Yea I love black headlights on anything unless there's no other black on the car lol. On mine the tint sucks and isn't very dark and all the black trim is faded lol. So I'm going gunmetal but I have a backup bezel from a donor housing that I'm keeping chrome just in case because chrome is clean as all hell

Today I started measuring so I can make a template for my carbon rear seat and also the trunk mat. Also I'd like to say how much I love my RPF1s. They are so light I can just put them around like a pet.

New E-brake handle, Strut mount, and new winter shoes. Also started pondering an interior overhaul.

I thought about it... but with my luck I'll have poor fitment, or condensation issues.

My OEM lights are flawless and fit like a glove. Maybe one day.

Found a place in my neck of the woods that does HP tunes for $250, but they don't have a dyno and also I haven't heard any reviews/comments about their tunes. But he said he'd update the tune for free any time I add new parts (it's bone stock right now).

Should I do it for $250 or drive an hour and pay $450 for Justune in Kansas City?

Think I could talk to him in person and figure out if he's done them before, or would he just say he has? He seemed to know what I was talking about when asking about my car, he didn't even ask what LNF was

Apparently he mainly does LS motor swaps and probably tunes LS motors. So I dunno if he tunes f/i cars

Most people who do lsx swaps can't tune LNFs. For what it's worth. Stay away.

I don't really know what to do with them, that's how I received them when they were made for me.

I guess take them apart and try and reseal them.

If there's one thing I hate about my car it's the headlights, but seeing that makes me leery of getting retros haha. Plus they're expensive as ****.
