that pic?

myron

yea man I had to leave it at work. The road is even lower than that parking lot so the water would be up to hood. Some people got stuck and got water in their car. I didn't wanna risk that. I left it in the back of the building I was at and got a ride home with a buddy in his cayanne.

so I got offered a CLEAN modded s2000 for trade for my car. I don't know if I should trade and then try selling that s2000, maybe I would have better luck selling the s2000.

diesel2086

@v|nsan|ty they're called "DXR performance" I never heard of them before, but the guy I bought the car off threw them in for like 400 bucks, so I decided to just buy them off him.

Does anyone know if 20" rims would fit on a TL without any problems??

diesel2086

and does anyone know a place to get cleared out headlights for cheap??

edmua6

myron do it! but don't sell the s2k. hahahahah

diesel, what are your plans for teh car?

tsxsingh

@ ricky, yeah i booked it in for tomm, $69! im hearing alot of clanking going on with my suspension, i don't think its my shocks, ball joints you thinkin? whole controller arm maybe? fml damn money pit!

myron

iTrader: (4)

Jbond has 20" on his car. It doens't look bad. Would look better if lowered but offsets and widths is what makes wheels fit or don't fit. So yea 20s fit but it depends on how wide and what offset

myron

iTrader: (4)

Dude I want it and I don't wanna sell it but that would be beyond stupid of me to do that because of the situation that I am in. And guess which one it is?

Hint...... THE ONE IN SANJAY'S PICTURE ABOVE

riicky

@diesel...yes u can put 20s on the TL on stock height. but if ur lowered then u gonna need to roll fenders etc. also the specs matter as well on the 20s. but a lot of the guys dont wanna run 20s cause the sidewall gets really thin and u got a greater chance of cracking/bending the rim with the like edmonton. as for headlights there is no one local that does them, couple people in town did them by them selves...

@myron..smart choice with leaving the car there. and s200..? i dont know man. i think there is a greater chance selling a 4 door car then a 2 door sports car in edmonton but then u never know...hmm flip a coin? lol...

@tsxsingh...oh thats a pretty good deal. i gotta book my mine in as well before shes eats the tires up! clanking noise could be number of things...good luck...

In 2 weeks I am gonna lower the price of my car that's for sale. 05 with cleared headlights and zkw-r lenses and switchbacks. I might consider swapping my headlights with you if you are interested. I won't say how much I want for a swap yet but I will let you know. If you are interested off course.
