Thanks boys...maybe I'm just too harsh on my own car 
I painted with high temp silver as a base, then regular satin lagoon (teal) from home depot, then Brembo decal, then about 5 coats of regular clear.

I'll even sell you my FIC with plug-n-play harness cheap to replace the CT ACM. I'm going Flashpro soon. My FIC already has a good tune so your probably saving at least $500 there and its going to ride soooo much better. Crap i might even help you install it ($1,000+ saved right there).

And if you don't love it, we will love it for you. 
But seriously, if you can... pull the trigger! If you're like me, powerful cars make you giggle like a schoolkid.

PS, Rich and MAS, you guys are very nice. I appreciate the offer no matter what. I always think, well, new car taxes would be $2000 lost...so why not. But fk...$3500 plus shipping, and another $500 for that tune thing...4 grand will be a tough sell to the wife.
If only I could go back in time on all the BS I've spent on the car...

I'd say more like $5000 tuned. Then throw in all the supporting mods... :/
Which is hard to swallow if you intend to purchase a new vehicle in a year or two.

J, are you really wanting a new car already?
I thought after the S5 you convinced yourself the TL was your baby and you couldn't give it up?
