The only stickers on there are the exhaust pointer (It's Comptech Sport) as I got tired of telling everybody where they could get one at stoplights; the SRH sticker in the back window (representing for my buds...see srh.com) and that damn dealer sticker I still have to take off. There is the A-spec and stock badging on there too....

hey so how does the car sound. did u put both on at the same time? if u put the intake on first, did it sound loud? non luxurious? i just wanna know basically if your car sounds like your average rice rocket with both intake and exhuast. or does it sound unique

Ya...I was just messing with ya back a bit! Correct....I chose the A-spec suspension set up due to the fact that is was easier to deal with and wanted to stay with the basic A-spec pkg except when I had to deviate to accomplish what I wanted to do. Yep...I agree with the stickers thing....as I said...I get too many questions and dont want to deal with em at the stoplights, etc. so I just put it on there for about 3-4 months and it tends to do the trick...plus promote modding the TL's locally and letting peeps know where to get the stuff, ect. (did the exact same thing for my Lexus GS400 L-tuned) Since I have been running around Indy...I have seen about 4 other A-spec TL's that have cropped up too. As I said...been meaning to 86 the dealer stickers for a while now.....figured I would remove them and the exhaust pointer at the same time in a few months at one shot. And by the way....my style is a bit ghetto....so shit...what can I say there - if the shoe fits...wear it and wear it good! I'm just a lucky chump from Indy....! (if I can steal a line from Rick Fairless on Speed Channel!)

I have been happy with it. Working on a sound bite to post for people who have been asking the same question. My guess is it sounds just like the manuals....same motor making the sound?

Looks nice! Got a close up of the CAI where it connects to the TB? It seems like there's no IAT sensor relocation option on that Injen.. just curious.
I, for one, like the wind deflectors... looks clean, and like you, I hate how the water just pours in from the top of the A-pillar even when it's not raining hard.
And I agree with the rest of the folks... the decals on the back ruin the clean look of the WDP. At least take off the dealer ad and the comptech one.... if you really want to put on a comptech decal, find a white one and put it on the black plastic part between the two tips. I think that'd look clean...er.
