It was a must have. Put it off long enough. They turned out super fresh too.

I'm trying to yeah. Found a new set of wheels I'm looking at. Not sure what the build time is since they are custom but only if the Works sell. I love the VSXX and they are hard to come by in 5x120 20" but ready for a change. I don't mind keeping them either since I haven't seen it put together with my new additions. Decisions, decisions.

The demon eyes will be hooked up to a switch so they won't be on all the time. Only while hard parked mostly. They'll compliment the rest of the red on the car though.

Just applied for a partial wheel sponsorship with the company I am most interested in. Hoping they choose me.

<b> Update 3/3/2016 </b>

Landed the partial sponsorship. New wheels are going to take 4-7 weeks to build. Coming soon! Still have my VSXX's in the mean time.

Taken earlier today. Mix of Summer '15 with Summer '16. Can't wait to get my new wheels! Still need to wire up the demon eyes but I'll have it done this coming week.

I'm missing the amber, it looks too plain now. Dare I say dull? On the TSX I like the clear.

I definitely do not miss the Amber. Love the VLED 6k corners with the matching V3 Tritons. I also had the clear headlights on my TSX with 6k led corners. Everything will tie together whenever my wheels are done being built and arrive.

Sorry guys I'm blowing up my thread but the car is back out since its spring and the parts I have laying around are being installed. So gotta keep the pictures coming.

Messing around with the demons at night. Burst time I've seen my new lights on at night. I love them! The washed out DRL's aren't too bad but it would be nice if the matched the corners and switchbacks.

My favorite setup. No DRL's. I did snap some pictures without them but not the right angle.
The demons are pretty bright, the light up the road.

Haha thanks guys. Wheels are a month - month and a half out. Currently being built.

@potmilkz I know it's in my future plans. Found the setup I want and for a good price. Bought wheels first since they cost more and still on my coils.

Update as of today 3/31/2016:

Precat deletes installed. Was a productive day off. End result was a much louder and raspy exhaust note. Normal while cruising. When full throttle it screams down the road. I kinda enjoy it. Next, tune.

Tech day with the crew as we prepare for our first car show competition of the year next Sunday. Didn't have too much to do personally but I debadged the TL emblem, installed my red LED footwell lights after cutting out the center cap and pulled out my Ktuner for the first time and flashed tune 4. Loving the car more and more.

Also hit 10k miles today!!! Bought it new in November of 2013.

On to the pictures:

Feels great. Pulls hard and seems endless. Can't wait until I get it tuned. Got other things to worry about first though.

Competed at HondafestNW over the weekend and took home 1st Place Best Acura Sedan. Competed against 5 3G's. First time winning and first 4G TL to place at any local show. Probably because I'm really the only one that's modified to this level. Very happy with the outcome and still on my old wheels. Few pictures from the event:

Just a little update. Still currently waiting on my wheels. Should be complete next week. In the meantime I may have just landed sponsorship #2 with AirLift Performance. I'm trying to switch up my style from street to VIP so this would be a great collaboration with InfiniteWerks. I will keep everyone posted. We already got spring 2016 poppin.

Well I just got approved for partial sponsorship from Air Lift Performance as of today. I placed my order and the kit will be shipped out on Monday.

I also spoke with Tommy at InfiniteWerks and they are just polishing up the lips and wheels will be complete and shipped out Monday as well.

Can't wait!

Lmao thanks KarKraze.

Next big challenge is figuring out my trunk set up. Just a little mock up of the tank. Still need to pull out the compressors and module to finish the mock up.

Wheels finally arrived and tires tomorrow. Before anyone asks, since I know it's coming. Wheel specs are: 20x10.5 +11 squared. Tires will be Continental DWS06 245/35/20.

Wheels have brushed faces, high polished step lips, 24k gold hardware and candy red center caps.

Enjoy!

Tires were mounted today. TL gets dropped off on Saturday for air install. Wanted to install myself but I'm too busy currently so at least it will get done sooner. Almost ready.
