3 Meg Photos of 2004 Underside
I know you have been all waiting for this.
Attached is a link to 3 meg photos of the undercarriage of the 2004 TL.

I did the best I could given that my friend only gave me a few minutes this morning at his shop.
Note the cooling ducts from the front strakes for the front brakes for those who were wondering about this.
They are pretty large and go directly into the wheel well.
I tried to indicate the view in the title of the photo.
Also, you can tell the car is new to the assembly workers, just look at the welds on the aluminum sub frame around the engine. It should get better with time.
Ask any questions and i will try to answer.
Hopefully Jeff at TOV will do a review of the underside soon.

Don't you think most of the welds are handled by robots (either "independently" or guided by line workers)? Of course, I guess either way the layout of a new model could take some time to perfect the welds for...whether through robot programming or worker familiarity.
