It's hard to mess up the looks of a car with axis heros.

...looks clean!...reminds me of the TL i used to see around town.

Thankyou for the comments . The ride is awsome I'm very happy with it. The ride is not as stiff as other people say it is, to me its perfect for daily driving.

I think those will be my next wheels. I want a set of gold 19" Volk GT-S, but at 1/2 the price those look almost as good. I can imagine them on my 06 WDP TL with A-Spec body kit, tint and lowered about an inch or so.

AWESOME!!!

Those will be my next wheels! AWESOME. Great drop -1.25" looks perfect. I want about the same 1-1.25" F&R. I am on the fence between A-Spec suspension, Tein SS and Tein Basic ??? I will install myself as I have read its easy.

Which suspension???
