Final Curtain Call - Changing of the Guard...(56K = No No)
I sign up on Acurazine back in late 2005 without know what is this all about. I purchased my 2006 Acura TL on November 1, 2005 and did changes from then and now. For some of you may notice, I will be parting out my car soon and will venture off to a next daily driven project car...2008 Acura RL. So what better way to end this is to show you all my timeline and progress that I did to my vehicle so far. I also like to thank some of you also for advices, recommendations and compliments. Without you all here, I wouldn't have come to this point. So enjoy my final series of my photos.
(Please NOTE: I will put up all my parts up for sale soon on the Black Market section. So please don't ask me about parts on this Threads or don't PM me about any parts.
Thank you!

Sad to see you end your adventure with the beautiful TL you have created. At least you're keeping it Acura though! 
I would like some more info on those led strips and how you tapped into the glovebox light. Maybe you can walk me through the same mod, I have been trying to do this for so long now but never got the led strips or whatever you have under there and don't know how to wire them properly.

Nice progress. I always liked your car. Good luck with the RL. There's quite a bit of good stuff available, and with your penchant for custom parts, I'm sure it will turn out to be quite hot. I'll try to remember to check the RL section from time to time.

beautiful car, sad to see it go! Your car was an inspiration for a lot of us 3Gers. You have extended the bar with your inventive and stunning mods and gladly shared it with us here.
Good luck in your journey with the RL, it's a beautiful car as well!

Your TL is looking good. Hate to see it part out, but I guess one must move on or up. I used to be in a TSX myself but now find myself in a 08 TL-S. Loving the car!! Can you tell me what rims (gold ones) you have and where you got them?
The RL is very nice as well.

That has to be one of the nicer TL's I've seen on the forum. Good luck with the RL. Seeing how your TL turned out, I foresee another clean project emerging.
