It's only because you didn't post comparison pics that people couldn't tell it was dropped. Looks much better now. Dont' say you don't like the cl low or you wouldn't have gone on the mission of lowering it at all...just say it's not worth the cost to lower it any more vs. how happy you are with where it sits now.

Also, the 3G TL wheels are definitely not hard to come by. When I hit "search new posts" I think there might even be a F/S thread on a set.

Other than that, clean looking ride, man. Very nicely done.
Just saw the last post...I think these wheels will look great on the car. Congrats on the purchase!

I like the rims, but I'd lose the center caps, or replace them with some acura emblems or something
