Nice rims, you should black out your tail & head lights then it would look super tight!

edit: wait a tic... you got a 04 rear bumper on NICE
edit round 2: wait 2 tics... I knew that, Im so retarded, I posted on the thread that you told us that oh well, sweet car anyways, lol

>_< ... maybe when i get some teins ... i dun wanna drop the hayame's anymore...doesn't seem like they are too "happy" when dropped too much, they bottom out quite a bit.

but honestly, i like the ride at its height, no worries bout scratching, or going over speedbumps at 1 mph...i just fly over them (probably not a good thing to do) ^_^

is there any place that tints windows with actualy chemicals? like dipping the glass in hot tint solution? (like how u tint eye glasses at your local optometrist)

i'm not found of the sticker tint, though i am very interested in getting my windows tinted that's for sure...i'll have to get a doctor's note first for the fronts just in case the cops try to give me a fix-it-ticket

thanks for all the feedback guys, its a good feeling looking at your car and loving it, but it gets even better when other ppl appreciate it as much as you do! ^_^ (i hope that didn't sound weird to anyone o_O)

i just got sticker tint and it looks really clean. 35% all around and it's still dark and nice. Only thing I don't like is the front windshield doesn't match, so I need to find a way to get that done too

^^^ that's exactly what the tech at discount tires told me! ^_^ i do agree too! but i want the taller sidewall, for efficiency purposes, and safety for my rims (curb protection). also, it was the best balance between performance and mileage. Turns out the pirelli p3000's don't have much handling, all they have is incredible tread rating. The yokohama yk420's have a better handling rating, but only 60k miles (still good tho, compared with my old 205/45/17 with 25k warantee >_< ... no more blowing 4-500$ every 20-30k miles on new tires
