All I gotta say is that those rims and tires make your car look absolutely awesome -- I wish those were the stock rims and tires...

I'm kinda neutral about the silver flames.... and the whitened fencing behind the grill -- but all in all -- your ride looks pretty tight

the flames aren't silver..they are ghost flames that fade into the color of the rims

The door handles have been shaved, I'm sure he has remote door poppers to open the doors.

Astroboy, where did you find performance parts (springs etc.) in Ontario?

I may be looking to get Comptech springs in the Toronto area. Any recommendations?

VAN DAMN! Simply Awesome. I'm glad to see someone else has the n-u-t-s to mod their TL like that. I guess its just you and UniqueTL? BTW I was wondering how the Cusco strut tower bar looked thanks. Nothing but props to you.

Rims look sweet!

I simply love the molded kit

I'm sure most have seen already, but here's some pics from PAA meet. The first 6 or so are of the infamous astroboy car

gotta be honest....not really into the flames....the wheels are tight, and the interior audio hookup is slammin....but the flames kinda dead it a little. Luxury car man...flames belong on a pickup or like a pt cruiser or something.
