I had my tint guy put them on. Thing is with the '05 tails, there is a raise in the tail lamp, you won't have that problem though so your should be really nice. I plan on scrapping the tint overlays and having a guy in NY spray tint them, so there won't be any tint shown anywhere. For your tail lights you won't have that problem since they are flat, just apply them slowly, and you should be good. Also, get the air out, you can use a credit card to smooth the air out of the tint film. Just take your time ahha.

I just snagged a HKS Hi-Power for mad cheap, that will hook up to the Invidia V2 catless dp, and I will flash her to stage 2! She will be almost as powerful as a stock STi, and thats good enough for me for dd. All I need now is a heat shield and some gaskets. The catback will go on once its here, should free up some air.

The STi will be getting new parts in the next month, afte the normal bills are payed this week, its time to move on and get some more goodies, Full-Race sounds good or maybe Blitz ahah.

yes, i did mine. very lightly, it gets enough attention from the police...

i just discussed this with my woman, she said it would look nice if it was done more..

but ive used it on my bros LGT, my STi, my old civic and few of my buddies cars. 1 can is enough to do 2-3 cars.

Nice, I know a guy in NY that does this, and it comes out OEM, and the same tint shade as my overlays now!

Question for you experts:

If I install my APS DR-725 FMIC, and hook it up for Meth Injection, how bad would it be with my current protune with meth? Will it be harmful to fun the FMIC with Meth when my car is currently setup for the stock TMIC?

you should be fine with the fmic. it won;t run/spool at it's potential,but you'll be good. i ran for a like 1ooo miles before i got tuned for my fmic...for the meth i'd just hold off till you tune it.but hook it up to the point you only need to fill the tank for now. i don't know much about meth,i don't think i'll ever run it
