That's probably the cleanest looking TL I've seen of that style. The treatment on the tail lights looks great. With the color scheme you got there, the photo almost looks black & white. Nice job!

Congrats on picking up the TL (still think that's the better design than the current one). Did you get the '02 and later model? I believe that's the one where the transmission troubles from previous model years were resolved.

Tranny issues were not resolved until the 2005 TL, the 3rd gen 2004 model had issues as well.

i would shave the emblem reading ACURA off, since the trunk is shaved( no license plate on it), you have the freedom to make it look clean. my cousin has the same car, and he shaved just the big A C U R A off and it looks twice as good

Thanks for all of the compliments guys 
It's a 2001- The last year they made the smaller headlights/no fog lights 2nd gen. The transmission issues were resolved on the 04 TL for the most part..i think that the number for instances of failures on the 3rd gen was very low.
