Thanks! Ive been looking at a few different sets of wheels. i cant decide on the Hfp wheels or the ex/si wheels. i can get both brand new for pretty cheap.

I think that im going to tint the windows first. Then ill buy some new wheels and tires when the tires on my steelies are gone. ill replace them with snow tires for the winter.

just be careful on rim and tires, or it will look like a 4x4, and then you will need to lower the car, and all the madness mods starts

You would say that gearbox lol. I didn't notice that it wasn't tinted :P So yeah do that first because it's not too expensive but does a lot!

yea im planning on getting rid of the pin stripes when i have some free time. i still have an exam to take on monday then my car is getting tinted and i leave for vacation all really quick so it will have to wait till later this month. Im really not sure how they broke. i installed the passenger side fine and went to the drivers side and it snapped when i was bending it to put it in the channel. so i went to take the other side out so im not rocking one visor and it broke too. i guess i got a bad pair or something.

you can leave them in the sun next time so the plastic is more bendable. make sure its not cold out like below 60F.

Good luck with the residue. If you're having trouble, heat the residue up (i used a steam gun) and scrape it off with a credit card. Or, rub it with your finger to heat it up and it sticks to your finger. It takes a lot of rubbing and hurts lol.
