Does anyone have any pic's of VIP inspired 07-08 TL's? My buddy just bought one, and he want's to do it up. thanks
The car is too sporty looking to be considered vip styled even when slammed on nice wheels. Doesnt mean its not a nice car though. My boy Rodney has his dropped on some nice fitting 20" AME FX wheels. I dont have pics though but someone is likely to post tomorrow
yeah, widebody, I agree with you %100. I just got'a tell him to get some air, and some nice staggered wheels.. Do you have any pic's of that red wide body TL with them deep wheels?
Here's one of my homies (Brian's) TSX, pretty much the same thing.... Best TSX I've seen! Show stopper at all the shows I've been to! :biggthumpup: [COLOR=#dbdbdb][IMG]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w308/o2bbabe/100_2466.jpg[/IMG][/COLOR] [IMG]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w308/o2bbabe/100_2467.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w308/o2bbabe/100_2469.jpg[/IMG] Here's one of the noob's There used to be a guy from austraila....(I think) on here w/ a nice one [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v330/x55rodrin55x/DSC_0484.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v330/x55rodrin55x/dumped.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v330/x55rodrin55x/DSC_0113.jpg[/IMG]
nice cars when tuned. but the body is way to sporty to even come close to a classy shape. but do your thang.
[LEFT]i dunno, i think you could pull it off in the modern exe/mag ad style (drop, nice wheels with bad fitment, vents, etc.:smiley-rofl:). i could see it turning out something like a ls460 (on a much lower level). most of the new cars look like transformers anyway.[/LEFT]
It can be done if your willing to dump more money then the car its self to pull it off the right way. All the aftermarket parts made for this car make the car sportier and agressive. Most of the parts would be custom but thats how the originators of the style started. heres what I would do: Fill in the body line on the side of the car (its way too aggressive) Create a less aggressive body line above the door handles Remove the side markers on the front fender and rear quarter panel Chrome the entire front grill Custom fit an LS460 front bumper with fogs Custom fit an LS460 rear bumper with tips Custom make some door caps pull front fender 1" Pull rear 2" (theres ALOT of room to pull) Radius rear 1/2" RL side mirrors chromed M3 hood vent Garson hood mascott No tint Chrome B piller on the door frame TSX chrome door handles 19x9 0 up front 19x11 -8 Air sus Still won't be vip but would make the car look 1000x times more luxurious

i dont agree with toning down the TL to give it lumps. it comes with angles and i say work with it. it wont be an LS, but then if you wanted an LS you shoulda bought an LS. you bought a TL so work the TL. it's a nice car with a perfect blend of luxury and sports. your VIP'd TL isnt gonna be textbook VIP but what it will be is a sharp eye catching ride that a business exec isnt embarassed to be seen in. and if that makes it unqualified to be posted on this site, then so be it. my 2 cents
