Looks good! White with a a-spec always looks nice. I know that you are on springs, but the 3rd picture makes your rear look alot lower than the front. Like a whole 1 inch lower. Is that normal or is that because your driveway is on a incline?

Thanks and it's because my driveway is in an incline lol. When I first installed the springs and parked the car in my drive way I was like wtf? I thought they had installed it backwards. But when I'm sitting flat it's pretty even. I wish I had gone with coilovers tho. I might buy coil overs and end up
Selling this set up to my cousin. He has an 08 TL

wow.. those do not look like 20% tint lol

anyways, the darkness of your tint and the wheels very well compliment the WDP. Gonna look even better with the new mods! cant wait to get my headlights modded

3M tints, I got them done at auto image In 2009 so 3 years in January. They did an excellent job cuz most ppl have that rear lil window done incorrectly like the edge which looks horrible.

Your car is BEAUTIFUL !!!

Have you considered painting the center caps black ?

You can see how it looks by putting black tape on one.

Just a suggestion

That's the route I went, just wish it would have been more clear from paint. It will look dope either way on the wdp

I would LOVE to combine my car with yours. I have a wdp and blacked my roof. If i could go back and redo my tints 20 all around rather than 35(20 back) I would. You painted the rims, right?

Yeah I painted my rims myself. We should meet up some time and take some pics I can't wait to black out my roof! Hopefully I'll be done by spring/summer
