My thoughts exactly. Oh they must be hiding something, let me go see.

Could it be that they value privacy and want to preserve their leather interior, nah!!!

I have ceramic tint and compared to the standard tint, it actually looks a bit lighter if you compare them. 20% looks more like 30% at certain angles on my car; where the standard stuff looks really dark at the same percentage and angles.
Reaching for my wallet Oh wait that puts them at risk and I might get killed for it. The logic

Get the wallet out and in view before the officer arrives at your car. No problem.

Today I installed the Bell Raceworks Differential Brace.

And while the back end was wagging in the wind up on race ramps, I cleaned & polished the Fast Intentions mufflers and tips. Rusty axles look really rusty under the camera flash, but meh, it is what it is, and that's a Northeast car. However, after 5 years, the SS exhaust pipes are holding up pretty well, so that's something.

Looking forward to your thoughts on the brace.

Seems overblown because you're a law abiding individual and a simple car enthusiast. You would never think of reaching for a weapon during a traffic stop; someone with a warrant doesn't have the same mind set.

Dropped off rims and rubber at the shop yesterday. Install and alignment next week. Driving around in decent weather with snow tires is depressing

Never knew RI was no tint. In MA it’s 35% but I have a Benz in the parking lot at work with an RI plate that looks like limo all the way around.

Picked up my plates for my new to me monster truck today. Currently putting together a To-Do list for what I want to get for the car.

I got some cheap 4 piece set of fender flares from ebay that I was going to use temporarly. After starting on them today, I might just send it to a body shop I'm a little nervous doing this, and the side skirts might also be out of my skill set.

What I REALLY want to do, is these. If I'm going to a body shop maybe I'll just do it right the first time. Only problem is I'd have to save up a little bit which means no driving it still:
