I like the one you have..its small but sleek.

Even though I am selling you the brakes if you choose to since I have a set for sale, I personally feel the roof spoiler you have is nice (I have the same one).

Having BBK myself, it really does help A LOT when you need to stop being that you have so much work done the last thing you need it to not be able to stop fast enough since people don't know how to drive sometimes.

Plus you would be surprised how many customers tell me their lips get stolen...its kinda of hard to steal brakes

05 Aspec looks great....adds a level of aggressiveness while keeping the looks very simple...

the Type S adds more aggressiveness looks like a frog and will help you complete your type S conversion

I personally like the base aspec lip....

only reason I want the type S is for the bigger middle grille and the mesh....I do hate the way the type s aspec looks -_-

if u look carefuly the middle grille is significantly bigger than the base and makes the car look much wider as opposed to narrow/squished

Isnt the type-s bumper and 07-08 base the same thing? minus the position of the fogs? only thing i recall different is the chrome grille on the type-s. OP should just get a 07-08 basebumper paired with the base aspec, that way he doesnt have to do that all fliping and flopping of the fog light grille inserts

I thought the Type-S bumper was a bit more aggressive, as in the sides under the headlights protrude towards the front more.

I could be mistaken though

head lights look great. I would say BBK next especially since you have a nice set of wheels. sux seeing that "stock" caliper. and def adds a nice bling effect. next I would say suede the headliner and swap the interior. ur interior seems to be in good condition so maybe you can find some one to swap with. she is also begging for more HP.

Decided the type S front lip is the aggressive look I am going for. Even when I buy my next car I will still keep the TL till i die. When I do get that next car I'll get a new paint job on the TL and put it away in the garage lol.
