Well i WAS planning on tinting the windows feb/mar 35% all way around, BUT, i just did my taxes and i owe almost 1k. So that kind of put a dent in my car fund. But sometime this summer i will get the windows tinted, i also want smoked or tinted sidemarkers. After that not really sure. It's all going to depend of if i buy an extended warranty. Mines up in sept. So i'm hoping since my car was a LATE 05 that the tranny issues where taken care of. But i would like to do an intake, pulley, and maybe a mild exhaust down the road. I really like the A-SPEC kit, but would rather have the intake, exhuast and pulley. I'm also thinking about typeS tail lights....not sure, i see alot of REALLY nice cars on here and it makes me want to spend money!!!!!!!!

OrlandoTL- Well honestly at first i was freaking clueless..So i kind of messed around with the first one a little bit. Finally figured it out. My problem was i was dicking around with the film and a little bit of dust/dirt got stuck to the film from putting it on and taking it off. so there are some very small bubbles on my right one. You only notice it if your right up next to it. Otherwise it looks just fine. The left one i was very careful and it looks GREAT!!! no marks, no bubbles!

What i did was i lined up the back end and then took my fingers and just inched it on very slowly to make sure i did'nt get a bubbles or wrinkles. its kind of hard to explain. While holding the end in the air i just rubbed my fingers forward with pressure to force any air out.I took my time, i inched it on, took about 10 minutes a headlight. The film was a litte big. It was maybe 1/4 inch to tall. So i lined up the top and let the excess hang over the bottom near the bumper. Then i just took a knife and trimmed the excess. Theres enough room between your headlight and bumper to fit a knife or blade.

Hope this helps. If not pm me and we could talk further.
