Looks like a Chevy Impala in my opinion, I dont get why people clear or black out the housing of theyre headlights, looks like $hit, civics and accords are much better for that kind of job, i thought we were driving luxury cars?

They are too showy for ME. Just like the 5% tint...it is too dark for ME(I have 20%). Honestly I think those rims and 5% tint are the best combo for a NBP TL but if I wouldn't do it. If I drove that car I would feel like a gangster and get so over confident. Short anecdote: Rap music does this to me...I'll listen to it before I workout to help get me get energized and aggressive but if I listen to it in times of leisure I catch myself feeling like a badass when I know I'm just some stupid spoiled kid from the city. Believe me, if I thought/knew I was a bad ass I would probably go with what he has. Just because of the vibe I get from the dark tint and shiny wheels, I wouldn't go that direction because of how it would effect my persona.
I'm not implying XxxboboxXX lets the tint or rims on his car make him feel or act any differently. Or maybe they make him feel humble and lucky for being so fortunate to own a nice car at a young age. Or maybe he is a "gangster" ? For me it will be TL-S rims and 20% all around. To each his own. Wow what a rant.
Another con to them is 19inch chrome rims attract too much attention(in my opinion...or mabe that is what he is going for) and the tint hinders my view at night.
Either way, it is a classy looking car.
XxxboboxxX, what kind of exhaust are you looking at? Just curious.

Just a rant about why I went with 20% tint and want Type S wheels as opposed to the more aesthetically pleasing but less practical 5% tint and 19 chrome rims. It was kinda lame but oh well...

thats on of the last things i think about when i see my car....i think everyone will agree that nothing ties together the exterior looks of the TL better then cleared or blacked out headlights... Withe the OEm Kit RIms etc. a wdp, abp, or almost an other color looks 100% better with cleared headlights....and too me a nbp or even maybe a ssm looks bad ass with blacked and cleared headlight housing...if you were to see the car in person the effect is rather stunning....
on a sidenote....anyone interested in buying this puppy

Why are you selling? I thought you just got it after the crash and were looking forward to finishing moding a TL because you didn't get to complete your ssm? I was looking forward to pics of the stero set up and seeing that car with bolt ons and a SC. What is the deal?

I'm sure you know most of what I'm goin to say seeing as to how I'm pretty new to the whole car scene...but...If you had some light weight 17's and sticky tires as opposed to those 19's to go along with the blower and the bolt ons...you would easily run high 13's. Although, your system is probably heavy...maybe more like 14 flat in the quarter mile. That is just me speculating. I'm not professing to be a know it all about this but I think those are accurate projected numbers. Please correct me if I'm way off base. Pure Adrenaline runs 14.5 quarter mile @ 99 mph with his 18's. He could hit 14 flat with his OEM TL-S rims going 99. He only has I/H/P. You could get the nicest struts and sway bars to go along with your drop but it will never handle like RWD so if that is what you want get something else(duno if S4 is RWD?). 14 flat 1/4 miles aren't bad...That is just my unrequested

Ever think about doing black chrome wheels with a polished/chrome lip? Juz a thought.

brothers from different mothers?
my tl-s has got a similar setup as yours, though I didn't go for the whole blacked out look,... and aegean blue is my preferred color,... more character imho,... but I've got the 19" speedsters with the ProKit setup as well, though I've got the OEM ground effects and spoiler, I do add the Erebuni rear window spoiler.
Enjoy! (she's a bit dirty here, was on a road trip when this picture was taken)
