New pics with cleared corners

Had a little photo shoot today. I cleared my corners some time ago but it took me forever to show it off. Here you go.

Yeah, I do need to take that off. I keep over looking it. Now that you mention it, I never thought how bad it looks. It will be taken off soon.

BTW, chrome is my preference. I know that there are many on here that don't like it but I think it brings out the chrome theme already established on the car.

Yeah, the amber stays. Wish I could change it. Don't need something else to get a ticket for besides my tint.

Rims are staying too.

You can get silver coated amber bulbs...you don't have to worry about tickets with those!

Looks good Dave
Yeah, the lights...you can get bulbs that are coated with silver on the outside but blink amber. I actually have them in my corners. Let me know if you wanna take a look at them.

Nice, get some chome amber bulb now.

I actually like your rims becuase they're unique, they match the car nicely with the blue insert.

Yeah, that blue insert is nearly an exact match to the color of the car (although it doesn't look like that in the pic) and they are definitely unique. I know some don't like them, but they look really good in person.

Thanks to all for the props. I actually ordered them online but knew that the color of the inserts closely matched. I wanted to be unique, but at the same time I wanted to accent the chrome already on the car. I felt they were a perfect fit. BTW, I ordered chrome inserts as well but never put them in because I get so many compliments when driving it around town, I dont want to swap them out. It looks good with no inserts as well.

Yep, ive seen it with the chrome inserts and no inserts.

I agree that chrome rims bring out our TLs, thats why I got some of my own. Where I live there is lack of chrome wheels, I dont see enough where I live. See it when I have a shoot in the next month. I will have my car done up by then.
