new mods today on new EX

Picked it up yesterday and today tinted it, changed the wheels and tires. Stock wheels and tires are for sale - tint is 35% sides and 20 the back. Wheels are Ruff 17's with Nitto 17 tires - next mod: light smoke tint on the tails...

Re: new mods today on new EX

I was thinking about the tail-light tint as well. Does anyone know if that is legal everywhere? I am in Ontario, Canada, I was just wondering if I did this, if I am looking at possibly getting into trouble with the law.

My other option is to replace the taillights themselves.

Re: new mods today on new EX

the light smoke I use don't even show up in a picture here from stock. But in person, the take the bright red out of the taillight leaving the ability to see them intact. I have it on my accord and like it very much.I'll use the pic above to do a before and after when I do it tomorrow...

agreed - I could not remember who I used for my Accord but it was HA, and it was easy. So I ordered Rvinyl for less last week and just tried to put it on...ok for pros but not me - threw it away after mesing with it for 30 min...just ordered the HA product and there is a reason it costs 3x as much - it works for normal people.....
