Looking good. Curious though, why did you go with yellow bulbs and yellow tint for your fogs?

I had read on different forums about the single yellow tint film didn't make the light output a true yellow. I wanted to make sure the fog lights showed a true yellow when on and people could see the yellow film on the fog lights when off also.

It must really be yellow then, 'cause I just have the Hoen bulbs and it's pretty yellow.

Lol Yeah. It's pretty yellow. I believe I first learned about the Hoen bulbs from you.

Thanks. Hopefully, I can complete the future mods in a timely manner. The lip kit should be installed no later than the 4th of July.

10% tint. So Jealous. Anything more than 35% is an automatic "Pull Me Over Please," here on the West Coast.
Keep up the good work

Appreciate it
Lol Yeah. Cops don't look for illegal tint too much here in Arkansas unless the car looks suspicious. We all know 4G TL's don't draw any suspicious or negative attention.

Well, I went ahead and just ordered my 4" exhaust tips off of eBay. I ordered the exact same kind that Matt has on his CBP TL. My OEM side skirts will be here Mon. I'm getting my front bumper repainted and RJ front lip painted on Thur. The following Tues I'll install the entire lip kit and probably get the tips and Magnaflow mufflers installed that day also. Its going to be a busy 2 weeks for the ride. I won't feel so far behind. Lol

Lol Thanks! The WDP is nice.
I have Taupe/Black combo interior. That Umber is a good looking stand out color though.
Ok. Thanks for the tips. I'll probably give you a call on July 2nd when my friend and me install the lip. I bought the lip from DJ Tanveer. I believe he threw some extra 3M double sided tape in the box for me.
Make sure you use adhesive promoter, and measure twice, apply once. The splitter should be aligned properly to avoid gaps from being too off to one side or too set back or forth. There's a sweet spot where it is gapless. Call me when you are gonna do it, I'll walk you through all the tips.

I definitely don't want to mess the look up with tips that sit too late. I have a rear pic of your TL to show the exhaust shop so they see exactly what to do.

I'm taking the lip and front bumper to the paint and body shop this afternoon. I know your ride will continue to look top notch whether you keep the OEM lip or decide to get the RJ lip(again).

I originally planned to get the Magnaflow 11225 mufflers but that changed this morning. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a pair of Borla ProXS 40357 mufflers. Saw them on eBay this morning for $75 a piece. Seemed too good to pass on that price.
