....no that was not fixed yet either but will be soon. I'm actually surprised the Camera didn't catch mr. curb's wrath.

nugga? Is that a term for noob? I am going to ask again this week with the auto collison shop I went to to REALLY make sure its the price I got. Estimates don't usually mean THAT is the price correct (aka hidden fees)? If its cash price and I find out theres something wrong in the later run, I can't go back and tell them as there will be no receipt.

Hey Ogata what's the % of your tints?

[Ogata]

Hey Ogata what's the % of your tints?

Forgot...I think it was 38% front.......28% back...its the reflective kind which really accents my car's colour since the tints are slightly greenish..will take night pics once my Colour fogs are in.

Edit: How come I can't edit my original post thread? Is there another post limit stepping stone I have to face? It was a journey to obtain the edit button.

nice car dude + love the chrome handles.
where did you get the handles from??

You can only edit the same day you post I believe.

Thats what I thought too but when I compared it to my buddie's MS3, his car is lower but I get the feeling everytime I drive on the road why my car looks lower than say a standard 3 sedan or hatch on 16's and i find that they are higher...

It included when you add the luxury package

[kaval]

Your car looks FANTASTIC!
