Question Which one to buy?

Can someone tell me what I should buy. I have a budget of 1,000 dollars and I want to get the OEM bodykit. Do you think I should get that or spend the money on something else, like an aftermarket stereo. Can't anyone here show pics of their aftermarket stereo in their TLS. Thanks!

Cool



Get the headers. 30 wheel HP for that money is a great deal...

I'd say go for the body kit. You'll get more enjoyment out of that than anything else. The factory stero sounds fine to me (may be because I'm not much of an audiophile)..

You've already seen my body kit and how it looks on the car...

If I was you, I probably go with the OEM body kit(I seen it before, it look gorgeous and fit better), plus 20% tint all the way around. You tune your TL_TypeS into a Beast man !!!!

Hey man, I saw you in the IS300 forum. Still deciding which to get. Hmmm... get the TLS man, the IS300 out the door price is a rip off. You can get a fully loaded TLS w/o navigation for 32K including taxes.


Since the majority saids I should get the kit, the kit it is. I am going to order now. Hopefully, I can get the kit on before the Park Ave meet.

I'm going to test drive the TypeS tomorrow, and will keep you posted. Can't wait any longer, since I heard so many good stuff about this car. TypeS here I come !!!!!

Nothing beats the look of lowering your car with springs and a OEM body kit on!

Question

It all depends on YOUR preference - show or go. Personally, I would spend my money on the "go". I am more into performance than looks.
