Some night shots. Most came out bad because I needed a tripod. These were the only decent shots:

Awesome way to describe it. I asked my wife to start calling me Lord Vader... she laughed and rolled her eyes.

congrats on wheels an all of your recent upgrades .i had a question for you how was the plastidipping process for you? The picture of the front of the car looks like it matched perfect. Reason i ask is because i wanted to fool around a bit with plasti dip myself just to see what results i would get..thxs

Plastidipping was actually fun. I made a day of it and tried not to rush the coats. It's totally reversible so don't worry about messing up your car. Watch the videos online and have fun with it. I would note that I did have a headache and cough for a day afterwards from inhaling the fumes. Even though I had the garage door wide open and tried my best not to inhale that crap, I guess I did. Next time I'll probably wear a mask of some sort.

THanks. Lucky coincidence that the Plastidip matches the wheels.

Loving the wheels are car man! The only thing I would change is the plastidipped tails.. Its kinda hard to believe you actually did that to such a nice car. If you want to tint them, at least get them done right man.. Keep it up though, all else looks hot!

I did the tai lights on a whim, but I honestly like how they look. It's one of those things I have not been able to photograph correctly. They look much better in person or wouldn't have left them on. Trust me!!! I do appreciate the constructive criticism though. What area my other options, short of having a body shop spray them?

You can always tint them, tinting them will give them a uniform look or you can red them out. Check lamin-x.com

Thanks for the pics Ag, Your tl is looking great! I really like the wheels. As far as the tails go they look good if you have a quality body shop do a light spray on them.

Do you have any daytime photos with your new wheels? Forgestar F14 is my first choice because of the weight.

Be prepared to wait for 2 months, but well worth it in the end...

Nice. The flat black grill and trunk lip look great with those rims.

Still love this shot. I wish Acura would have it say "Launch" instead of start. And put the button on the center console with a red lift up cover-just like Lamborghini.
