Hey guys, I'm looking for as much support as possible on a project for school. Well not so much a project but a chance at an internship at a advertising firm in the UK, but I learned about it through school. ANNYYYWAAYYSSS on facebook if you could like my page which is "The Real Ring" and follow me on twitter "@The_RealRing" and spread the word it would be really appreciated! Spread the word, I know this community has an incredible ability to do that!

Thanks guys

^ I believe you're the first WDP TL-S to check into this thread. I see quite a few TL-S's around but most of the time it's older people. Have you done any mods to yours?

Lookin good! Tein Super Street?

By the way, I'm selling a set of 235/40/18 Falken Ziex 912. Two of them has 8/32 (80%) and the other two has 9/32 (90%). I'm selling the whole set for 400$. You can get these new for 220$/tire.

Looking good Mitchell! Did you measure your drop for the front and back? Lol Ricky interested in helping install my coils this spring as well?

Arthur how come those aren't factory specs for the tires? How different are they from 235/45/17?

Awesome I'll give you a shout when I'm certain winter is over. I think Myron mentioned we won't need to use air tools since it's mostly plug n' play but if it makes things easier, why not!

I vote you paint them white. It would be a bitch to keep clean but so worth it. oh and get some spacers for teh stock wheels if you aren't getting aftermarket ones. It makes the car look much more agressive and since you are lowered, makes it look kind of stanced. 15mm front and 20mm in the back is safe without rolling of fenders. If you roll fenders, 20mm up front, and 25mm in the back.

White would set it off for sure.

I'm getting bored with my stockies too. I was going to order a set of enkei rpf1 for my winter set up but i figured it's almost spring. I'll just wait until next winter. I've always liked rpf1s ever since.

Agreed I'm not the biggest fan of the stockies look. I want to put my TL-S rims back on. It feels as though winter is almost gone. *knock on wood*

haha what a baller. RPF1 for winter setup and BBS LM for summer. Crazy guy. Maybe you should get some white plastic dip and spray your stock wheels, white on white in teh winter WTF hahaha

I like the stock wheels on a TL, I think they are the best looking out of all of them, except a-spec.

There are quite a few distinct markings from a base to a type-s. TL-S has quads, different tails, projector headlights, trunk lip, smoked rear side markers, slightly flared side skirts, type-s wheels, fogs and a bigger front grille if you're comparing 04-06 base to type-s, and several interior accents.

I just saw on kijiji someone posted they have a smashed 06 TL and they are parting it out. Maybe someone needs the interior pieces. i don't know the color of the interior but maybe it can help someone do a conversion or just replase ripped seats
