What's it look like?
i wanna see 1G TL's.
so here are some very amateur shots i took of mine with my iphone.
(the oil spots are not from my car)
here's a pic of the hid's, i don't have any corner lights in bc at night the hid's make the corners sorta "glow" and i think its fine this way.
Got Vents???? Range Rover Vents????
here are my mirrors, my homeboy cut them up and installed the led strips. they are flush now and super sweet.
they look sweet huh?
and super bright...
and yeah i know, its missing the hood. Thats bc the hood is away getting a Skull Treatment. (i've got mixed feedback about the airbrush i'm getting on the hood, but i think its gonna look sweet.) whats yur thoughts about it?

Yea thats dope.
There are JDM power folding mirrors that I have been looking at for a while but I just can't get myself to spend that much for them.
Almost $300 for the mirrors, then you would have to add in wiring and also paint.
It is about a $600 mod in the end.
If I had money like that I would do it but I rather get wheels, drop it, and get a 3.2 bumper.
Wait did I just say that...

dont forget the led signals, add that to the equation.
i must not get it tho
, y does erryone want a 3.2 front bumper?
the only difference i see is that middle bar. i mean if i could pull something off a 3.2 it would b the hubs so i could find me a better selection of wheels.

Yeah, it's like a factory lip compared to the other bumpers.
I really don't like the airbrush, BTW. Vents are cool, since they are actually cut into the fender, and the mirrors are nice.
Here's an old pic:

P.S. And an even older one:

Hey TLin401, you might like these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-9...Q5fAccessories 
Then I have to find a relay.
I looked at them before but I was unsure as to what relay I would be able to use for them.

vipstar, yesterday I was bored shitless and started checking 1st gens on cardomain, which as we all know is full of idiots, but then I came across your car - ironically you joined AZ at the same time. When I came across your car I was really surprised, I like everything except the vents. But it surprised me at how much effort you put in the car with the mirrors and repaint.
thanks.. Mike.

It is a common name and that is understandable. LOLz
OP get some tint and black out your headlights!
I also just noticed how far back your seats are.
Were you sleeping before you took these pics?

x2 You should definitely get some tint. It would look nice and somewhat match the black paint.

your car use to be white i can tell by the fire wall and the engine bay.. thats why i didnt want to change colors on my TL...... what size are thoes rims...? they look like 19s... get some tint all the way around and lower it..
mirrors look pretty clean... but not feeling thoes vents at alllll... but over all ur car looks really clean... about airbrushing on ur hood i personaly wouldnt do it beacuse airbrushing usually goes in lowrider cars..

well, i'm opening a store up in east tn (hopefully soon) and i'ma be carrying Christian Audigier, Paco Chicano, some Ed Hardy, Smet, and True Religion. and I said why not throw an Audigier skull on the hood and use the car as free promotion. the wheels are 20's with 225/30/20 bfg kdw II's, and the car was that silverish gold color.
thanks Dainius for recognizing the hardwork i put into repainting and modding my ride.
the work i did to my ride can be seen at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3330637

well i got bored the other day and decided to finally install my clear bumber lights. i've had them for like a year and never put them in (mainly due to the fact that the car was taken apart for re-painting).
here are some pix.
(yes, i know, i don't have a hood)
and after that the next day i was bored so i decided to do this too.
Don't judge me just bc my interior is duuurrrrty. i plan on doing the center console too when it warms up again. I also plan on buying some new carpet.
yeah i know i'm missing a horn button too. (if someone has an extra one, let me know)
