Woah, I havent checked this thread in a while and look what I come back to, you car looks awesome bhai saab (I am guessing from your username).

For headlights I would recommend doing color match as your car is a shade of blue . To give you an idea here is how KBP color match looks on 3G.

Thanks, Yes I can. I just takes some getting used to. You just need to avoid big dips/bumps.

Yup, Ive been wanting to do the swap since you did but was to cheap to replace perfectly good grilles. I got a deal on these from ANDYCHULOSKI09 who just did the '12 conversion.

Man, I don't even know what to say! The car looks beautiful. By far one of the hottest TL's I've seen. It isn't riced, it's still got a really sleek and classy look to it. Outstanding job man.

If you don't mind, how much did you pump into the car? (just mods, not initial price)

I'm not sure if you posted already, but what did you swap the stock turning signal with? I hate the Amber color of the stock light.

Thanks. thats what i was aiming for. something sporty looking but not ricey and at the same time functional.

I've put more than $10k into the car, thats a rough estimate. im sure its more now.

the white turn signals are calles switchbacks. they run white but flash yellow.
