I went to town on the fenders and bumper with a dremel. I think thats how you spell it. I took the piece of the fender that was cutting into my tire and cut it off. and took some off the bumper just in case.

OP - Nice transformation!! just bought a 06 TL 6 speed same color couple weeks ago. Bone stock and i just have a bunch of ideas running thru my head of what to do. Any pics of after you installed the XXRs?

kind of hard to be original when everyone has done everything imaginable to TLs lol thinking Gold or Black for my wheels though.
