good pick up at least the car has lots of mods done to it already so you save a few $ and time messing with it.... id say first smoke the rear side markers the red just stands out too much against the grey color of the car otherwise looking good

Looks like it has custom headlights too.

What is done to the exhaust? It looks like the stock Base molded exhaust tip, but it looks like it is pushed in much deeper than stock. Or maybe I'm not seeing it right.

stvtec, his exhaust is stock but it looks stuck in like that because of the Aspec lip.

You managed to pick up a great looking car. Congrats!

Odd, I had the base a-spec lip on my car and I don't remember the exhaust looking like that. Then again, I installed the XLR8 before I even got the permanent plates.

Beautiful car! If you have some time, perhaps adjust the fitment of the rear A-spec bumper piece and move it up just a little bit. I also agree with some of the others and switch out the rear side markers with the tinted Type-S ones. Finally, if you plan on sticking with the Type-S wheels, consider some wheel spacers to push them out a bit, giving them a flusher look.

I really like it. Great pick!

Nice! Great start with all the mods already done to it. I just got a WDP 08 TL w/nav about 3 months ago. Love these cars. I've only had time to tint and put some new rims on it. I need to modify the suspension before I post some pics.
