Last I heard he was getting them extended further than they are, moo. The ghost flames are awesome and help add something to a plain white carbody.
Maybe it's just me but I don't like the style of that upper tie bar. Looks like all the weight is on those two welds on each side. I'd rather have a solid piece from the tower mount up to that first break where it changes from blue to silver.

damn, thats tight.
So are the spoon calipers going to replace the Brembo calipers? or are they going on the back? Please tell me you didn't get the blue ones.

Looks GREAT Astro.
I’m curious about the LOWER front strut bar.
I know your car is more for SHOW then handling, but have you noticed a difference?
My car seems to stick better in the FRONT then the REAR.
If anything, it needs more help in the back, not the front.
What’s your opinion on this?

robbs car will outhandle your CL no problem.
the balance on his TLS, im sure due to the weight in the back. is much better then a CL.
the rear actually stays planted instead of trying to swing around.

Shawn, I am driving without a license at the moment, and as such, I haven't been pushing the car at all...
granted, the lower tie bar prolly looks like a lot more than it's practical use..same for the rear one that I plan to get...BUT, like Adam said, I would put any amount of money on the fact that my car will outhandle yours, or almost anyone's CL...it's just so balanced, and it just feels glued to the road from 20-145MPH....no drama, just planted to the rd...
