JKI like both of them on NSX but popup ones give more supercar look.
Actually I like the popups more but if you don't use them
They have the parking lights and maybe fogs below the headlight. That's what looks good when you just turn on the parking lights and add a fog there + keep the popups close.
When it gets totaly dark outside, then I would use the popups.. So no one sees them
That gray thing under the popup... idk what's it called.. parking light..

What the hell...maybe an S2K is in your best interest? But then again you just redid this TL so I'm gonna assume you have the funds if you're considering the NSX.

bro if you need a title change PM Steven Bell and he will do it for ya....and its free 
on the other hand the NSX will be awesome as everyone mentioned but i would try for a little different color, so you can add some color to your garage....blue and black are my fav....sedan = black and my sports car will be blue.....but since you already have a blue sedan, i would suggest you give the other colors another shot like orange or red...i think they will look SEXY on the NSX !!!

You think I'd be posting here instead of prime if that was mine? 
That was my best friends. He is no longer with us and neither is the NSX. But I was there for all the work.
I could never own an NSX. I'm not joking it's too small. I WOULD but literally CAN'T.

Update!!!
What's Up guys... Sorry I haven't got a chance to get on the site that much. I've been so busy with work and all the car's paper work.
Great Update for you guys. The car is done I passed the state inspection on the 15th and then on the 21 I went to the MVA to get it registered and to get tags for it. Now I'm just waiting to get the tags which I should get them by Thursday since the title has to go through out some process or something since it was a salvage tittle.
But anyways here we go with the pics. "Iphone Pics"

What do you guys think.
I'm also already looking onto a set of wheels specially the gold VSXX by Workwheels . I contacted this shop that can get them shipped in from Japan and take about 8 to 12 weeks for 750 plus shipping ... Any body on knowledge with wheels, do you think its a fair price???

I sure will. I drove it once when I took it to the state police inspection and from what I can see right now is that this beauty has such a power and a perfect handling.

is it 750 all together or 750 per wheel? Brand new those wheels will go for around 3300-3500 depending on place of purchase. These wheels are probably one of the best looking wheels for the TL. Great to finally see the finished product man.

Emersont if you decide to sell your stock wheel let me know. I may be interested.
