@jdm4dr - I bought my TL bone stock about a month ago, so far ive just tinted the windows @ 35% all around and installed the OEM door visors. adding HID fogs this week as well
4300k personally.
6000k if it had to be one of those choices

Mine has been bone stock until this summer. Installed AEM CAI V2, ATLP cat back with an XLR8 high flow cat.

Plans for next year are getting the car dipped (hwy 63 has not been gentle, work parking lots also not nice....). May get new wheels, depends on cash flow. Definitely need to replace/upgrade my clutch/flywheel. But I'm gonna hunt or post to find out what the issue is.

4pm is good time for me.

just took the car out on my summers, drove it right back in, cant control my car at all...
i've always had my winters on ahead of time and the TL drives amazing on them, guess tires do make a huge differance

i got two sets of waffles so i'm using a set for winter now
thinking of selling the second set/summer tires and getting from 18s or 19s for next summer.
used to roll on 17 CRV steels for winter tho, everyone hated them haha

I'm rolling on Federal Himalayan WS2's. And they're pretty good, solid grip even on ice.

This is why Acura is better than Hyundai.
T-boned this guy last friday.
He cut across 3 lanes of traffic to get into a laneway.
cleared the bus, but not me.
fool.
Not a whole lotta damage to my front bumper, but it was cracked from last winter anyway.
his is gonna cost a hell of alot more.
all his fault tho.
so i will get a new bumper out of it.
haha

Yup, I'd never by a KDM car. I find a lot of Genesis coupe drivers are reckless drivers on the roads =/ Glad you're alright and car held up nicely.
