Thanks 
Not sure... I've had a delay on some parts... but they should be receiving it in the next couple of days...
Car is being primed today or tomorrow and then painted once the parts come in and modified to fit the car... I expect early next week at the latest...

All motor
At first I saw the tires bulging out of the fender and thought 
I'm not a big fan of that look, but that's just me. Then I saw you going and making some clean flares..very nice. I can't wait to see it all done!!

Lol ... No doubt... Just trying to keep the Bronx on the map... That it ain't just 26" on Escalades and Civics on Rotas in the BX... 
tell Ryan that if wifey lets him out to play... I'll let him roll shotgun in the TL anytime... He knows that... Ryan needs to come out of retirement and get in the game again... Cause he had dudes SICK in the streets with his Integra... he needs to Build a more Grown up car this time around... I know he still has it in him...

We've all been here for years just doing our own thing... The dude bidy and paint work is serious, so I'm not worried about the paint... cause his prep work is crazy... and you know what they say... paint is 90% prep work and 10% paint... Yeah... the dude threw in fixing the dented door for free...

As for the wheels... I went with my usual 5-Spoke... I can't get enough of that style...
Some people already guessed what they were... to them... at the end of the day... I'm easy to read
Here they are... They are like the OEM Stokies but with a little
SuperStar Wheels - Leon Hardiritt - Orden - Reverse Lips
19x10 Front
19x11 Rear

Your car will really be the standard of how a VIP TL should be built.

Thanks Guys... I appreciate the kind words...
The wheel specs aren't important at this level of the game, so why even mention it... So I'm not... I'm confident that you guys can guestimate specs from pictures provided... Or wait until they go up for sale...

rodney, have u ever thoguht about the custom fender work for the TL like the ones on the LS460? I forgot which company made the fenders for the LS...
I've always wondered if the TL can pull that off.. problem is, our 3rd gen's don't have much room to work with that.. It'd def. stand out tho, for sure!
the rims, i cannot wait. dam man, doing it big in the east man, u are holding it down..
O yea, sooo how's mamitachulita?? she ever gonna get sick of those VIp mods?

Thanks Al...
I couldn't half a$$ such a build... it would have been disrespectfull to the the style... rodney, have u ever thoguht about the custom fender work for the TL like the ones on the LS460? I forgot which company made the fenders for the LS...

but I'll leave it for T-XL Version 2.0 next year... 
The funny thing is that the 3rd Gen GS doesn't have much competition... no has brought out that car's full potential yet... I almost purchased one late last year just to build it nice...

Jenn is doing great... And her VIP Mods are fresh to death... PM her, I believe she wants to get rid of them... But she didn't want to sell them to me cause I'm local and she was going to get sick everytime she saw them rolling...
PM her and find out the real deal...
... Tell her I sent you and she might give you my discount

Funny you asked... cause I was about to...
Well, due to delays on parts, shop work load and changes to the original design... My car isn't going to be ready for a few weeks... I want it done right the first time and so does the shop owner... A white car special pearl is very unforgiving to paint flaws... so prep work has to ON POINT...
Here are some update pictures...
Damn that's a crazy PULL...
Changing up the rear a little

^I've been very observant lately for some reason 
. I even caught Brian's little PS trickery. Usually the most obvious things get right by me.
I will say, that shop is doing some really good work. And I think the end result will be great.

Stand For Something
How the hell did I miss this thread? That is some serious work going on there man, to all of it. ESPECIALLY the wheels... 
When are people gonna realize that you just can't beat a nice 5 spoke rim?
