My NHBP TL
Been part of the community for a little while now and did most of my time lurking but I started putting a little work in here and there on my TL.
Decided to take a few pictures after washing the ride.
Dont have much done yet, my list for anyone interested
Front and Rear Aspec
OEM Window Visors
HIC Rear Windshield Visor
Rear Deck Lid Spoiler
Tein S-Tech w/Tokico Blues
Mid Muffler Delete and straight piped
DynoMax Resonator
Quad Muffler Tips
Nexus 7 In Car Tablet
Hoping to get some 18x9.5 wheels in the near future and also looking into getting my headlights possibly blackhoused, removing the orange diffusers, and angel eyes on the low beam projectors

thanks guys, the tablet was the most difficult mod so far having to take the whole center console apart.. took around 6 hours but i think it was worth it.. i couldnt stand looking at the low res navi screen

just a few more pics i had taken on my phone... nothing particularly special about my car as of right now, just clean and simple..
Im really liking the exhaust tips i bought a few months back.. i just had a muffler shop saw off the oem square tips and weld these on and they fit like a glove
and lastly heres a pic of my road warrior June, she loves to roll in the TL with me every chance she gets

Just picked up these up today... Varrstoen ES1 18x9.5" et30
was really debating between the et22 and the 30 but if i can
im trying to avoid any fender work so i figured ill go with the 30s
and if anything i add some 5mm spacers in the rear and 3mm in
the front later down the road if i find theres a little more room to
play with... ive got a full set of used 225/40s in my garage right now
so ill throw those on for now.. i want to go 235/40 however for my next
set of tires
i got these for a really good price since they have a 15% memorial day sale
going on right now plus i avoided the $140 shipping charge since i was able
to go directly to their store and pick these up PLUS they offered no tax
if i paid cash!! i was gonna wait a little longer to get a set of wheels but ive
been eyeing these for months now and the deal was just too good to pass up
im waiting on my NRG Steel Lugs in gold chrome and my hubcentric rings which arrive next week

thanks man, matter of fact the lug nuts came in today.. now all im waiting for are the tires and hubcentric rings which arrive next Tuesday and i should be ready to goto my tire shop to go throw these on by Wednesday
here are the lug nuts, dust cap comes with a rubber O-ring which should help
seal it off from water getting inside and rusting the studs which I thought was a nice touch.. all in all pretty happy with how they look in person, hopefully it will compliment the wheels once every things put together

these are actually the NRG Steel series lugs they have some weight to it but hopefully the the coat lasts a little longer than the aluminum ones.. ill also make sure the mechanics at the tire shop dont use a impact gun either

I know im pretty late to post but I finally got around to taking pics.. wheels were mounted about 2 weeks now
18x9.5 et30 with 235/40/18 on Tein S Techs no rubbing
Ive bought this car about 3 year ago and the clear coat on the entire car has swirl marks and light scratches.. im pretty sure the previous owner used a brillo pad to wash and dry this car.. so i looked around yelp in my local area and found a shop with 95 reviews and 5 stars.. stopped by to get my car quoted and saw some of their work and was impressed so i set an appointment for this thursday to get a full exterior 2 stage detail.. hoping to get rid of most of the swirls and bring the shine back

thanks man took a lot longer to prep and install than i thought... around 3 and a half hours
prepping the tire to make sure there was zero grease and grime was the hardest part.. it was
like wiping a black marker with a towel.. no matter how many times i swiped the area with acetone,
there was black stains on the towel

Thanks man!!
Thanks! these legacy plates are getting more and more common out here but i can see why.. the color combo is so much better than the plain white plates we have
Nope, seats are all stock oem and never changed. Its most likely the lighting and filter that makes my front seats look tanish
thanks man! definitely hard work to keep clean but the mirror like finish is what keeps me going!
