First white TL i've seen with that lip. Looks decent...and would probably look more complete with the addition of Aspec side skirts and a rear apron, either base or Type S.

Wheels are hot.

Welcome to the forum.

Hmn.... What version of the front lip are you using? I remember seeing two.. but they looked similar.
In my opinion your front end looks a little fat... Are you going to get sides and a rear to even it out? =]
Welcome by the way

I don't know which version of front lip and it does look little fat. No offense but i donn't like the aspec lip. I might get side and rear later. I like the way it sits right now.

Car looks pretty badass. I'm not so sure about the lip, but otherwise killer.

Congrats on your tl and welcome to the forums you will find a wealth of information here, so please use the search function in advance. Also refer to the 3G garage. BTW, watch out, this site will make you want to spend money modding your car.

Your car looks pretty nice, have you thought about the TL-S sidemarkers and Tailights? Also no offense, but I'm not feeling the front spoiler, it makes the TL look bloated and fat, plus it doesn't flow with anything...

I think it'll look good with some skirts and a rear lip so that it'll hang lower.
No offense taken on the a-spec lip. Was also thinking about going with that lip you have once before too.

Yea Im not feeling the lip either. But I agree it would look alot nicer if you get side skirts and a rear lip to balance it out. Also that white is way off, you should consider getting it painted. Welcome to the forums!

I'm also not feeling that front lip. But if you like it, I'd suggest getting a pair of sideskirts and rear lip to compliment your front lip.
Oh, and welcome to Acurazine.

Thanks again for your kind input.
I love the look of front but you guys are right about not balanced on side and rear. The angle on that pic make worse but its not that bad when you see it in person. I guess 80% of TL here has the aspec lip on the front but i wanted to look different. hehe..

Not really off in person. They look about the same.

lip looks fine. just different. but different means original so its a good thing. paint looks a little off, though. good luck color matching a WDP

get the side skirts and a tail to beef up the rest of the body to match the front.
