DRUMROLL!!!! Day 1 of my AM 6mt

I got my baby today. Had to go straight to work but washed her on my lunch and put my wheels on when I got home!! Here are some stock shots and with the wheels. I have a a-spec kit waiting to go on the car along with tl-s tails.

Congrats on the purchase. It's going to look even better once you put on the a-spec and get a drop.

cheapest of them all, and brembo released slotted rotors

They were hard to find in the +40 offset. BTW, there is about 1 mm between the caliper and the rim, almost got upset putting them on!!

I think they look sweet on Anthracite. But I also like the stockies and am glad I don't feel the urge to splurge on rims. Nice car, congrats!

Really??? I thought that the stock OEM Wheels were made for the car, but mabe it's just me

haha, jk man..every1 has their opininons...mabe it's just the shots, the rims look decent but when i see the 2 pics side by side the stocks just make the car's stance seem so agile and muscular..vs those other ones with the chrome rim around makes it seem unnatural...again, my opinion and my

Damn! you're not wasting any time with the modding! Im thrilled there is another modded TL in the charlotte area. I think in the other thread you said something about getting some coilovers.

I think you took those pics on the bottom level of the ballantyne shopping centre if i'm not mistaken.

...lookin good, glad the wheels fit! Can't wait to see it as the car progresses.

Ballantyne all day!!! Was the closest spot to light up the whip.

You know, the more I look at the car the more I don't mind the 1 inch wheel gap. I don't know if I can justify $1500+ for 1 inch!!! Plus i'm broke.

If I do something I do it right the first time. I just won my house poker tournment just now, so I guess I will go ahead and get the SS's.

Tournament style. $20 buy-in, unlim. re-buys for first 2 blinds. Winner takes all besides $40 to second. I never re-buy. Typical pot for 1st place 300-500.

now that's a sweet deal, you can control and sometimes get an easy 300-500...nothing bad in that

...good luck bro, let me know how long you go before charmeck pulls you over. They've been cracking down on it for a while now. Ryan with the white TL didn't last a day with his new tint!

Tom. morning I am off to VA to have the K40 and the Viper installed. While I'm there I am going to install the tails and the aspec kit. Yesterday I bought the tv2nav unit and a sweet dvd player that fits in the carbon pocket under the head unit. BTW, I'm not worried about the tint. I have that under control, I had 2% on my eg, 5% on my teg, and now 5% on the TL. I have a stack of probably 15 tickets that all got dismissed without any work.
