Borealis Blue Pearl Build

My 2009 TL Tech Package with only 28k miles Tints was first. 5% all around and front windshield 35%. Debaged everything pretty much it for now. Ordered BC Coils should be here within a week or two and some small mods like VLED Lights on the Visors, Reverse taillights and license plate lights they're really bright lol. Want lip kits and wheels but later on. Follow my gram @papi.tl and my bros TSX build coming along nicely @Killao_ ( https://acurazine.com/forums/2g-tsx-...ogress-912488/ )

Very nice. Can't go wrong with BC's. I recommend removing the front plastic air diffuser underneath the front bumper. You'll have better clearance.

Opened headlights switched to clear corners and painted housing black. Also cleaned the headlights because they were hazy and yellow looking.

Wish I had clear corners. I'm afraid of condensation when sealing it back together. Looks sweet!
