I was just looking at some of that yesterday. How good does that stay on for the long haul....I live in Indiana....cold winters,ect. Wondering if there would end up being a peeling issue? What do you think having used it and how long have you had installed?

That is the same clips that are here on Acurazine and if you ask me leave a little to be desired....but working on better sample from my own car. Didnt want to leave you waiting though.....

The black Chrome emblems you have to get made special. Look under platers in your phone book or on the net...there are several companies that can do this for you.
Thanks I'll check it out..

So you guys are ok with the exhaust showing the muffler like that? I actually like the look of the stock exhaust better to be honest. Not trying to disparage this TL ... very awesome, better than what mine looks like (all stock). Just don't think I'd be happy with the look of that exhaust.

Not to mention the sound!

(even before A-spec). BUT, I already had a GS400 with very similar system (L-tuned) so I was used to that look also....but I really did struggle with the decision...then just "went for it". Now...I am so used to seeing the round tips....the stock exhaust looks a bit strange to me? But I TOTALLY know what you are saying....had a bit of a struggle with it too! But the performance gains were well worth the trade off! Not to mention the sound!

Nice ride, sir.
One question, how's the UR pulley on the AT TL. Does it cause any problems? Do you think it'll cause any later? How's the power difference.
Thank you!

I too have an '06 WDP, and have started down the similar path as yourselves, but am wondering, is it possible to put on the exhaust like you did and use the square tips? Would it be restrictive? Car looks great! Wish I had a spare $10k, but then when I look at the $10k I saved by not getting a BMW I smile and think of the things I want to do next to my new TL.hehe...I'm hoping to do an A-spec rims and susp next, I'd like to see the WDL TL with good pics of the A-Spec dark chrome rims too, all the ones I've seen online of rims look the same.
CT RSB went on mine yesterday, performance bushings and Sun auto voltage and grounding kit come next, then maybe CAI..A-spec kit...dynamat, stereo, all it takes is $$!!
