I'm thinking about swapping the orange side markers for smoked ones. Anyone know where I can get a set of genuine ones?

3M CR tint, 50% all around except front windshield.
However, I'm now a bit concerned about my rear defroster lines and wonder if the tinter messed them up. The top lines look odd and a couple of them aren't connected (pictures attached). I haven't noticed them before so no idea if that's how they are (which would be strange that two lines aren't connected) or they were messed with. Could someone check theirs and let me know if this is normal?

Tried a carbon wrap on the inter cooler grille. Since I have the carbon look rear diffuser, this balances the front.

For my first attempt, it was ok, but I'm going to re-wrap it at some point.

That's the strangest defroster lines I've ever seen. Is that really a US model Civic X? Yes, there must be connections in the lines for current to flow. I've only ever seen heavy vertical lines going down the far left and right with thin connecting horizontal lines. Never seen anything like yours.

Those are supposed to be embedded in the glass. I think you will be ok.

They're not defroster lines; the ones at the top are the radio antenna.

Oddly on the EX-T and up that has the shark fin antenna that area is just empty instead of the defroster going up the window all the way.

The black Sport/Touring definitely got old pretty quickly (hence why I sold it)! I love the Si's silver tone, miuch better.

Love the Z too.

If you have the funky trunk lip spoiler, it wont fit unless you take the lip off and then you have 6 stupid holes in your trunk exposed
You could use gorilla tape to seal them. The light bar comes with a gasket and will cover those holes.
