New Updates to my Type S

Well decided I would post some of the updates that I have done. I have a lot more to go this week but so far I have:

XXR 530's 18x8.75 (Front) and 18x9.75 (Rear)
Firestone Firehawk 225/40R-18 (Front) and 235/40R-18 (Rear)
H&R Race Springs and Koni struts
Weather Tech Window Deflectors and Sun Roof Deflector
10K HID Heads and 3400K HID Fogs
Blue LED DRLs
LED Switchbacks
Red LED bulbs in all of the interior lights and trunk
Razo Shift Knob
Powerstop Drilled and Slotted Brakes and Pads
5% Window Tint on all windows
35% Window Tint on Windshield with a 5% Strip on top
iSmart iPhone Adapter

That is all I can think of at the moment. I have a lot more to come this week and will be adding more pics with updates.

Let me know what you guys think!

Great work so far! I was stuck between those rims and the te37 replicas made by either miro or varrstoen. Decided on the Miro 398, we can compare pics since I have a silver type s also.

Car looks good! Can you see out of it even during the day with that dark of tint around and on the windshield? lol No one is looking in that's for sure!

Does MS have any tint laws? I have 10 or 155% on mine (was like it when I bought it) and I'm always scared I'll get pulled. SC is 27% min and they don't joke around.

Why anyone would tint the front window is beyond me... Now u can see so much less at night. Looks better I guess buti won't look better when u end up crashing cause u can't see out the window.

I think this is why I wear Sunglasses lol

Sorry when ppl jeaprodize their safety along with others for looks,it kinda irritates me.

Yea our tint law is ridiculous. I have migraines real bad and have a doctors note for my tint. That's the reason my windshield is done. I get pulled over often but I have a tint release and it gets me out of trouble

Nah you're good bro. I understand. If my windshield was any darker I would agree with you 100%. I ride a motorcycle so I know where you are coming from. But I have NO ISSUES seeing at night. Visibility is still 100%. Like I said above, I have horrendous migraine issues and the tint is what helps. I have to have it plus my Coastas on at all times. Sucks but it is what it is.

In Cali the only thing the tint release gets you is the drive and passenger side fronts oked to be tinted. Front window never, Cali list it as a safety and well being issue for your self and other motorist. They will impound your car for it.

Eh, I like them. I shot them and played with the filter when shooting and this was my result.
