Looks good.
Me too, in my 40 years of driving on public roads, the only trouble I ever had with tint was back in 1983. One of Bowling Green, KY's finest pulled me over (on my way to court on another issue) and MADE ME remove my tinted license cover on the side of the road with the only tool I had on me, a dime! He stood there and watched. Total jerk on a power trip. Threatened to ticket me if I left with it on though I had done nothing else wrong. It had been on for a year and nobody had ever said a thing about it.

Did you buy them for the from and rear? R1 website only offers blank rotors for the front for my 14awd.

Since I put the carbon fiber insert for the trunk emblem, I did the same for the steering wheel emblem (also as a small accent piece for the interior).

Nope, just the regular matte wood smooth finish that comes with the non-Fsport and non-Lux models

Ugh. I am looking for the open pore for my 2013. Not sure I'm going to find it

Did you change your floor lights (Dont know the correct term lol), to higher output LED's? Mine seem so dimmed even when the doors are open. Nothing compared to yours! Love the brightness.

Yes, I actually added a small LED strip that I tapped into the existing small OEM led bulb for each side. So you when put it in drive both oem led bulb and added led strip will both dim as well. I got the LED strip (5k color) from VLEDs and here is there updated version now: http://www.vleds.com/shop-products/a.../pcb-14-c.html

Yeah, that one looks cleaner with a lower profile, but also a little more pricier. The one I got from ebay is real carbon fiber and was about $16 shipped.

Most people don't care to have their [dusty & dirty] floor mats and shoes all lit up like they are on display.
