New Tl and hungry for some mods

I previously owned a 96 WDP Acura TL which was finished by an idiot driver in New Jersey who rammed into the back of me doing about 40 mph...<IMG SRC="http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL1353/5796080/11444328/230592487.jpg" border="0" alt="Image Hosting by PictureTrail.com"> My initial reaction was to kill the driver but everything worked out pretty well and I had to find another TL... I upgraded to a 2000 Black TL and am very interested in some mods to make the car stand out... Nothing to pricey, but I'm willing to take the step if i really like it.. SO far I'm going to add some fogs, get the TL-S tail lights, clear out the head lights and convert the dash blue

Sounds like a plan. The fogs well there is a DIY here by Songoku and also subtledreamer and the TL-S Tail lights you can find the stock ones on ebay, which is not hard to find. Clearing the headlights well I havent done this one yet but it seems like a biatch to do so I didnt do it. You'd have to bake the headlights to get the seal off and then pop the orange reflector off and then reseal it with some new sealant <---forgot what they used.

Tail lights are ez, fogs seems like hell along with the head lights. But probably just time consuming thats all. If only I knew how to wire the fogs I'd do the fogs already. The head lights well you'll still need an orange bulb anyways but then again I put those Mirror Tint orange Piaa bulbs(40 bux <--sigh, if only white was legal) for my blinkers and I did put the 02-03 tail lights lol so its the same ideal.
