I see a car at work in the garage just like that all the time. Same color, kit and rims, didn't notice if it had NJ plates or the other details.

i might do headers and exhaust...but the gains are questionable on a tl-p..

maybe.
thx.

Props on the DIY work, plan to do the same on mine when I get the $$$$$.. Beautiful rims thry are not too agressive but at thge amse time not too casual. they go great with the colour of the car.

good job, I love those rims, my friend has them on his 330Ci. How about tinting your windows, I think it would but the icing on the cake!

Looks Great! What percent of tint did you use? I'm looking into getting mine tinted and like the look of yours.

Well you answered my question that I have been debating to myself. Comptech springs or not? After seeing your ride the answer is YES! My friend has a SC400 and I love the look, the Comptech Springs make our rides look the same, much better. That is the next investment...after I pay of my stereo!

Yes I would get headers with your intake, that would be a definate upgrade. Skip on the exhaust...unless you are interested in the look and or sound, cause you wont get any HP increase - that you would notice at least.

Very many props

You do feel a difference with the CAI and headers in a 99 TL.

Get the 02 tails ASAP!

Nice man.... me likes. I too agree w/ others, need a rear spoile visit the inspired site under acura TL u'll find that it isnt much. I got mine there.

Also, why do his 17's look bigger than our stock 17's? I would like to get comptech springs, but I dont think Im going to change out my rims and want to know if ne one has pics of comptechs w/ stock rim setup?
