looks awesome man however I personally would have painted the sides of the opening too.

however it looks like they put the completely wrong pearl in it though from this picture.


looks like they painted it like Cadillac Escalade Pearl White instead of TL pearl white. I mean it has a blue tint instead of yellowish.

So maybe its just me but I wouldnt except that and I would make them redo it.

I think that the paint just took differently to the bumper since it's fiberglass. That's why I don't do Fiberglass. But this is one of the nicest Tl's I've seen on this board. I love it!

It would definitely look even better with a front mounted intercooler.

looks really good. those canards and splitters def fit on there well now. a lot better then how it was on the stock bumper.

too bad the fit and the color dont match. looks like there is a sizeable gap where the hood meets the top of the bumper. and the pearl, or the lack of, is not the right color.

took the words right out of my mouth....

i gotta say, the car looks muuuch better now. Still not a fan of your two tone paint job, but the body kit does make the car aesthetically pleasing.

Time for a FMIC!! haha

Looks great, man!! I have to agree with the others, though, the color looks a tad off (not that the rest of us with WDP don't have off bumpers, but this seems to be off a little more). Still,

good job -e-! Other than the off-paint and the small gap in the front by the hood, I think it looks good for your car. You have the right mods in place to pull it off.
Maybe you should just paint the entire car black so this paint mis-match will be less of an issue haha!

Ok now, stop diddle-daddeling and get to work on a functioning FMIC.
