And as for tips, tilt it forward before starting and push it forward. I disconnected my battery because I dont like doing anything involving airbags with power on.

Thanks for the response on the seat. I edited that post to include a question about oil type. My manual and the FSM both tell me how much and the API grade to use but not the wieght/type. Any idea?

All depends, mostly on your climate. 5w30 is safe pretty much across the board.

As for a broken seat! Wow. I'd be going to the dealer for that repair, that's a safety item, they have to fix it.

i color matched window trim, mirror base and door handles.. looks cleaner, but does it take away from the wheel or draw more attention to it... been staring at pics all day and been thinking i should get new wheels....

do you feel i should get new wheels?

I think the trim would have looked better in gloss black or left as it was, but i also like the body color concept, just not sure how i feel now that I've seen it lol. As for the rims, that's the main reason I'm in no rush to black out my chrome trim, because it really ties in the rims. Hard call, but nice work either way bro

Is the window trim body matched? I think your car looks spectacular, but I would have done the window trim in black like TunerMax said so that the JDM visors would blend in nicely...but on the topic of wheels, what were you thinking of? I think your car looks great, but your theme could pull of another wheel nicely


My "random little question": I'm getting tint tomorrow, I'm not getting the windshield tint because it's illegal, but anyone here have the "bar" or "strip" of tint on the top of the windshield? Should I get that as well?

I want to re tint and get that strip also.

And yes, MPG35, it does still look wicked, I think you just need time to adjust, it is quite a notable change. I do still like it. If you didn't have the JDM visors it may look better body colour, it's the visors that throw it off a bit.

Still looks good, unique. And I would keep the rims, I love them on your car.

heres some better views... i dont think it looks bad though just preferred it chrome bc it tied in more with the wheels...... i didnt know it would throw off the hierarchy of the car... at the end of it all im HAPPY on the outcome.... oh! and getting smoke tint overlays for the headlights and tail lights would tone down the brightness of them and tie the rest of the car together... THEN i believe that the wheels will get the attract all the attention in a more positive way! they are discontinued rare DPE aristo's which deserves to be recognized.
