Thanks Al for all your help in the past 4 months between PM's and random posts in different threads which made this build alot smoother.
Thanks I always had my eye on the VS-XX since i bought the car about a year ago.
Thanks
Lol it will be about another 6 months or so before i get my new wheels.
Rodney this is partly your build too even though we are like 6 time zones away you were very helpful with the air runner install and i can not wait to see your new stance especially with the Ordens it just going to be in a class of its own.

So sick I knew these were VS-XX but then I saw one of the teaser pics and it looked like step lip but I think it was just blurryness of the pic. So that threw me off. Anyways they look so sick I love the burning black VS-XX looks amazing! Damn I wish I had airbags also, so sick!
BTW What are the offsets?

You'll never see the end of the old lady.
LOL I have learned from past experiences to just ignore, they'll grow into loving the car too. My gf(ex) ended up buying me things for my car too. (Not the TL, but my DC2 before)

that is true but i think she is beginning to like modding cause she already asked if the teins i had would fit her honda accord and if the stock wheels will fit too. I told her that the stocks will fit just gotta get new tires for the rear since they are near bald lol.

Yeah, I agree...but in my relationship, I'm probably the more conservative spender anyway...she trusts that whatever I get, I've thought a lot about and researched and gotten a great deal and taken residual value into consideration.
Back on topic...great looking car with great rims! I'd like to see a pic of the car at normal riding height...maybe where the tire is just starting to tuck...just to see the whole rim and have the camer in the rear come back.
What car do you have in mind?

Yeah she wanted me to mod her car for her too. Hhhha, it's awesome.
I would like to find a gf now that is into cars too...

Rear bald?! Too much Dorifttoo? LOL jk dude :P

Thanks glad i am finally near done with this grueling 3 month install.
Thanks close to the look i wanted to achieve maybe a little mods and i should be there.
Thanks id like to think i am one of a kind
Can you tell santa to send cash my way lol.. It would help alleviate the headache of how much was spent, but its a very expensive hobby and i do not regret any of it
Lol ask the wifey for Christmas in July lol
Yeah VS-XX FTMFW!!!! Lol even your white on gold is amazing and i always thought that white on gold pulled the clean and subtle look way better than a black on gold. Thanks
Yeah she has calmed down quite a bit since the time we met 4 years ago but i sometimes still dont hear the end of it from her 
Ill take some pics later one this week after i get an alignment to even everything out. But as far as the next car i have in mind there are too many lol 
There are woman out there but i would rather she support my hobby than like to do the same thing as me, that way i can spend more money than to hear her complain that i didnt buy enough parts for her car lol and its better when they are a little car illiterate than i can buy parts and bullshit her into believing that its going to save gas lol

Holy crap...that looks great man. Great job! So you're really only 1 degree worse than me with probably 2 inches lower than me...maybe I should dump my Tein's a little more!?!? lol.
Either way, looks great!
About the GF...I agree...I dated a chick that loved cars and working on it and she pushed me out of the way to unbolt something once and I was like...ok...this ain't sexy...i like her to dig it and appreciate it but let me handle getting my hands dirty...you go do your thing.
The complaining just comes with the territory...and to be honest, I'm not immune to doing it myself so I'm cool with it.

Thanks
I am begging to fall in love again with the car.
Thanks Jaber this is a big complement to me especially since you dont approve the TL to be a VIP car (not that i was going for the VIP look) but i was merely going for a clean and sporty look. So thank you for that
Thought about it and it really sucks that there is only one lipkit. I been looking at other vehicles lip kits i could cut and mold into the car and so far the E92 lips have been very influential to what i am looking for so well see what i can figure out will fit.

You guys all trash people that get a set of 22" chrome wheels because it looks ghetto, but to me this is the definition of ghetto.... I think it's cool that you can get equipment to do this but it just looks ugly. Sorry to trash your tread, but I just don't get the "go lower" mantra that everyone keeps repeating on here. I think some sort of drop looks sexy, but outdoing the 'big dogs' just for the sake of being one Mountain Dew can off the pavement is not the way to go. The rant is over, carry on bravely. P.S. I think the rims look awesome, why hide them behind the fender.
