Is this a sick attempt to "rice-er-ize" a TL? Pathetic.

If I ran for President I would make people take classes on how to accessorize a car. THAT is not it.

So you'd teach everyone to cut into their rear bumpers?

I don't think that's a Type-S. The exhaust ports look too small for the quad exhausts. That guy just put on the Type-S taillights.

Besides, I'm guessing that 90% of TL Type-S owners would have better taste than that .

Looks like it has a "college" sticker on the back windshield, they should take their degree back if that is the sort of intelligence this guy has.

The picture must have been shrunk badly because it looks photoshopped. Like the exhaust was big but then it was PS'd to make it look enormous.

I don't think it's that bad. I mean it's not my style but to each their own. It's not the first time I've seen a dual to single exhaust conversion. At least it doesn't have some stupid stuffed animal hanging from an oversized tow hook.

Guess it was bound to end up in the off-topic section for you guys to critique... Same thing happend to Accuratein back when he started

I won't lie, it is slightly angled too much. But I put a flange under the rear sway bar so all I have to do is cut and reweld the hangers to cancel the angle


BUT like bart simpson said "don't critique my technique..."

Afterall I am the fastest non-juiced UA7 (yes UA7 is the chassis code for a type s)... NOT A BASE

Any problems with my setup... Too bad... I get nothing but love from everyone in my area

Ps. It is 2.5" from the catback, after I drop in the turbo I'll split it into a dual 2.5" good...

to each his own, its your car. People are brutally honest about things on the internet. I've honestly never heard a stranger ever go up to my car or anyone else's car and say anything bad about it. Just because you hear people say good things about it, doesn't mean the majority of people like it. just sayin. I actually liked your TL early on, I just don't approve of that single outlet. Same goes with Eric's car.... I really like half the things he's done with it, the other half.... wtf?

You're lucky this isn't in ramblings.... one thing you don't want to do is tease the lions

Well said.

Why does making a car fast also result in making it look like shit? No offense stillhere but that looks ridiculously stupid.
