It's being relisted on ebay. This was posted before. The kit is pretty ugly. It's hard to imagine the guy that created this kit staring at it from a distance and saying to himself "wow, this looks great!".

Why is it that fiberglass kits never really look smooth? If you look at the back bumper, it's kind of wavy.

I have to agree with you guys, that kit is the choice to go with. I saw that kit and I've closed that page, didn't even look what he got on the TL...thats how bad it looks

Eh, I personally don't like the kit myself it's to riceamatic for me...but to each their own. I could see that car making some 16yr old very happy, as their first ride or something.

HAHA, Apparently the tires have a "sporty sound" and he states that "Kelly Blue book suggested retail- $12,800 - 10,555 High miles" putting this car at $2245. Woah, hold on a second, I bet all those sweet bomb ass awesome mods like that killer body kit would raise the value about $6000. oh wait...

I love how he has to emphasize the rims are "expensive". Makes me overlook everything else.

I can understand the color and body kits are overkilled, but what is wrong with the mileage. yes, mileage is high, but if the car runs fine, and if price is right; there is nothing wrong with that. Even ftty1 has his engine almost 200k and he said it runs smoothly like when he bought it.

this car will probably not sell and if it does the buyer probably doesn't know what a TL is SUPPOSED to look like.
