I like the rear one too because it kind of fills the area around the exhaust tips. I can't figure out why there is a big black area and it is not body colored

Proof positive that the front underspoilter alone looks mint. Don't know what the other guy was smoking who said it was ghetto w/o the whole kit. True, the whole kit adds that certain sportiness to the TL, but all I was disappointed with was the front end.

The kit was ever so easy to install. Requirements: Jack, power drill, scotch tape, screwdriver, half a brain .. and not even the entire half. Oh, and a buddy to help mount it once it's ready to go onto the car. Total install time = 1 hour b/c I'm slow and meticulous, can be done in 1/2-hour.

I also personally cannot see how ANYONE can buy this car without the A-spec rims .. they are so money.... so very very money. I get looks probably just b/c of my rims ...

Moreace .. thanks for the props... don't know about the rear skirt .. i may end up getting the entire kit over the course of next year, but as of right now, i'm content w/ this car as is. No rush.

it looks real nice PeterUbers. but from pic 2 i think the side skirts would help match the lines a little better. i know i said that it would look fine with just the front but the sides would connect the front nicely. either way it looks sharp.

Looks good with only the front kit!! Any gap between the kit and the front bumper? I saw one in the dealer 2 days ago, so many gaps on that TL.

Agreed the rims are money. Reason for not getting them is simply $$$. Expect w/in a year

Yes, there were gaps in the front spoiler and the actual bumper -- i think a lot of this has to do w/ the cheesy double-sided foam tape they use to adhere the edges of the underspoiler to the bumper. The underspoiler is very secure underneath the car w/ bolts and plastic plug-dowels, so there is no worry of it flying off .. but the fit and finish leaves something to be desired. Unless you get up close, you won't notice any gaps.

I think it would look a lot better with the front and rear underbody peices.

WOW that looks great. The front spoiler only was something I was debating as well, now I know it looks great (not unfinished as some have said). I personally do not like the rear spoiler as I think it detracts from the lines of the car!!!

Congrats car looks sweet!

Why no back shots? In my opinion, those are real important 'cause that's all that other traffic will be seeing.
