Out, yes; in, no. I'm not a fan of the rims, but he did a good job with them. I agree on the exhaust tips, and I also like the TL-S rear lip. However, that two-tone is horrendous...and I've never understood why one needs a TV in the trunk.

The one with the ghosts...uh-huh. But, we should post that one all over so people quit asking about lambo doors.

Also, can someone please explain to me the need to advertise what size wheel you're running on the side of your car? I mean I know I'm like the super-white dude who probably "just doesn't understand that culture" but seriously, I just don't get it.

"Yeah, man. My wheels are 22". It says so right there on my fender. In case you didn't know, 22" is huge, so I need to let everyone know just in case they're not privileged enough to have the time of day to come up and ask me."

No disrespect and to each their own but that shyt looks that those remote control cars I would see in Radio Shack. No Joke. The problem isn't the size of the wheels on the TL, but b/c the '04+ TLs have such a narrow compact size that anything above 20s just doesn't look right. I bet anyone that it would look sorta OK on a '99-'01
I THINK!!!



just my couple pennies

out of those two cardomain links I like their interiors
I like the two tone seat
and i like the texture on the second one too (even though i wouldn't get it done)..guess its crocodile.

but back on topic..no i dont have any pics but either way i think you should stay away from them. I can imagine the faces on your OEM rotors everytime you hit the brakes....

That is the 2009 TL-Type SUV.... That shit is HOT!!! lol. But for real that is retarded. The A-Spec kit can't even help that car...It would be a waste of time putting it on. He needs to put on a setof crome side steps from the MDX.

Not as bad as I though

don't get me wrong I think it looks aweful, but it's not as bad as I thought it would look. I figured you would need to raise the suspension more to get them under there. There are a few old monte carlos around Chicago with like 26" and you could litteraly crawl on your hands and knees under the car.
