Yups! They are actually from a 1/24 Scale Cadillac CTS, but the measurement seems pretty close!

If you look at post #305, I posted some pics of measurements of the wheels and wheel wells that fellow AZ member Royce sent me!

Here is a pic of the rims I intend to put on my TL!



Depending on what the calipers on the TL look like, I might just use the ones that came on the CTS!


Here is what my real car looks like!

Yep!

I bought the CTX diecast at Walmart for $10!

I might even be able to use the exhaust from the CTX too with a little modification!

Are they the kind that pop off and pop on? Or do you have to glue? How long ago did you buy that? Think they still have them?

I won"t act like Belichick did after the Pats-Colts game when he brushed past Peyton and refused to shake his hand (a$$hole!). I guess you guys won fair and square. DO NOT EXPECT A "GO SILVER" FROM US NBP'ers THOUGH! LOL! Black will be back!

I bought it a few weeks ago. They had all kinds of other diecasts. Take a measuring tape (I have a small keychain one) and make sure they are the right size.

The one I bought was labelled as "20 TIS", TIS being a rim maker. They also had ones labelled "Lexani" there.

Other places to look would be toy stores like Kaybee or Toys-r-us. I think I saw ones labelled "Fast and the Furious" and "Import Tuner" amongst others.

The wheels are not pop off and on for this one. They were glued to a metal bar. I just twisted the tires back and forth in opposite directions to get them off. Might be different for different models though.

Hopefully it will not be too hard to put on the TL!

Happy b-day Buda!

Is the interior color the same for all colors of the tl replicas? Also, which color looks the best? Honest opinions please, disreguarding the color of your real TL.

Yep, shipping to Hawaii from the mainland is Zone 8 via USPS. Shipping from the East coast to the West coast is also Zone 8. Therefore, the shipping cost should be no different.

Not really, I am in NY on the East Cost. Most of the orders were from West cost guys and with the insurance I was 15.00 a car. 10.90 with out the insurance, and my 4 pounds number was pushing it as they are more like 4.5.

Its ok dont worry about it just enjoy them and help me move these last 30

I was glad I could put this together for all of you. Now Help a vendor our and Dont Forget about my Acura Race Pedals and Illuminated Door SIlls. Check the Black Market Section for more Information.

Thanks

So far, from what I have seen, all TL's have Black interior, and all RL's have tan interior.

As far as choice of color, you can see pics in POST #217 in this thread. You might have a hard time getting an unbiased opinion on color as most people would prefer the color of their real TL... Otherwise they wouldn't have bought that color in the first place! Do you not have a Black TL, blackura?

Hmmm.... For some reason, I thought the illuminated sills were only for the 2nd Gen?

How much would it be for a set of sills and a set of pedals (AT) sent to HI?

You get 20.00 off for buying both at the same time so it would be 300.00 Delivered to your door.

Pictures of 'dark gray'

First I must say there some of these don't look the best because I took half of them with the wrong white balance setting on my camera. Dave, feel free to use these in auctions or houwever you wish. Enjoy the 1.6 megs of pics!

Things to note:
- side mirrors fold in
- working suspension
- tilt sunroof
- sunroof visor closes
- tires turn, but not fully
- nagivation screen has map on it
- 'real life' creases in the seats
- center console opens
- correctly colored dials (blue), but in kph, not mph (expected)
