First of all let me just say AM FTW!!! I have an AM as well

ok so here goes,

I would say tints first but I see you said you did those.

1) What size are those rims? They look really small imo, you need something a little bigger...I dunno not really feelin the rims, I would get rid of those first.
2) A spec kit
3) drop
4) type s rear sidemarkers
5) debadge and that INCLUDES the TL emblem below your front sidemarker, it looks bad...sorry
6) do something with the headlights. I think they look best cleared and blacked out or cleared and colormatched on an AM
7) not really feelin the red calipers. I know a lot of people do red but I just don't think it matches the AM, try black or colormatch them. I dunno maybe the red is a guy thing?
8) check out the new ATLP aero roof spoiler or the sarona one. LOVE those
9) maybe some 07-08 mirrors?
10) the led's in the front bottom grill? I dunno imo they are kinda ricey but they are ok I guess. Personally I would have done some fogs down there but that's just me.

I could go on all day but I'll stop now. I will say I love what you did with your engine covers, looks clean! Good Job!

bigger rims (A MUST)
clear headlights (any variation u want)
take that damn TL logo off your fender (and debadge the ass if u want)

i agree w/carrie about the calipers... they throw the car off
same with the rear sidemarkers

tints... 20% all around 35% windshield or 35% ALL around

but its ur car so whatevr u like we love...

Thank you! Im still going to keep the calipers because either way im replacing them with brembos so they are red anywayy and the LED's i dunno i liked the way they looked but if you guys have ne ideas on how to set them up differently please let me know as well as the headlights i have no idea what to do to them...... please if you can post some pics of what i should to to the headlight and yes i will get rid oof the badge under the side marker....oh and by the way the rims are 18 inch because any higher i would sacrifice the performance aspect of my car since i like to go real fast..... bigger rims would be too rough a ride..... unless you can suggest something different..........

hmmmm, those are 18's??? They just look small I guess. I had some tsw mondellos on my car before I got my a spec rims, those were 18's too and I thought they looked small. Don't get me wrong I am not a fan of 20's on a TL though.
Anyway, I responded to your PM and I'll send you some pics.

Here is a link to JnC's headlight thread. There are tons of ideas there on what you can do with your headlights and if you don't want to attempt them yourself he does AWESOME work!
