don't like them.

VIS fitment sucks.
CF vents are overkill. same with fuel door.
40th Ann rims aren't very nice. i think you are wanting the R3 wheels.

yeahhhhh.. i keep hearing the vis stuff isnt to good....

i think im gonna go with seibon.

and for the look im going for. the fuel door and the vents and fuel door are needed.

plus on GG, they wont be as loud than other colors.

and the 40th anniv are a big MAYBE now.

my rims atm are undecided .

Tinted front windows are illegeal because you can not see. Please keep it legal, you can not see motorcycles that well.

idk if its just me razz but i think everyone has tint all around .

but the car came with a light tint , that im starting to kinda like ..lol weird.

so more than likely...ill end up keeping it legal...

but i think the blue License plate bulb already ruins the whole legal thing, but im probably gonna lose that to.. hmmm...i have mixed feelings about it.

When people say "all around" when talking about tint, they don't mean the windshield. It's assumed because it's highly illegal and stupid to tint the windshield. I say 35% all around, but definitely don't have the windshield tinted.

The stock wheels are too narrow and have too high an offset. The 40th anniversary and R3 wheels are the same fitment (althrough R3s are 19"... and $1200 each). Save some of that money that you are blowing on CF vents and fuel doors and get some good aftermarket wheels with a lower offset. Trust me, an aggresive stance is going to do so much more for your car than some fake CF bits.

I got illegal tint. but it's 45% in front not 20% like the back.

I can see just fine out of 45% at night. 20%, not so much.

The other reason front window tint is illegal is because cops like to be able to see a suspect pulling a gun on them before rolling the window down.

Tinting the windshield is just stupid unless it's just a strip at the top.

go for it. Worst case, you get a ticket and have to peel it off.

when i say all around i dont mean the windsheild either but i think he means just tint in the front window in general.

the cf vent and fueld dorr adds up to like...200. not much savability there for some rims.
