luxury? the exterior looks more like it belongs in a bet music video.
more aggressive drop, wheels that fit the luxury theme and not the chromed out theme, and normal door handles. and yeah a lip.

lol, like i said, look at any luxury vehicle or one that has the fully loaded options and you'll find chrome grills, door handle and rims. I know all of them don't, but a vast majority do... but anyways, everybodies entitled to their opinions. its all good.

I would probably agree... but if you say it looks better in person, it may actually. I'm really picky with wood-grain though. Other than the wheels... its pretty nice. The wheels look a little to 'flashy' if you will, for a luxury car.



These are a little smoother, which fits the luxurious style, imo at least.

I honestly see nothing wrong with the rims...Everyone has different tastes when it comes to the tc's look. When people see his tc their probably gonna be like "WHOA!! That tc be ballin"!! Rather than "oh..another tc trying to be JDM"...like i havent seen that before lol...Save your money and keep the rims dude. Shorty antenna and HIDs (if u dont have em already) and your done!!! Props.

Actually, if I saw a tC 'trying to be JDM', I'd just say "hahaha, ricers."

If I saw this, I would NOT think he was 'ballin', I would think he was retarded for putting chrome all over an econobox.

Exterior-wise, that tC is not "luxurious" in any sense of the word.

I'm not gonna lie, that interior looks real good. But the exterior looks kinda tacky with the chrome wheels and grille. Chrome doesn't always = luxury..

econobox? it's a tC not an xb. I don't think people who try turing tCs into sport coupes are retarded...it's just what they like. and i guarantee more "regular" people will notice mine over a "tuner" themed tC. tuners might not like it, but i'm all about the ladies and general population, lol. but i'm not trying to be ballin either. I don't get that ghetto stuff. (aka stick on finder vents and chrome trim everywhere)
