Your TL is not a civic. All your stickers just cheapen the car. the mirror looks TERRIBLE, and the rack trend it really lame. sorry, not much good to say.

I just drive faster than traffic so I don't have to worry so much about what's behind me.

please dont take this the wrong way, but the TL is a classy car, albeit more affordable now, so it should be modded as such. then again, im sure theres a million people out there who think i completely ruined and riceafied my car as well, so thats why the tone of my post should be read with no hate or hostility

The mirror i am not crazy about.. it is a bit too long but hey i am assuming there is no blind spots on that thing..
-thanks man, and i am concern cause my neighborhoods entrance is pretty steep then theres like 3 speed bumps i have to go threw to get to my parking spot lol, and yeah no blind spots at all!!

I love the stance, and the roof rack looks sick. What's your average MPG with the rack on? I have a Yakima rack that I'll be putting on soon.

Do you still like your coilovers? I'm thinking about getting type 1's, but I haven't really heard any long term reviews on them.

Everything is coming along nice.

White OEM rims look good! Subtle difference from silver, but I like it.
