Looks cool.

Since I'm an old guy, I'm going with stock wheels with a drop. My days of cool wheels are long past lol, but if I was to have cool wheels, they would be deep dished.

Good eye. Katana Inspire 19"'s wrapped in Hankook Ventus V4 215/35ZR19. A drop is not in the near future: Reasons being;
1) the CL isn't my summer ride...its my only ride. A CL dumped in a Toronto winter = good luck getting to work.
2) I have a front lip going on soon and unless i'm planning on using it plow my driveway, stock suspension is a must.
3) If you look closely in the background you can see there is construction on my block and the ends of my driveway have been raised, cracked, pretty much destroyed. (even the ES350 has to be careful) So dump it and get out the ramp?

I dont like the tint, but thats just my opinion. I'm not sure theres many cars that can pull that kind of tint off. But either way, the car looks clean.

I think the wheels and tint look pretty decent on your car. Not exactly my style, but nice. Keep on in the right direction

Minus the rims, that's what our Primrose USED to look like (before the accident).

I got it as a 2nd owner straight from acura at 70k (saw 1 too many cl's that seemed to have taken a recent visit to wal-mart ) and just babied it ever since. That and I let my integra play in the snow most of the winter. :wink:

How's your panels holding up?

Thanks. I try to keep it original. Theres actually a decent amount of CL's where i'm from so I gotta differentiate myself. I mean thats why I bought it instead of an Accord.
