Looks F@#%in sweet man! I was actually thinking about doing that myself but i already went with some 20's and wasnt sure how it would look. I have a black TLS as well. Did you paint them yourself or get them done? Are those the stock tires as well? They dont look like it.

Thanks for the comment guys.
I was urging to post for a while, ever since I got and installed the halos for the headlights. But I controlled myself and waited for the drop and everything, I wanted to give you guys a surprise.

And yes boys! Those are angel eyes!

My job was to hand him what he needed, set up the wheels, and sit back and enjoy with a coke in my hand!

Sick ass set up man! Looks nice, love the way everything flows. I'm really digging the grill though, did you just paint the middle bar? cause I cant see it. Oh and the powdercoating looks hella nice, makes them look bigger too!

I would, but that's illegal, but I didn't wanna just leave the plate as it is, so I moved it to the side.
No bumper drilling involved tho, I used those little plastic zipping things and zipped it to the lower grille.

I hate the plate also, but it looks cheap off to the side, IMO
Besides that, your car looks great, unique, Nice.

But mods? No, that's all my own money. I work $11/hr at my my friend's dad's resturaunt. and it's really good pay with tips. So I get money for mods and stuff.

Congrats on a nice car with unique and economy mods. Way to make the most of it, and good work ethic, you'll get far if you keep working hard.
