sick!!!

love it. this is exactly what i want to do over the summer...

'08 wheels are lookin nice on there ---

:yum: Jessica Alba = Milf Status

LOL and did you wait for that specific scene to take a pic, or did it just haaappen to be like that LOL?

Nice work bro.....

I'm glad to see that the AC controls fit down into the mid console area. I didn't know what the dimensions of the unit were and if it would fit or not. good to know.

Nice.........

I wanted a scene with Alba in a bikini, I just so happened to land on that one :tomato:

LIPSTUH did the work on the AC bezel. You basically have to cut the AC portion of the original non-navi dash as small as you can.

Thanks. I've always been a fan of stock TL wheels. I had the 03 TL-S, 04-06 Base TL, and now the 08's. I had 19's back in the day but LA pot holes are preventing me from upgrading again.

That sub is nice, you can actually use your trunk too!

What happened to your fog light inserts?

Looks great man!

I'm diggin your choice in upgrades.

I wish I could use my trunk!

I like the smoke on the upper clear portion...I got the same.

Looks so good on the SSM CL.

Also...got the same front and rear mids...like the rears hate the perfects up front.

Too bright for my eardrums....! :whyme:

That movie good just for watching her in a bikini the whole time. :thumbsup:

Oh, car looks nice too!

yea my goal was to have a system but with full use of my trunk.

Working on projector fog lights but that project has stalled a bit... *ahem LIPSTUH ahem*

I know how you feel at first, but with all the detailed controls of the PXA I've toned down the highs a bit and they're really nice now. But yea, the Kappas by itself, I feel are better sounding speakers than the Perfects.

I see...going with the projector fogs huh...

Yeah I was going to get this really good 1/2 DIN equalizer that Uncald4 rec. but my plans with the CL have momentarily stalled.

Why did you choose those speakers and sub?

You have such a nice EQ and everything...very clean

Nice headunit, I'd like to get one with good ipod compatability.

oh and those base tl wheels are boss. I love those

nice custom work!

Looking snazzy. I really like the red LEDs from your older thread :thumbsup:

I had the kappas in my old car and LOVED them. So I figured I'd use them again but upgraded the fronts. In all honesty, I think the Kappas produce better sound than the perfects but luckily I have the EQ to adjust it. The sub was given to me and I wanted something to maximize trunk space. I'm happy with it for now but will definitely upgrade so I can push mysystem to its fullpotential.

Thanks fellas!

If and when you upgrade get a hold of me...DO NOT take this personal...but Infinity makes one of the worst tweeters on the market :(

If your every looking into something else I can give you some really good brands that are in the same price as kappa's that will blow you away if you think the those are good.

wow that looks similar to my set up...... interesting...

I was actually looking at boston pro 60's and my shop that i go to would'e had to order it and i was being impatient...do you carry stuff or are you just recommending brands?

ORLY?!?!!? o_O

sweet. I like how clean the temp controls are!

I use to :(

But get those boston Pro 60's. If you think these speakers sound good, those will blow you out of the water. I ran those awhile back. AMAZING SQ! And they can get really loud!

yea these are old school, i'm glad i found a set a while back! :toocool:

i've heard the pro 60'sin person and they sound better than a lot of top brands. I'd say one of the best speakers for your money. One day I'll have a few pieces upgraded, but for now, i'm satisfied.

Great work, I love what you did with your dash

loving the double din up top. great install overall.

Nice work.........

looking good!

Those TL wheels look right at home. Everything looks well done bro. :thumbsup:

Thanks Georgie.

Yea Luis I tink this is my favorite set of TL wheels on my CL. :thumbsup:

The TL rims look nice on a CLS........ Crazy props........

You should throw my type-s rims on there!

Looking Nice !!... Where did you find those AC control nobs ??
