Exactly. Black car, black wheels, shot at night...it's hard to see anything. But from what I can barely see, it does look good.

I haven't gotten an alignment yet, but I'll get one soon.

And bforbrian I alread got plans for the headlights.

Let me know what else you guys think, both positive and negative. Don't worry about negative comments, I'm not so cocky as to let it get to my head.

Looks good, I'd just suggest blacking out the headlights ofcourse, and black out the entire grill.

Since the TL's fwd, you need to set the rears softer than the front to reduce understeer. I had the shop that installed them adjust everything themselves but I told them to make sure the fronts were stiffer....my car handles amazing since I have the rsb as well.

...this morning I took sepulveda blvd to the san fernando valley (twisty road)...took 25mph turns at 70 and my tires weren't even close to chirping.

They told me that after about 8 months, I'd need to adjust both sides again and make them stiffer since they soften up over time.

My camber was screwed. I need to invest in a camber kit now. Who wants to sell me their rear camber kit?
