What kind of suspension you running? And is that the Aspec kit? I'm looking to do the same setup to mine. But I will have my wheels painted black.

Walking away from it, I look back at it a couple times to admire how good it looks =)

PS: I do this every time, it never gets old!

Didn't do all of this today, but it's been fun working on my TL again.

-Swapped out my Megan coilovers for Aspec suspension
-Alignment
-Installed Type-S center wheel center caps on good ol XXR 530s, Finally!
-Installed 5mm spacers in the rear
-Little touchup paint on rear Aspec lip

Also, I inspected my CAI and it looks like I may need to give AEM a call. Darn chrome plating is starting to peel.

Today: just drove and admired it. I also put on a new bike rack I just got in preparation for tomorrow.

Over the last month:
-Got an oxygen sensor replaced
-Installed LED turn signals for all four corners (VLED platinum) and the corresponding resistors
-Installed LED license plate bulbs (VLED 5k)
-Installed LED reverse lights (iJDMTOY 5k)
(I am now very satisfied with how the tail end of my car looks)
-Replaced my air cabin filter (and somehow knocked out my glove box light in the process)
-Fixed the subwoofer rattle
-Performed my first hand-wash

My TL hit 100,000 miles this afternoon.

I subsequently took it through the car wash due to the snow earlier this week, although I'd have done that regardless of the mileage.

I bought new wipers and am trying a two inch shorter blade on the passenger side to try and offset the misaligned factory wiper settings.

Power braked the car back and forth in reverse and drive and discovered that I have two bad motor mounts. Hopefully this is the cause of my clunking and off-steer.
