the car is trapped in the garage and there's limited space for good pics so these will have to do. these were taken a few hours after i got the hood so as you see that fat ass gap there. anyways it's been properly aligned awhile now.

any lower and i'd be rubbin... with more then 2ppl. already working on that during the winter... with the on going process... also got and EDFC to Reinstall, and a full camber kit along with everything else.

yeah the hood was warpped slightly from storage and shipping. after being in the sun and appling some pressure it straighted itself out and had to realign it properly

Thumbs up

i think your car is FREAKIN SICK!!!!!!!!!, but honestly those rims arent doing ANY justice at all......i think if you threw some black rims on, not rims with a chrome lip style.....i find sum TL members do that, like say sum spoons, i have not seen one TL with a set of SP00Ns, your car already has that race theme......its the rims that you need to complete it, in my opinion.......dam i give you more than enough props for your CF hood, and the housing color(blue) flows pretty well........just imagine ur TL slammed on sum black SP00Nz, that shit would look crazy.......butover all nice FREAKIN CAR..........i praise you for that H00D

If you were to do a carbon fiber trunk, don't put a spoiler on it.

Nah I think you should keep the ASpec spoiler. If anything try and wrap your trunk in CF, but don't get rid of the spoiler. That's what sets your car apart from the other 2nd gen TL's. I bet if you put the spoiler up for sale in the "BM" so many heads would want it.

I'm feeling the ride though....the CF hood looks good on the car. I wish they were still in production, I would def purchase one for myself.....

Those Edge Headers...how's the fitment? Any resonance issues? how long did you have them installed? Updates please........

LOL I didn't see this post b4.

1. No way in hell ANY black wheel would look better than the gold Volks that are on it currently. Black "Spoon" wheels on this color is what wouldn't do it any justice.

2. Its an A-Spec. The blue housings are stock.

Nice work, keep us posted on how the trunk turns out. I'm really impressed by the number of people who have tackled a full nav conversion. That looks like it's no joke...
