My rear tint is pretty harsh. I have no idea what it is, it came on my car, but it isn't the easiest to back up at night. I make do.

I believe in general, you can't put any tint on the front windshield. As for the front side windows, it varies from state to state.

I believe i have a thread about the headlights! i will post some more pics soon!! the projector pattern isn't all that great. Still give out good lights. LEDs works really well, Halos are a lil dim. Workable but i'd like them to look like a BMW's or Audi's light.

it's the worst in dark parking lots. if there's plenty of light, i'm ok.
I drove with all my windows up last night. It was a little darker than i expected, but i believe you will get used to it. Other than that, not so bad. Just make sure you look back with your eyes, and not just the mirror.


Thank you for your time guys!

I would get BC Racing. You can find them from Throwdown Performance for $999 last I saw.

I guess so, since we can tint Half of our front wind shield, due to people driving with the sun glaring in front of them as it goes down.

I thought you're parting out your car? or maybe I am looking at the wrong person

Love the rims and tint!

The emblem...well...ummm...I really dislike them. They may be okay on a better civic that a 16 year old is driving but not on your nice accord...IMO!

I almost bought those red emblems for contrast against the blue... but I sort of agree with everyone else on the black... doesn't bring out the look I'd hoped for.
