what tint did you use for the mirrors? i did it with the pacific mirror blue tint....it came out decent at best but just wouldnt stick at all. maybe it was because of the cold weather but where did you get it done or did you do it yourself?

I like the treatment of the grill... I have a 2011 V6 Tech and I have dual round exhausts coming out. How did you get that treatment... dealer of aftermarket?


Thanks

oem trunk lip pointedness looks awesome, like kinda menacing, imo.

otherwise nice ride, the wheels are by far the highlight!
