Are you sure that kind of tint is allowed in PA ?
Certainly not where I live. Cops would go crazy about dark tint on driver's / passenger doors with any dark tint. Basically here in Cali, windshield and front door side windows no more tint than what comes from factory on a car is allowed. Anything goes for rear 1/4 windows and/or rear back glass. And, do they have actual sun in PA at times ? Window tint darkness in Pennsylvania Windshield: Must allow more than 70% of light in, any darkness on top 3 inches. Front Side windows: Must allow more than 70% of light in. Back Side windows: Must allow more than 70% of light in. Rear Window: Must allow more than 70% of light in.

Sun is definitely a commodity these days ![]() I've lived in pretty much the same area my whole life and I know the LEO attitude in the area. As an example, I was followed for about 4 miles a few weeks ago by a state trooper... probably long enough for him to run my plates for warrants and such. He finally decided to pass me on the left, waved and gave a thumbs up. He was probably more curious because the car hasn't been out much and it was the first time he saw me. Other than the tint and lights, the car is stock... and will mostly remain stock. My wife and I do have an over/under bet on how long it takes me to get noticed in the wrong way. All that said, I am not recommending it's for everyone but it is a risk I am willing to take. |

Did an oil change, swapped air and cabin filters. Then switched out some interior trim to Toyota OEM black and OLM carbon fiber. Pretty happy with how it turned out. The side pieces on the dash are brutal tho. Took me way longer than it should have to get them back in place. I should’ve done more research before I started dismantling everything, but to get everything out/in smoothly in the center of the dash you have to pop out the usb piece first through the bottom/right side and start loosening the center console with the push button panel out first.

Hey my twin, makes for a Nice 2 tone! Don't forget to lower those wipers before putting WWasher in. The hood WILL scratch... Presently raining here, I suppose you will be sending the white shit my way soon... Mine is still in its refrigerated garaged (I think) till I can run with the summer tires.. |

I like that RED theme already going on stock! Had signed on 18 of March, was already on next order in from my dealer at the time. I wanted delivery only after the 10th of April because our roads & winter drivers suck. There was an '18 Red available at another dealer in January at the time in the showroom but I passed over even if that deal got really tempting with their offers. My last RED car (89 Civic SI)was a vehicle owners nightmare that I kept 12 yrs Vandalized every other week, Major Rear ender by a truck, Stolen recovered X2. Learnt about how to start cars with no keys... Master relay issues... |

Last week. SPL subframe mounts. Swapped out my Flex Z's for RCE T2's. Cusco diff brace. Front lower control arm bushings. WL bump steer and roll center correction kit. Swapped front sway bar end links from Perrin to WL. The Perrin's are wider where they mount to the strut and where hitting the inside of the tub.
Today. Installing bluemoon baffle and killer B pickup in the spare motor. Going to try to get it swapped this weekend.

Washed it for Caffeine & Octane tomorrow. Then went to the P.O. to pick up some parts I ordered.

The adjustability is a nice option but I ended up sticking with OEM height. Per their instructions raising the subframe in the chassis will reduce traction on corner exit.

I have the Whitline inserts installed and while nice the ass end still feels a bit "Squishy" Did you use the rubber pieces top and bottom? |
