Sweeeet!! How'd you chrome your plastic shifter trim!? I must have this!!

Wow you've got lots of Inspire parts!! I'm jealous! That rear spoiler cam must be sweet!! That come in the Inspire spoiler? If so, do you have any pics of the spoiler? I like it better than the stock one.

Thanks for sharing your pics!

Wow! I REALLY like the shifter surround. I tried to do it, but have screwed it up.

I also really dig the door sills. Too bad I can't get my hands on those anymore, looks tight!

I remember the prices on all those items being ass rape. You spent half a fortune just doin this conversion.

JDM spoiler... some $800, sills, screen, lights, wood wheel... that's over a grand. What else? I would have to say 2 grand plus in all those parts... good grief.

I responded to anyone who emailed me. I got some stuff from Tim months ago and the rest from a guy in Japan. This stuff takes time to install and to figure out the differencews between our TL and their Inspire so I am usually working on it when Im not working or in school so sorry if I don't respond. No need to get bent on this but since I do all the work I don't have time to post.

i was just playin with you! I wasn't complaining, your TL is hot. Like the MD work you did on the headunit. how the hell did you even think of that? When you install the camera will it work with our current navi or did you switch that too??

BTW where did you get the fogs and how did you install them?

That is a very sweet ride. I really your mods, top-of-the-line OEM stuff. Looks fantastic. The factory headunit mods look really complicated, what did you have to buy and how did you figure out how to do it?

Your TL definitely Inspires!

F=MA I did spend a lot. More than you think but I want my car to have whatever I like. I plan on keeping this car till it dies unless someone else has other plans. I like technology in cars that look or are OEM, did you see the new Q? I didn't spend 4500 on a suspension, intake, exhaust and header eventhough many have and I think thats fine. I will spend that too when my stock parts are older. To each his own right? Anyway I still have the 10 CD changer, folding mirrors and TV tuner w/sound to attach. I just wanted you to know why I did it.
