Exclamation New Member, First Pictures

Here are some pictures of my 05 TL I've only had it for about 7 weeks now and I've done a couple of things. Let me know what you guys think?
Still to come mods are:
Under body kit (either dealer one or Ron Jon)
Ultimate pedals covers (already order them)
Clear front lights
CAI
Eibach pro-kit
Illuminated door sills
redoing my sub-box
Brembo rotors.

Wow! You went nuts on it so quick!

Good job! Cant wait to see it with a drop and bodykit. Post pics when you do.

By the way, where did you find 235/35/20 Falkens? I went to tires.com and tirerack and only tires.com had Nitto's pull up.

hey vini!

nice car....not so crazy about the TV installation in the headrests...looks a little bit sloppy...might want to think about getting them redone or something but nice setup.

but i see u want to get the eibach pro-kit.....if you have the money i would buy the coilovers....you can get them cheap off ebay for another 400-500 dollars. if you just ride around on the pro-kit...youll blow out ur stock shocks in a year or so. so you can either go the coilover route, or you can get after market KONI's which everyone has raved about with the eibach prokit but its up to you!

like the rims too!

Good Call! THats one thing I noticed that if you are going to go with 20's, then a bodykit is a must to create that balance. The only thing that worries me is if the A-Spec is any lower. I know it creates the perception, but when I parked next to a TL without one, both of the cars were at the same height from the ground.

Yeah, the eibach springs are pretty mild like the A-spec so a kit should not be that much of a problem. If he were running an S-Tech spring set then that could be a problem going up steep driveways.

Yes that's what I used to convert the Navigation. Needs to be professionally installed, got it done at the whisttle stop in Covina, Califonia. The entire video system cost around 1,500.00. Glad to see that a lot of people like the color!
