Found out that some idiot dented my passenger side door and chipped some of my paint last night!!!!! :banghead::cry:
Ouuuch. Standard pdr is going to have a tough time with that....looks like a pricey repair potentially. People are jerks sometimes.

looks worst in pictures than in person but defiantly not a good way to start off the day

from what I can tell it was some drunk person on a bike that lost his balances and crashed into the door since there was this shoe print on the bottom of the other door. looks like he landed with his elbow knee and handlebar

Shit happens I guess no use in getting too worked up over it.
I'm shopping around for a good pdr guy. Still don't know if I should fix it or tint the car then fix it :/
Damn sorry to see. That will be a tough one for PDR to take out. The flatter the surface that the dent is in, the easier a repair is. Probably little difference when you get tint done (before or after fix), but maybe wait until after since the car might be in a body shop and out of your possession for the repair, so tint could possibly get scratched by people working on the car especially if they have to work around the window or remove the interior door panel to work on the dent.

I got winter tires installed today (Michelin X-Ice XI3) on steel rims and threw on some wheel covers. Here's how they look.

Thanks. Now I'm in that weird situation where I don't want it snow since that would mean shoveling, bad road conditions, sand and salt. But I kinda want the investment in winter tires to pay off. Kind of like when I bought a backup generator.

Got 15% tint all around and a 12in Kenwood with a active line converter to tap of the rear speakers. Sounds like whole a different system now :)
Nice! Hard to tell, but it doesn't look like you plan on ever putting a suitcase in the trunk. I am trying to figure out what kind of sub to put in my EXL. Would you be willing to post more details and pics of your sub, how it's tapped into the rear speakers and how much space it took? I have been toying with the idea of just putting a compact powered sub under the passenger seat or maybe just a tube in the trunk to save on space.

Today I got my windows and moon roof tinted, and had a clear wrap put on 1/3 of the hood and also on the head lights.
I'll eventually clear wrap more of the front, but I did what I could afford for now.
