Black is so nice when it's clean, but it's damn hard to keep it clean. It's so easy to see every little defect with a dark paint. It doesn't help that I'm lazy as hell too.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I agree. I have an '06 NBP, and I love how it looks ... but the swirl marks that show on it drive me nuts. They aren't so noticable except at night underneath lights. I just spent all afternoon cleaning it and it's looking nice, aside from the swirl marks. (It wouldn't have any if the dealership wouldnt have taken it through their car wash that is *not* a touchless wash) ... If I ever find a way to get rid of the swirl marks I'll be very happy; I tried Mequiers Swirl Remover 2.0, but it didn't seem to do anything.

BTW, excellent pictures! I've got a Nikon DSLR that'll I have to put to use at the TL; I'd taken many pics of my accord,

... It's paint's is in better condition at 150k miles than my new TL was at 1,000.

Hahaha! Reminds me of that commercial:

"No, I'm not a doctor...but I did stay at a Holiday Inn"!!!!!!

Great pics bro! I'm gonna get me that camera now that it's the older version. I can get a serious discount, whereas I almost bought it before regular price when it came out! I love that camera and you can see why!!

I thought it was a black TL and I was gonna say "nice car" until I saw the second picture.

NBP for life!

My favorite color TL's are either RRP or WDP. Although, DMM can look pretty good. :p I have yet to see an all-around good looking NBP.

But yea, WDP is hot.

That pic makes me miss my old car (1998 Accord)... but not that much since I have a TL now! That's a pretty sweet Accord; quite trick indeed. Mine was never anything like that, as far as extensively modified.
