I did. You can use Testors Window Tint Spray, and pretty much "tint" it to the degree you prefer.

those look nice...hopefully the paint will not peel off like mine did. I painted mine with the same stuff about a year ago and started having problems with it after a couple of washes. I decided to get mine done professionally and haven't had problems with it since. The problem lies in the chrome finish itself..paint doesn't stick to it well. The guys at the shop said it needs to be "chemically etched" so that the paint will grab....who knows what the hell they used but it works!

Yeah, its pretty much just like regular can spray. Just make sure you do light coats and wait a good 15 minutes between each coat, or else you can see where it clot/thicken up because its transparent. It's called Testors window tint spray.

Whatup Aznbo187......TL looks sweet, I definitely love the drop and the wheels. Quick question......do you notice a difference with the Buddy club coilovers, can you give a comparison on both suspensions. If I decide to get another Acura maybe RL.....I might get the Buddy Club coilovers, if they offer them for the RL.

Ok well, I've had several setups on my TL. I think I'm the only one that had, Stock, A-spec,A-spec with comptech springs, Buddyclubs, and Tein Basics.

I actually found the Buddyclubs to be very absorbing, and cushioned. They take smaller freeway bumps suprisingly well without bottoming out. Only bad thing is though you will lose a bit of road feeback. So if you are looking for a more comfortable setup, Buddyclubs. They also didn't loose any shock/spring travel at any height because the whole shock was threaded.

I actually wouldn't recommend the tint spray, unless you can have a professional bodyshop clearcoat it.

Mine started chipping after a few high pressure washes. =/

That's look clean. Wheel matches the color of the car. Thought about clearing the headlamp? That would complete your look

In this pic, was your car already dropped? If so, do you have any more pics with your car dropped on stock rims? How much did you drop your car by? I'm considering just doing a drop and sticking with stock rims.

I think the car looks slick dropped, with stock wheels. But once you do get bigger wheels, you can't go back. lol.

Here are the only other pics I have.
