Kit looks great, didn't even know the rear had vents. Only thing I noticed is the part of the kit in the back wheel wells don't follow the curves as nicely as the front. Regardless, fitment is great! Definetly makes the TL agressive looking and OEM! Good job!

Rondy - That's beautiful! You did an awesome job with the kit!
Jinen - Looks great! I bet you're glad to have your car back, too. I see you got the 19's (good choice). Do you have a drop on your car?
cTLgo - I see what you're saying about the rear wheel wells...it's not that bad, though...if it weren't for the vents, I'd seriously be considering it (I know you can fill them in, but that's a PIA)...I love the one piece bumpers vs. the bolt on look of the OEM (duh, it's a bolt on)...maybe in a few years, who knows?

Well, I have the 18's...those wheels are from Rondy's car...I have the 18" Silver Inspyres...I'm just waiting for the tires to arrive so then I could have them installed...I'll take more pics when that gets done (probably late this week)...and ya I'm very glad to have my car back...hadn't driven it in 4 months so it was just fun to get the feel of the car...first thing I did was get a car wash cause there were dead bugs all over the front bumper lol and then I got an oil change...can't wait to go home today and check the car out

Damn, your car looks sick. Ill be getting the kit and a set of wheels myself in prob a few months. I just got bad luck with bumpers being damged, only yesterday i found some bad damage to my front bumper, it makes me real sick. great job designing the kit ron. jinen you are one lucky son of a bitch, but i guess thats what u get for giving up ur TL for a few months.

Yeah, the contracted company did a shitty job on the install, mainly because they used jinen's car to test fit a few kits, so they left out some clips and didn't dom it right. I am contacting them to make sure this won't be a problem with any of the other kits. from what i was told, they addressed the problem which was a few mounting holes that were 1/16th of an inch off. I was disapointed in a few minor details, but once again, we are taking care of the problem before the rest of the kits are finished, and even then, they can be fixed with some sandpaper in the prepping and priming stages. The car def has presence and the design is right on.

I read on your site that you are test fitting each kit. I must say Ron, that is some quality dedication. I don't think I have heard of any company that has done that. This goes to show the hard work you have put on this project to deliver a top notch product. Thanks again!

Rondy, please also let me know what we should do regarding my kit...I know you mentioned that you want to take care of the 25 kits first and I understand that because that is the most practical thing to do...however, once that is completed, please let me know what we should about my kit cause I don't want to be the only one who has a messed up kit, especially since I was the one who donated my car for this
Thanks

Its all about the options
RJ > AC.

I'm so bugged out and stressed to make certain that it is fine. i wish the kit production was as smooth as wheel production, jeez.
