Thanks man! I actually aimed for light orange color, but it came out darker. Cause i gave them couple more coat. I didn't like them at first until i noticed it turn into orange under light. It looks kinda redish without light. I like it now.

I washed and polished my TL yesterday! I also installed CCFL license plate light. They are bright as hell!!! I ordered another one for trunk. oh and i put my stockies back on for winter. I hate snow...












Here are comparison pics of regular LED bulb and CCFL. First one is regular LED and rest are CCFL.

You raised it up? I remember your AM was pretty low.

I've seen your TL though. Are you going to go Great falls meet?

Thanks a lot! I see people behind me snap pics of plate. I don't really care though.

Shit Henry, I didnt realize you had a build thread, or that you modded it this much.

The brakes look great. Any plans for the rear? You're going to the Great Falls meet Jan 13th, right?

Thanks Morgan!!! I've been coming long way modding TL!!

I always liked STI and G35's rear Brembo, but no way i can make them fit in TL. I'm thinking just getting Brembo covers and paint them for rear. We'll see.

Yeah i'm going to Great falls meet! I can't wait to see all the other cars and fellow members!!

GORGEOUS shots! #1 and #7 are my favorites

The only thing I can think of is removing the front plate and holder for pictures. It clutters the front of the car. Besides that, just practice and get comfortable with the camera!
