Oh no. Between this and the giant wing thread, I'm becoming very worried.

That giant wing/sti seat guy is bad. He comes on here asking questions and then rips into anyone and everyone that has anything to say about it.

lol Tribe - my biggest fear for the future of this particular generation of the vehicle - it's becoming cheap enough that people with no taste can buy them and goof them up. Granted most of these clowns can only afford a TL with 100k miles on it, but still....it does worry me.

I will die a little inside the first time I see one of these beautiful vehicles turned into the Joker-Mobile rolling down the street with wings and stripes and stickers.

I'm just saying! it caught my attention as it was passing. Besides it's cool to see something different, there's been too much uniformity in mods for the TL's

As the resale value of the 3G decreases with the car's age and more people buy them used for less, tasteful modding go down the toilet.

The only car that deserves stripes is a viper or a shelby cobra. Other than that no.

Think your mature statement above about Crestwood has that covered. 61 posts and you're acting like that? You've got some learning to do buddy.

Somebody is losing his Azine rep. I don't know Crestwood enough...but everyone else called you out on this thread (you are now the "wing guy" btw), I have no clue why you picked on him.

this site has been going down its getting worse and worse, if you want to put racing stripes or wings or sti seats in ur luxury car go for it, just dont park next to me, try to think that you are a cool dude, or put the people that have taste and are trying to protect the acura tl's reputation for being a classy car.
go buy an si or a cobalt if you want to do these things, shit even a cavalier would work been seeing alot of riced cavs lately

Well thanks to the guys saying im one of the nicest ones on here! I get singled out but EVERYONE posting in this thread says that a stripe on a TL is ugly. Every TL on this site does not look the same, they are all tastefully done and not over done with cheap ricer shit.
