thx, the tint is 35%, didn't want to go too dark in NY. Very happy with it actually.

The tail lights are film from lamin-x. Pretty tough to do for a newbie like myself, but hey I can say I did it myself.

The aerokit was done by the dealer... it was back in '08 before all the do-it-yourselves were available... would've saved me a few hundred.

Rh71,
Do you use two sets of wheels ?? One for the summer and one for the winter ?? Or just have all season tires on the wheels you have on ?? Thanks in advance.

yes, it will work. the center bore sizes haven't changed and neither have the offsets.
