Default Day 5

Thanks Elizabeth ! I'll make sure to drive down when the car is done and we can go for a spin.


UPS left a delivery note today. Several boxes, Oh boy !

My only mod today is a JDM antenna. I saw a shorter / slimmer version on Solo's car, does it actually get good reception ? FYI , I need to listen to AM too.

Default Day 6: Window tint

Got the Car tinted at AutoMall Tint Factory in Fremont. They have tinted all my family's cars for 10 years.

The tint gradually gets darker as you go to the back of the car. My past 3 cars had this set up. Never got pulled over for tint (Knock on wood).

Suntek Tint: 50% front door, 35% rear door, 30% rear window.


Sides

Default Day 6: Continued

Rear : 30% I usually go 20%, but this time I decided to go for a little lighter in the rear cuz my eyes are not as good as they used to be.

Look at the website. www.xpel.com

It's guaranteed not to peel or yellow for 4 years.

Gee rominl, I'm worried about you. This long distance thing with your wife is starting to affect you.
