I subscribe to this mag. But when i saw this tl i wanted to cry. Love the stereo but not the wheels. For each his own. But i thought you guys would like to see who knows someone might like it and get an idea from it.

dayam, thats a clean install. I usually dont like chrome or spinners, but those with the white background kinda work with that car. I kinda like it.

 

that stereo =
the wheels =

 

the trunk looks sick.

 

This car is local to my area. He came out one night to the Wed. night meets. The car has a ridiculous amount of aftermarket parts. Nice guy.

I am not a fan of spinners, but they look cool when the car pulls away and the wheels don't spin. It looks like the car is gliding along the road.

 

Is that an aftermarket wood-effect kit? I don't recall seeing anything like that as a dealer option. Regardless, it looks REALLY nice. I'm not really into the whole "Pimp my ride" kind of thing, but that's a very clean install. Very slick...

 

I'm pretty sure this is a from earlier this year, around Feb or so. Anyway you can also view the TL at the Project Two website.

 

i think its been posted a while back, but none the less...its a pretty pimp car

 

very clean...i always liked floaters (not spinners...there is a differnce) anyway.

 

so does these mean i can buy that alpine unit and do the same thing and bring in dvd audio and have aux inputs and so forth?

 

Wheels are nice but kind of clash for some reason, but everything else

 

The wheels look like plates with rims clipped at the edges.

 

I never even thought of floaters for a 3rd gen tl but that actually looks really good. I like it.

 

It was in the Audio, Bluetooth, Electronics & Navigation forum.

Linky

 

I'd have to quote you from that thread:

 

That's how I found the thread. I searched "ugly" and "wheels" in that forum.

 

yupits a

 

never seen this b/f, nice stereo~

 

damn that nice

 

It looks really clean. Nice setup

 

nice int. THe wheels are shit imo. Made it look like a pimpmobile and the TL clearly is not. BTW where is the cup holder?

 

bluenoise, thanks! I searched and couldn't find it. Didn't even think of using "ugly" for a keyword. That's good! lol

 

The Alpine multimedia manager (PXA-H700) is in the center console where the cup holder used to be.

 

Ya, I immediately thought, DAMN, I sure would miss my cupholders!

 

its a clean install, the spinner somehow blend in with the car well. nicely done.

 

Do any or you know how much something like that would cost?

 

yeh i noticed that what i meant to say was where would the cup hold be? Its def essential

 

These are the components installed and considering it took 5 weeks for a custom install, you could say it's a pretty good amount of $$$$$.

MB Quart QSD 210 4" (Center)

The wheels would be nice if there was no white in them. The chrome parts alone would make a nice looking normal wheel.

 

IIRC, he said he spent around $23k . . .

 

Really?!? That's insane!!!

 

our pimp rides... just got pimped?!?! ha love the system, the rims are def more "urban" as one would say.
