Hi everyone! Im so stoked that I found a forum this sweet! I just recently bought a 2012 coupe!! And I have so many ideas for it!! But first thing first! I was wondering if you guys can help me find a smoked taillight wrap or tint. But I want it were the white circle in the taillight to not be cover!? Also another questions is that I want to change all my lights inside of the car to a red led, how do I changes those bulbs and where can I get the new lights? Thanks for all your help!!

P.s if you guys have sweet stickers or decals I would love some!! I'm a big sticker and decal person!! Please and thank you!!!

Welcome! First, you can get taillight overlays from Blue Batmobile. Installing them is extremely difficult. I messed mine up (not too bad), so I'm probably going to take them off and get them done at a shop instead sometime in the future.
To get to the lights inside the car, basically all you do is stick a butter knife into all the plastic covers and pry them out. All of the bulbs are 194s besides the dome which I think is a 3022, you should double check that though. You can buy them at vleds.

Thank you so much!!! Your very helpful! Have you done any proformance upgrade and your coupe? I have a 2.5 s as well and it's hard to find proformance parts for the l4 engine.

Thanks for your welcome! I'm located in Jacksonville, Florida. I was thinking about getting it vinyl wrap but I have see some new taillights that are LEDs and looks really sweet. But I don't know if it's going to void my warranty if I install them or not!
Plus I actually don't know how to post pictures yet on this forum still trying to figure it out . Lol any suggestions?

Taillights are not going to void your warranty.

Here is a thread on how to post some photos...

Well it is a 2.5 so don't expect too much. But I am going to get an exhaust and intake soon. I'm mainly going for visual mods though.

There is actually a thread called "aftermarket performance mods" at the top of this page. You'll find most of the mods available for an A/C up there including:

Coilovers
Exhaust
Headers
Tuners
Lights
Intake
Wheels
Brakes

And a few more things too.
