2004 TL Ronjon/Proformance Build

Just dropped my 2004 TL (6 M/T Brembo) at proformance:

http://www.proformanceindustries.com/

They are going to install the 3G bodykit from Rondy
http://www.ronjonsportdesign.com/tlkit.html

While we're at it, the whole car is going to be straightened and painted with Nighthawk Black Pearl - but with a little extra pearl to it for a more custom look.

We are going to black out the grill and logos.

We are adding a Tein SS coilover suspension, RacingBrake rotors/pads, the ATLP cat-back and J-pipe

and

Ronjon 19" Vega wheels:
http://www.ronjonsportdesign.com/vega.html

Check back for pictures this week as we progress. I'll try to get some "before" shots up soon.

Not far off. Its not cheap but a lot less than a new car! I only have 59k mi on it (its an 04), runs great but body had taken its share of NY dings and winters. Should be like new again, better than new really

He's on his way home now, the pics are sent to him to post, I think he will get to it tonight. Brace yourself, the "before" pics are kinda scary, lol.

And I meant uploading from my camera. I'll let Carl post them since this is his thread and car.
