Did you do the nav conversion yourself? Looks like you put a lot of work into it. Very nicely done.

Really nice progress.

And thank you for not putting a TYPE-S badge on your ride. (Even though it could pass visually to the untrained eye.)

thanks, i didn't like them either in the beginning. Nevertheless, where i live, many of the tl's i see when driving have the side moldings so they started to grow on me. I decided to get them in the end

Great car, looks just great. Not a fan of LEDs and door moldings. Is the roof painted or is vinyl? Want to add the vent visors to my car but still thinking about it. Please, put the new suspension in your list before the painting, car looks sweet as is, IMO.
