anyone have PM pics with a Body kit?

Thinking about going with the OEM body kit, but the factory pics are real. Does anyone have the kit on a PM 4G?

Thanks in advance

did anyone else think that the OP was asking for pictures of Palladium Metallic instead of the Polished Metal Pictures that everyone posted up instead? (I swear that first one is Grigio...)

Thank you very much. That's exactly what I was looking to see and has helped me confirm my decision.

All but the front piece looks good, the front piece doesn't flow well with the front of the car

You probably haven't seen the right angle on it yet.

The nose of the TL is fairly aero as it is, and you don't want to just throw an air dam on it because (1)people will run into parking bumpers and (2)you will interfere with the air flow being directed up into the engine bay by various aerodynamic pieces under the car.

Cooling the J37 AWD motor was a concern for Honda, so air flow is directed in a way that will aid the oil cooler and the regular heat dissipater. Noise was also a problem, so air is directed in a way to keep it from flowing out of the engine bay and against the A pillar in a way that might cause a driver to believe that the windscreen is leaking or making noise.

I think that if you go and have a close up look from various angles and distances, you will probably appreciate the front piece more.

In fact, I think you'll find that a lot of us *only* get the front piece, and we'll have mud guards instead of the full kit.

To me, the rear underspoiler darkens the mood of the rear end and doesn't do anything at all to be worth buying.

Not that I know much, of course.

I don't like it. Not feeling so bad now that I didn't get it. Glad I just went with the door side molding. But it does look better with the 18". Made a quick PS for your viewing pleasure.

The 18's help big time, but the kit just doesn't do it for me. I think you went the right way with the BSM and the tint. Problem is, we can't go that dark here in NJ. Thanks for the PS!

Same in NY with the tint but I have never been pulled over for it (knock on wood).
