Came out real clean! Was it a PITA doing the mirrors? I figured it would be, so I used the tint spray. Yours have more of a smoked looked to them, I like it. How did it go cutting the film for the tails? What are your thoughts on the CF plate holder? I was thinking of getting one, but didn't know how good the quality was.

The pics of the mirrors make me want to stop being lazy and install the CF covers. Also your cf lip looks huge in the last pic, almost like the BS one.

The mirrors were very easy really. The gap on the corners really helps with the cutting. I was using a blow dryer for a heat gun. The Vinyl was really good quality and i could stretch it a lot so that helped too.

The tails now were a real PITA. I was scared cutting excess tint fearing i would damage it but patience was the key.

As far as the license plate holder i have it holding together with double side tape on the botton which is wide enough to cover it. Without it it doesnt "kiss" the plate but stays on top of it. Quality is ok i guess since chances of it getting damaged are pretty low

You lip looks like it sticks out a lot more than ours. It almost looks like the BS lip. I like it.

Wait, does the lip install over the bumper? If so, that's why it looks like the BS. My lip goes under the bumper.

lol but you still have the Type R right ? I used to race the Type R with few a mods on his with my CLK320 (slightly mod)...we were dead even (got him on the jump cause of the torque lol). I really like the sounds of the Type R . And in the same night I smoked 2 98/99 Civic Si (stock) really bad . It was just friendly runs I know them all .

I used to have a Si hatchback shell with a GSR motor. No AC and no passenger/rear seats. I miss that thing.
