Sorry to hear your situation but I'm sure you'll find the right car whenever you decide that may be.

As for tinting tails. I sprayed mine and they came out quite well and it wasn't that hard, ok, well I'm pretty good at spraying so maybe it might be hard for others but yeah, if you wanna play it safe, just take it to a body shop and have them do that or tint them.

As for the car, if it's only going to be a daily driver and for looks, go for the 2.5.

So the wing actually looks nice. He just sent me pics of it. I'm not sure how to post it to the forum but I will work on that. They offered to drive the car down to me since I drove up to them last time for nothing. All in all they knocked some money down and added a wing for free. So next Thursday is the new date.

Cool, if you like the wing then this worked out well for you. Just make sure you give the car a thorough once over before you sign anything. If its been shipped all over the place and modified at a different dealership it may have seen a few joyrides as well.

I think I can hold off a bit. ;) Is there any danger to debadging in cold weather? Starting to chill up here.

Warm it up with a hairdryer, I've done it with and without and it seems to help. But I doubt there would be any danger if you did it without warming it up.

congrats Justin! i just bought mine on September 23rd..a silver 2.5 S CVT and i just tinted the windows a week ago

i'd steer you away from tinting your taillights, it attracts a lot of attention because there's a very fine line between legal and illegal but still getting pulled over regardless sucks

Yeah I decided against it when I was presented with the opportunity. Btw, I'm up in Cbus but I'm from CinCity. Good to see some natives on here!
