Tinted the rear side windows yesterday. Going to get tint for the rear window and maybe install today if it doesn't rain as forecasted.

Also listened to a dude at another auto parts store tell me how black cars fade, gave two examples of some dudes with black cars that use the product, and that I should buy some product that they sell to protect the paint.

Then I thought to myself, of course it'll fade if you don't wash and wax it regularly. I got in my car and drove off.

Very Nice! I like to get the 18" wheels too. Did you trade-in the original wheels with the dealer or some other places? How much that cost?

Installing Headlights (HIDs)

Do you have a service manual link for installing headlights. I would like to use it for installing the HIDs. So I know where all the clips are to take off the bumper properly.
