Thanks JP. I still need to figure out the camera. I just can't capture the car the way I see it in the parking lot.

Ah man thanks for all the comments. As for the wheels they are 19's all around. I really wish the wheels came out more chrome looking than they did. The finish is SBC which means super bright coat. However, they're more of a black chrome painted finish. Oh well I still think that they look sick on my car.

I was at work. Kinda makes that hard to do. I was mainly just playing with the settings trying to get the exposure just right not to mention playing with the special effects filter seen in the last pic.

Wheels are Buddy Club P1 Racing II Plus wheels 19x8.5 38mm offset SBC finish. They do have a 2 peice forged version of this wheel which is just nasty. I would have gone with those if money wasn't an issue. Thanks again for all the comments everyone.

Na man 18's look too small on this car. Always planned on 19's. The car is silver. I just got some over exposure on a couple of the pics but I though it added a different depth to the car. I kinda liked how some of the pics came out. I will probably take some more today/tonight.

Cool. I need to ride in someone else TL. I'm curious how of a difference these different setups( rims, springs, coilovers, RSB) make in different set ups. I was working on the car yesterday and started to feel the bug biting again. Haven't really worked on the car besides oil changes but changing the air filter and brakes was fun. I just wanted something else to do

Hey, new to the board.

Your car looks amazing!

I am just purchasing a TL same color options.

I am curious if you wouldn't mind posting in list form, everything you have done to make your vehicle look this way.

I would really like to emulate what you have done, I think it looks TREMENDOUS! But please dummy it down for me

Thanks so much, and keep up the awesome work.

Looks Great,

Kristian

First off thanks. Everything done to the car is listed in my signature. Also, don't take this wrong but it would be nice if you got your own style and not copied my car to a T. While I know that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery I think everyone would agree that they wouldn't want an identical twin out there of their car.
