Not yet. I'm thinking of the A-Spec suspension but I don't want the ride too firm. Going to 18" wheels and summer tires degraded the ride quality noticeably. Part of the reason I got the TL was for the luxury value it provides.

"Sparkle Silver" = 18" A-Spec rim color.

Man!! I love the Sparkle silver. I honestly have not seen any other rims look as fitting on a NBP TL.

The front lip plus drop would definitely set the car off, do it.

Excellent choice. Not too dark not too light. Just right.

You're right, it's not much different. Only the wheels are a bit different from the original equipment. Mainly I wanted to take a shot of my car against the backdrop of Seattle and Lake Washington. It was a bit hazy so the picture didn't turn out as nice as I'd hoped. But it's a beautiful area.
