Do they still pull people over for that? I want to do that but I may re think that if the cops are going to be in my ___ about it.
It's illegal in all states. All OEM headlights are DOT approved with a strip of amber on it somewhere. Tinting that would be illegal. Hell,it's even illegal to swap out the headlights with JDM OR Euro counterpart that has clear corners instead of the amber. Same goes for blacking out thetails. Whether you get rolled for it depends on your luck.Originally Posted by mrscampbellakasarahlee

Oh OK. Do you have any pictures of the car? I'm trying to get some different ideas together for a paint job when I get a car.Originally Posted by mrscampbellakasarahlee

Did you try Cars.com?
Even at invoice, the new Z is quite expensive. I was looking at a Touring with sport, illuminated sills and navi. At invoice and tax, title, andlicense..it comes out to be around $40k. The Z does look great..inside and out. And the performance is there too. I just don't know if I can live with asmall hatch for storage. That's my only hold back.Originally Posted by iBlink

Heck no. I wish. I'm looking to get into one by my 21st birthday though. Either an '09 370 of an '06 350 for around 10K.
IMO, the Z's a great look if you don't mind 2 seats. But you're in a sick 3 series, so it's a win win for you I guess.
yeah sorry i don't have pics... and Wj4 is right...(regarding the tints), i was lucky all those times(and being a female helps), so if you do any customizations on your car that are not legal, or have to meet certain standards just be prepared for thosetickets/citations.

Contact Sam at South Coast Mitsubishi. A grip of folks traded in their IX's for the X's. I still think you should heavily reconsider. My friend has an Evo specific shop and he bought a IX MR for dirt cheap for some crackhead on the board. They're about to switch out the ****** with a 5speed one. It's cool and all to say 'my car is a 6 speed', but that's all it has to really offer. Besides the aluminum roof and the cheap OEMgauges that 100% of the people replace with more useful ones..not really worth it. Yeah you can say it comes stock with BBS wheels and Bilstein suspension,but again 100% of those people go with better coilovers and wider wheels anyways.Originally Posted by LimitedRetroOG

Yeah. Only one IX MR. Gunmetal for $30K...
Brakes? They're only different on the X. The IX GSR and MR got the same brake systems, man. And suspension...if you wanna do it right...gowith KW V3 and get it Robispec'd. The 6th gear on the car is not that useful as the car feels like a Civic under 3k RPM. It's your money at the endof the days, but I'm just putting in my 2 cents of all the times I've been in the Evo world and still have friends who are heavily into it.Originally Posted by LimitedRetroOG

Cuz I want the 6 gear, brakes, and suspensions the MR has.
