Didn't you have a black or CF hood on the 5AT? If you still have it I think you should put it back on. The trunk look hot black with the Honda emblem.

Speaking of the H emblem, did you get the emblem that was made for the JDM Civic SI that is curved on the back? Cuz our trunk is curved at the top so wondering how you got the emblem on.

Been a fan of Eric's TL, will always be a fan of Eric's TL. I'd have to say though, not sure if I'm really digging the rear diffuser. Keep up the good work.

white trunk since there is nothing else black on the car so it kind of looks out of place. But that s2k is not my cup of tea sorry

Pictures of Eric's car just don't do it justice. You have to see it in person to really take it all in and realize just how much work and money has gone into the thing. That car really is EPIC.

The S2000 is epic too...but I didn't see that one in person so I can't vouch for it like the TL haha. Looks damn sweet though.

Very hot, how come you don't have the CF hood on anymore? I think if you put the CF hood on, then definitely keep the black trunk. Either way i think it looks great.

I've owned both of those cars and am so envious of you guys That S2K looks more than amazing and that TL if disgusting. I love the rear diffuser. And keep the black on it looks way better than the white. It will look to plain in the rear without it. zYou have so much going on in the front. the black trunk in the rear really levels things out well

It is an intercooled supercharger.

I say keep the black trunk, add CF hood, remove rear splitter and install some Type-S mirrors...

the black trunk looks good to me! black out your roof and it would flow just perfect who else has a black trunk on a white TL. a CF hood would be awesome. i was thinking of getting one,

if i do i'll paint it like this


spoon CF rear diffuser looks soo sick! your car is my idol, i love it!

one thing though Eric, whats up with that gap on the a-spec side skirts lower passenger side? you sure all the clips are in place? i dont think the gap should be that big.

Another solid shoot! I like the black trunk with the wdp lip. Definetly adds to the aggressive rear.

Shots of your brothers car are always looking sick.

and get your car inspected to lose the ugly inspection sticker

Beautiful, beauuutiful car my man!! As for the trunk i would def. put the white one back on, because it looks so clean with the white hood that the truck gotta go back to white. An just a couple of "suggestions" some type-s mirrors will look badass (i feel u on the ones u have though), some different wheels (i do like ur current ones but something "different" might not hurt) reeeal wide too with aggressive offsets an a lil stretch, AND finally its begging to be slammmmmed out, because then that whole kit, the diffusers and the car itself will really be talking some mega shit lol!! i hope i didnt say anything to affend u, if i did i apologize!! i just wanted to share my thoughts on ur already georgous ride!! keep it up bro...
