I've found that lighter tints have a weird coloring to them. Unless they have a certain tint the still looks black at a lighter percent. but most dont and look awkward IMO.

looks good, glad to see your cl getting modded. Kinda busy for my taste tho with the red painted things, the striped headlights and the sidemarkers. if you could take the stripes out of those corner lights and paint the housing amber it would look 10x better IMO
keep it up![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
and are you gonna get any wheels for it or no?

For wheels, i'm looking at some Work Wheels XD-9s in bronze + falken tires. Probably before the wheels though, i'm working on my speakers. Looking into some rockford fosgate, and a pioneer avicz1 navi. We'll see! i'll definitely keep posting up my mods though. Holding off on tint for now, not sure what
percent i want!
P.S: mods please delete the post on top, my mistake on the double post x[

I kind like the red emblem on the trunk.
you need a full side shot from a back and front perspective
so we can really see what those sidemarkers look like

Look who finally lowered their car!

So far we just got the fronts on. The bolt that runs through the bushing in the lower strut is seized and we snapped it off.
I went to Acura and bought new bolts and bushings for a total of $81. We're going to do some heating and cutting and hopefully get the backs put on in a couple days.
They're Tein S Techs and KYB GR2's. It's a little bouncy but not harsh at all. I wanted it to ride like stock. Thanks to guys that helped me pick out the right springs.
