Hey guys! Lookin like we are gonna have some snow this weekend. All of next week is gonna be cold as hell too, highs in the low 20's. Here comes winter! 
I wanted to ask you guys where you went locally to get your windows tinted? I wanna get mine done here soon but thought I would see where you guys went and if you were happy with their work.

2. No need. Ill most likely have the front end from a UA7 though.
3. No leaking. The reason i would get fogging was from a old ass Silica Packet. That has seemed to go away though. Havnt fogged for a while now. But when it did it was a small line of fog and the bottom edge. Nothing like the whole housing being fogged out.

bah there wont be any snow, every time our weather forecasters predict snow they fail miserably and when they say no snow it snows like 6 inches. I'll believe it when I look out my window and see white ground lol

With a 6mt UA7 You can make around 295+ HP with Pre-Cat/Cat Delete,Jpipe, CAI, Spacers,Pulleys, Throw in ATLP and youll be close to 300hp if youre lucky.
Red guages.....you can keep em. Ill stick with Blue.

red gauges in the RSX = sick
red gauges in the TL = rice
dunno why, but the TL should maintain that luxury fit and finish and red just seems to racey for it

I like the RSX gauges but they're not amazing - mayb cuz im just used to how bright mine are...when i drive the rsx at night i feel like im in a cave sometimes. plus no nav and accent lighting i guess that makes it a lot darker.
i dont like the blue gauges so much in the TL maybe they should be cool and put all amber in...just cuz they wish they were JDM haha

yep take a pic with the plate on, take it to the judge or even the clerk and you're off the hook.

hmm I haven't had a ticket in over 5 years, however; Kyle heard the story I was one of the top offenders.
as for a front plate ticket I can't imagine they would actually fine you for it if you put it back on, you just tell the judge "I dunno" and comply.
If not then you must have a shitty record

eh you are gonna get BS when your out at 1am anyways.
I haven't had my front plate on since I bought the car in 06 and NEVER been pulled over, that includes never in Eugene, never on the I5 corridor, never in Beaverton, Tigard, Lake Oswego, Portland, or hillsboro and I've passed and been passed by lots of police.

Well I figured I would drive somewhere to in Portland to get it done, I don't mind going up there to get stuff done. Aren't many options around here where I'm at.

they do - but I wouldn't reccomend going there - not that they dont have a good tinter but because the shop is dirty/dusty and that will get in your tint and i dont think tony is big on re-doing all the windows on ur car?
ya its a $325 ticket...i got one twice...funny i got a warning then a ticket then a fix it ticket 3 times then probably like 10 warnings then a ticket again. i hate cops - but i do get pulled over often...im glad those tickets dont mess with ur ins rates ugh my 2 speeding tickets make it high enough

and yet guys still have higher premium rates with insurance.. youre a prime example of why women should be the same
hahaha. dont even get me started on tickets.. my rap sheet is so big the judges from portland and beaverton know my name..
and my top ten best thing i hear when i get pulled over is "your driving record is so bad i hate to write another ticket"

I've lived here since '03 and only been pulled over once. And it was in Corvallis, no ticket and no reason given. Must have been looking for someone with a similar car
Then again, my mods are internal
