Today, I got some Hüper Optik ceramic 30% installed all around and removed the rear badges. This weekend, I replaced the dome, map and trunk lights with LEDs. I need to find some that fit better in the map light though. Here are some photos of the new tint.

Next up, a good wash, clay, polish and wax. Then... I don't know.

Here are the pictures with the dealer license plate off, drilled holes and inserted the bumper plugs into the bumper.
Ah, I wish Texas didn't require a front plate. It looks so clean! :thumbsup:

These fit but are a lot more expensive than the 10 pack of 6th gen Yorkin I purchased initially.

I have heard that the 5rh gen Yorkin are smaller and will fit, but I can not confirm that since I went the other way. the JDM's are quite a bit brighter.

I got my interior lights and trunk light changed over to LED's
I got the Honda OEM window vents installed,
I added another set of locking lugs to the tires, I was misinformed on these, they are 12 x 1.50 not 12 x 1.25
I had planned to have the driving lights changed over to LED's but I was given the wrong info and the LED driving lights are H8
And I had been told it was H11, which doesn't fit.
So I ordered new LED H8 lights and hope to have them installed next week

Looking good there, @RedTouringMA ! I really like the red-and-black look with the tinted windows and vents. Very nice.

Thanks!
All I have left to do is replace the driving light bulbs and put in LED's and she's done for now :)

Those are on my list, too. I'm looking forward to seeing how yours turn out.

Two sets of wheel locks???
When I got my new tires last week, the guy warned me I should have 2 sets minimum, because rims get stolen off Civics at insane rates. He said the more you have on, the harder it is for them to steal. So I habe 2 sets on and may add a 3rd.

Just put Sylvania Silverstar zXe HP halogens in, high and low beam, A lot whiter than the stockers.

By the way, the stock bulbs are Sylvania bulbs as well, just in case anyone was curious.

Aegean Blue is soon nice, and rare. Has the Huper Optik Ceramic tint interfered at all with the radio signal?
