newbie hooking up Type S

Hey whats up fellow TL ers,

I have been reading for a little while now. And all of you have great insight regarding the TL. Well not all of you but nevertheless I always get a kick out of reading some of the questions and the replys. What I am really writing for is to get your opinion on my homemade grill and my cleared headlights with hyperwhite cornerbulbs. There will be alot more to come in the next few days. I will be posting other pics soon. You know know rims, headers, exhaust, intake etc. Let me know what you guys think.

I think you need to either retake the picture away from the Christmas tree or buy a new camera!

Note to self: Skip the camera phone for another year or so to let technology catch up...

Just kidding...From what I can see through your phone camera's beer goggles, it looks phat. Or, wait, is that skinny? I dunno...

Do you need help with clearing your corners and making the homemade grill. I don't understand the question. It sounds like you need help but the picture shows it already done....

From what I can see it looks good. I've been meaning to do a grill, just haven't had the time.

Anyway, good job.

Looks pretty sweet. This is the first time I've seen a home made grill on a 2002+ model. Nice job. Please post better pics.

ok guy's here's the deal I just through on some 19inch RH Evolution GT 5 rims with eibach adjustable coilovers looks sweet. Slight rub on the rear wheel wells though. Tomorrow I'm gonna roll the rear fenders damn acura's, wheel wells are so small. My buddy just put 22 inch Lowenharts on his G35 coupe and here I am struggling with 19x8. Anyway thanks for the feedback guys more pics tomorrow. In the mean time here's a list of my current mods 19x8 RH evo RT5. Eibach adjustable coilovers. Eibach front and rear sways. Comptech headers. Comptech axelback exhaust. AEM CAI. Comptech front tower brace. cleared head lights. Hyper white bulbs all around inside and out. custom mesh grill(Needs More Work) . Blackwood dash kit. OEM spoiler kit with factory wing. 20% tint all around. Color is AGP

hey njtls I think just rolling the fenders will suffice and maybe a little adjustment of the coilovers. I try to get the pics as soon as possible.
