I love the flow of the car, really hot.

Not feeling the blue accents, I guess it gives it some contrast but I would have gone a different way.
Either way your car is nice, keep it up.

Swampy, in the lower right hand corner of each post, the middle icon is a multi-quote button. This allows you to respond to multiple people in a single reply.

Get it a try-you'll really like it.

Love those wheels and the drop is sexy. I'd lose the garage door lip on the front though...looks much better without it IMO.

Damn your car is nasty sexy, i love how low you are. I wish i could be that low, but streets here in Baltimore suck ass. One thing im not a big fan of is the Home Depo lip other than that your car is

bad ass man! i'm in the dallas area too!

i cant imagine driving that low... i'm dropped maybe 2 inches and still sometimes scrape my front lip. i'm pretty sure that's why you have that EZ lip on, if you do scrape, it won't scrape the actual lip!

where did you go to get your headlights worked on?

I think 15-20mm spacers will be just right.

I really like your ride, especially the wheels and the suspension setup. I just can't get into the home depot lip, especially since it doesn't seem to go all the way to the corners of the bottom of the bumper. IMO, this mod is more appropriate for a Civic, not a classy car like a TL.

I really like the fitment and the rim style and drop. But can I be honest? I really don't care about the blue accents, its kinda rice and corny. And don't like black on black. It's hella played out and we cant really see the nice contrast and contour of the actual rim. My suggestion is PC it a lighter color....

Wow! That's pretty low OP. Your car looks mean . After you get the ATLP quads, you should look into either TL type S or the Ghost tail lights and get the rear sidemarkers to match the fronts ones. Then you're be golden.
