Not a huge update but I removed that sticker in the back and definitely love the cleaner look.
Also got my exhaust tips to sit a little closer to the bumper. I hooked them on to the upper portion of the rubber mounts. They still need to b straightened out but they look better than before!

Nice shots Ricky.

Had a beautiful day friday so I had to make good use of it. Washed the hell out of the TL and did a shoot.
All clean

I'm gonna post some pics that are not edited at all but I just used a little polarized cover over my lense. All it does is change up the glare. Tell me what you guys like more

LOL thanks Q
I had no problems with fitment. Installing was a pain in the ass cuz the little washers are tiny as hell and hard to grab behind the petal while trying to tighten. These are from eBay.

Audio install was pretty easy. I somehow was able to fit the floor panels back in flush even with the huge 0 gauge run.
I'm actually happy with the performance of the setup now. Box is ported at 33 hz so it gives a delicious sound. Visually I would like it to b much nicer but maybe down the road.
Help me decide guys. Spacers, sideskirts, or 3k fogs.
Which first ?

The polarizer makes a WORLD of difference! I noticed some of the shots very dark and then the polarizer helped even the light out a bit.
Great pics, you have one very clean CBP!

I saw those for an 08 civic, and I tried to convince the owner to buy one instead of the cheap, thin generic one from an auto part store and it doesn't even fit right.

I'm not sure if it is worth 50 bucks IMO but I did want something that was perfect and this is it. A little bulky to put up and down but for the heat rejection it provides I am happy with it. Not sure if the pic does it justice but when you look at it it really does look like a high quality shade. Not just some crappy one from Walmart.

I'm sure that will come in handy this summer.

I plan on using the hell out of it. Believe it or not I did notice that it really does keep a lot of heat out. And there's nothing worse than getting into a car with boiling hot BLACK leather seats. So that won't b happening anymore lol

So I got the V3 Tritons but I need some help from you guys so I can install them!
I recall JTS97Z28 saying that I would only need to have one resistor box mounted by each rear taillight. With that, how would I be able to install the front amber V3s if there is nothing to connect into the factory harness without the resistor?
I also need to know how to get the perfect fitment for all the LEDS. I see all the hardware it comes with but how do you get the V3s to lock into place securely?
Please chime in everyone I need this ASAP.
