like that, uh, no. Get the body color A-spec kit, the two tone looks . If you want the two tone, the only recommendation I have is that you should go to a paint shop and have them spray the kit with a CF design, also loose the moonroof spoiler.

Is it a nice clean TL? Yeah. Aspec looks good? Yeah. However, Maybe its just on my phone but I have to look closely to even tell that this car has the two-tone. I'm not a fan of that color anyway.

i saw a 350z pearl white with the bottom all black just like this car. the rims were pitch black and it looked awesome. i thinks it would look good on a TL if it had a similar makeover. it would only look good on wdp TL's.

I like the rims. The overall look is decent but I see a teenager or early 20 something driving a car like that.
Personally I'm not a fan of the body kits. I like the lip spoiler that comes with the 07-08 TLS more than the "wing" types.

I think I should add that the OP seems to be looking at buying this vehicle as it is an ebay powerseller that is a wholesaler that is selling it. To the OP, don't buy this vehicle, its been raped. The leather for 18K, back and front is in bad shape, and if thats how they treated the interior, the exterior should be in bad shape as well upon closer inspection.

Sorry, but the car looks tacky. How can you take a good looking car and turn it into this? Nice try, but try harder. The TL should not be downgraded in this fashion.
On this car I see an NBP TL (A-spec kit), TSX (windshield wipers) and the original 04 TL with gunmetal A-spec rims.

Also, the airbag from the steering wheel seems like it popped out before. Also seems like the secondary key and valet key is lost.

Rofl anyone notice there are no floor mats and the leather seats for a car with only 18K miles look like they were destroyed.

skirts need to be blended and the moonroof needs to go.

Sorry...but that car is the opposite of clean. Did someone get a deal on the wrong color a-spec kit? Lose the wing and lose the wind deflector and then paint the a-spec kit the sae color as the car.

No way, I already have a TL. It's my buddy who came across it on ebay. For the record, I actually think it looks horrible. Just wanted to hear what AZ had to say about it.

I don't mind the black A-Spec, I mind the terrible looking interior.

The car looks nice & clean from the outside ... even though I am not a fan of the gray color cuz it looks kind of dirty all the time ... as for the interior, I can't imagine the condition of the seats got so worn ... overall I would recommend Not to buy it ..

looks like someone got a better deal on the nbp aspec and opted to go that route rather then shell out the met anth one...

I would take a complete pass on this one as it is in horrid condition and it aint got no navi

hmm, i like the idea that it's two-toned.. I thought about this before on my WDP. but didn't do that route.. I'd say just get the front black lip on a WDP and that would be clean, w/ CF hood. Only works on WDP tho. =)

Glad to hear it isn't your car.

Its too bland, the whole car just runs together. Sometimes contrast is good...
