Order it! Lol!
LOL, I emailed them to ask if that's exactly how the kit looks like because on their website it says it fits only 04-06 models, but it looks like a base front aspec for the 07-08 and a type s aspec 07-08 rear. They replied and said that's exactly how the kit looks like.

Thanks, and I don't add up costs on my mods, if I did I'd shoot myself! Lol!

But yeah, that sounds about right. Maybe a little less. I saved a ton on fabrication and installation since I did it myself.

WOW!!! That is sick as hell. I take my hat off to that work, nicely done! Could you give me the specs on the sub and stereo equipment? I need to add a stereo to my TL and just do not want to put the sub enclosure (regular sub enclosure) in the trunk losing too much space.

Car looks amazing. LOVE the detail you put into every mod. Must take a lot of time to get everything done to reach the caliber of your mods. Keep it up.

guys its that time again, ive found more stuff to do

im currently in the process of DE-DI-NOCing my car. i figured i have to much of the real stuff to put this stuff on. so im ripping it out. and customizing interior parts with the REAL DEAL looks so much sexier. this will take me a few weeks to complete. i'll also be CFing some parts never before done here, and creating some custom pieces as well as an exterior part

heres a few teasers

my little helpers


tl-s sleeping, with a 2X2 twill weave CF cover


these parts still need to be wet sanded and shot with a coat of clear, as you see them here they have 3 coats of resin, wet sanded twice.




small banner in my garage


stay tuned im not done!
