Matt's Blacked out TL Lowered on Vossen CV3's (Matts Acura)

I need some input people, I'm thinking about getting a set of Vossen CV2 wheels that are all 10.5 and a +27 offset. It's aggressive but it'll fit. Need some opinions on the look though as I'm on the fence. I would likely have the inner portion of the CV2's painted the grigio color. I did a photochop so let me know your thoughts.

I'd suggest hitting Nexson up and see if he would paint a grill for you. He has or had an exchange program.

Well I have a few updates finally. I picked up some depo headlights with the clear corners. I was gonna get the 2012 ones but I decided to go with the clear reflectors and clear lenses since it would match up with my color scheme better than the amber lenses.

I also got a set of tein ss coil overs and User_Error just put them on for me yesterday. I went with the lowest setting first since I wanted to see what it felt like with it as low as it could go. It rides way better then the tein springs.

How do you like the Depos compared to oems in terms of quality and cut offs? The Teins put your height perfect.

I'm lovin the Depo's cut off is way more crisp than the OEM's and that's about the only difference... Only issue is adjust the levels with a 10mm wrench not a screwdriver or drill... the mechanism to adjust is delicate but they all are even the oem's

Thanks guys! Steven, I already told user_error we need another photoshoot day. I've been wanting an excuse to use my new lens for my dslr too!

I'd down if the friggin pollen will stop... you wash the car and 10 minutes later it's yellowey green again... but it's time I've gotta shoot Erin's too for a ton of updates to my build thread... Her's got new rubber yesterday... so the wheel well gap is half of what it was... but man it raised the car up a ton... I see why you could haul ass into my driveway now...
