DC Sports EX-1013 they completely upgraded the look of the car. I wish we could've gotten the JDM tips stock over here. I was going to order the JDM ones but I just didn't want to spend so much money for tips. Especially since I plan on ordering an exhaust.

Installed an oil filter magnet at 125 miles to put my mind at ease during the rest of the break in.

Installed 2 12" Red LED strips in the trunk to make it brighter. The one trunk LED bulb wasn't bright enough..

Yes! This was the first thing I did when I got the car. Used the same image off of the internet, but customized it.

Valentine 1 radar detector. Considered to be among the best; personally a fan of a more complete solution like the STI-R Plus.

Bought a car cover and slimeline license plate frames...even though delivery of the vehicle is next week.

I think it looks sweet!
Thanks for the tip. Such a simple solution! Stopped at Staples last night, went home and did this in 15 minutes. Looks 100 times better than the plain black. Here's a before and after pic.

Got my windows tinted and installed my radar detector using the 12v outlet behind the glove box!

How did I not know about that power plug hiding in there?! Pics in my journal.
