I had a replica a-spec but it was made by a private company that makes replica Honda/Acura parts. I trust them more than Extreme Auto. Fitment was spot on. Not sure about Extreme's but I hear lots of poor reviews about their replica parts.
Oostevey has a replica kit, not sure from who though.

Not sure who tints the whole front-windshield but AutoLinks is a good store that many Aziners can vouch for

I had one a couple years back, the fitment was real snug, so tight u wouldn't even need brackets, maybe just some 3M tape. and because it was so tight it mite scratch your paint installing or removing. this lip is real firm n stiff unlike OEM plastic. I sold it a week after I bought it.

AutoLinks has a type of windshield tint where it's clear or a very light blue---and has all the benefits of "regular tint"

Not all replica Aspec front lip or all replica lip kits fits the same, but always remember you get what you pay for

Care to share about which company it is ?

And To the rest. I am not worried about getting a ticket for the windshield....
Just need to know a proper tint shop that will offer it. I will contact AutoLinks and see what this " stuff " is ....
