Pin Stripes
I know it's a personal opinion but what is your feeling about a pin stripe on the side of the 09 TL? Has anyone done this? Are there any photos available?
Thanks!

Yeah I would say that it would look horrendously bad. It's just not a racing stripe car.

I would recommend the sunroof visor and the gold package to go with the pinstriping. Or maybe have your name written in the pinstriping!

Seriously... I wouldn't do it.

The SH-AWD I test drove had pin stripes and I thought they looked pretty good. They even had a little Acura symbol in them.
