lol. just watched the original 3 star wars last week too - so awesome.

yeah actually I was thinking about a DIY probably this weekend, I definitely think it will really give an aggressive look

(I still gotta ship the headlights back lol, sorry I've been quite busy lately, I will get it out by tomorrow hopefully!)

all i can say is that the car looks great. but there is that old saying all show and no go. meaning a lot of money spent on the car for the looks, but still has no go. save up your money and tweek your engine for the ultimate driving machine.

I fully agree - I still got everything in my upcoming plans to do with engine and suspension.

This coming weekend I'm installing the P2R throttle body spacer, then I also have to install the underdrive UR Pulley, and then the complete ATLP V2 Quad Exhaust system, with the ATLP Race Pipe, J-Pipe, etc. I'm also considering the J&R Turbo kit for down the line

Everything comes in due time my friend, in due time

Hm, I was thinking about that..but I kinda like the contrast..oddly enough it somewhat brings out the calipers of the car haha, I was going to give them a fresh gun metal paint job too.

looking good man! Not feeling the grill at all I think the silver adds much needed contrast to the black. I still like it I guess just way to murdered out for me. Your next mod need to be foglights!!

can you provide a ebay link for the rear roof spoiler wing. This has been asked before but your reply was to seach on ebay spoiler section which doesn't help much.

While you do a ebay search it comes out with different style from the one you have that is why we are asking you to please provide the seller link or sellers name. thanx in advance.

i Want to buy the same one you have from the same seller.

nice mods, works perfectly with the car, paint is kept clean too very nice.. perhaps smoking the tailights would make the car look even better but thats just my opinion

sorry man but I can't find the exact same one, but all you have to do is search "acura TL roof spoiler" and you'll find a BUNCH. just make sure it's for the 04-08 TL and you should be good - and then also make sure it's painted.

Man I saw your car in real life finally at acurafest. SO nice. It's pretty much the type of look i'm aiming for. Except I have ABP and no money

I thought your car was definitely one of the best looking there this weekend. Loved it.
