^^^I concur...
I'm sure with everything you're planning it'll come together nicely. I may have missed the response, but was this vinyl?!?

Looks clean, I don't like the grille's color though, paint it black to match the wheels and drop it!

no problemo, man...
did you HAVE to paint?!? like, accident or something?!!?!? Or you chose to?!?! I DO think it looks cool...would love to see it in person or how it looks when complete. What you think about some white GLOSS wheels (or matte) and black lip or something similar?

If he did the jambs, probably not...
although you could have just never put wax on the oem paint and waited 25 years and it would have looked like this for free!

My TL looks flat white too, but that's because it hasn't been washed in 3 weeks.

Seriously though, I really like this. Where are you located? I'm thinking this is the type of look that you have to see in person or in semi-professional photos to appreciate.

In for more pics.

Highly recommend that if you're anywhere near John, you make the effort to have him shoot the car. He'll get your point across...

Looks great but you need a tint asap.
It just looks out of place without it to me atm.

How much did the wrap run you?

Looks great. I love matte white/black cars... just not the TL. I honestly would prefer a WDP TL It's cool to be unique though!

I don't understand the thread title. So I'm thinking about a matte white TL-S and now I'm imagining it? Isn't that the same thing?



Looks great! I wouldn't do it to my car but I appreciate the effort put into it.

Oh so he wasn't kidding I thought that second post was meant as joke.
If he painted it I second what Morrisey said Matte White Pearl is the way to have gone.

Either way it looks good and definitely unique.
He is in dire need of a tint and then perhaps if his pockets aren't empty Matte Black Rims.
