Nice upgrade. Makes it look much more sporty and classier at the same time.

3.2 TL badges. I put them on when I first got the car about 7 yrs ago. Then I debadged the rear but just left them on the doors.

Thanks for all the comments fellas!

I'll probably be removing the door badges sooner or later. I liked them when I first did it, but now I'm kinda bored with them.

The pic with the chrome wheels is really old. I've had the 02-03 tails for about a year now. I forgot I did that mod.

Looks good.

And I agree with those who say to go a little lower... Get yourself some coils, and go lower. It will look MUCH better.

Thanks, and no I'm not going any lower than it is now. I already scrape the shit out of the bottom of the car. I don't want to slam it.

They are 18x8 btw. I bought them brand new on ebay for $580 shipped!

I love the wheels. Actually looking to get the same wheels. Were the offsets for the new wheels +45? did you have to roll the fenders?
