lol thats actually what scared me off of doing switchbacks in the front turn signals. I figured if I kept em just amber it wouldn't mess with too much other than when I drive with the parking lights on only. Cuz then all I have to deal with is the DRLS not matching the amber LEDs. But it doesn't bug me too much. I'm sure once everything is all perfect and matched up right it is worth all the work

I love the tailights. Which film did you order from rvinyl.com to get your tailights like this? I also have a 2008 tl base. I want mine to look just like yours. I love your whole thread. Thanks in advance.

alright, thanks. I am new at acurazine. I am about to order the smoked side markers and want to get the smoked tails. How much for a custom kit like that. I love the whole look of your car.

I took some but my iphone makes them and my headlights look yellow for some reason. I just ordered 5000k morimoto bulbs myself to match. let me reassure u that the LEDs I used that paperboy sent me are 5000k pure white, not warm white and not blue white!!! they look awesome and needed new switchbacks and HIDs to match which will be in on Monday. having JNC fix my modded headlights next weekend and will be installing the bulbs then and can't wait!!!! good luck bro and hope I alleviated any worries u may have had.

just about time for some quick updates. headlights are at JnC's being redone in order to adjust my ZKWr's, refurbish my lens', reseal, and also clean up some of the previously done work to them. also ordering my coilovers within the next week hopefully. lastly I've been working on something... not to give too much away but keys just say the CF is going away except for on the roof and in the headlights/tails and being painted body color. will update when I pick up the headlights Sunday and ill leave u with a pic of my grill as it sits now to show the direction I'm going in, just imagine the CF being paint.
and yea that type s cross bar is new and part of the new look lol

Nice Carbon Fiber work on the grill-that's tedious work.

got my headlights back from JNC and installed late lastnight with bluetl04 (huge thanks again brotha!!!). just a quick teaser pic since it was dark out, will post some today once I'm outta work. extremely please with his work. now that the zkws are adjusted I have no more yellowing through the projector, the lens look brand new also. when the lights are on u don't see a single scratch or put, they are gone.
also loving my new hid fogs!!! I have a new drl bulbs coming from vleds to complete the matching color of bulbs, the ijdmtoy xenon white led looks blue so I ordered these (after seeing pics from a fellow member I was sold). they are extremely white without any blue even though they are 6000k. for some reason vleds 6000k match my 5000k HIDs perfect that's y I changed my switchbacks last week to 6000k also.
