Today I applied a Lamin-X tint film. This was the lightest shade they had.

This same one is sitting in my garage, a friend had an extra one and gave it to me. I'm not in law enforcement, but like 75% of my friends are cops so I'm thinking it's appropriate.
my wife is a deputy sheriff - it's her vehicle, and she loves that I got this for the ExST :)

Picked up from a dealership. Missed the driving dynamics! Oil changed, coolant flushed, oil leak fixed, heated seat module replaced, blue screen recall updated, and tires rotated.

Well not today, but two weeks back. I have remote started the car from half way around the globe. Never thought it would work, so had a friend go near the car and confirm it.

This is how I found it, on the day I came back, after a month long vacation.

Did the same - crazy that I paid over $50 for 3 plugs
Agreed! The color match made it worth it for me.

FYI to everyone - I didn't have to make the factory holes any larger. The plugs fit perfectly in the factory holes even though they are a little smaller than what bumperplugs recommends. It was nerve-racking enough to drill out the plastic rivets... Glad I didn't have to drill into the bumper after getting the rivets out.

Love the clean look.

Being in CA, doesn't the state requires the front plates to be installed as well? Wish they kept the laws same (no front plates) across all 50 states.

I ordered custom plates for my 50 bucks. No idea about it's status though.

Heard about another alternative here

The front plate in CA, just like the speed limit, is only a suggestion. Gotten pulled over plenty of times in different cars and never once was a missing front plate mentioned.

On 3/10/23 had Borla S-Type Catback exhaust system installed. Midas was the only shop near me able to install without an appointment.
