Terrible Pictures of my Spec V

Yes, the lighting is shit. Showing off the newly refinished stock wheels. Don't pay too much attention to the wheel gaps, that is being taken care of soon. I'll get some better pictures when I get time.

Any plans for tint?

[ANeonRider 3]

Already tinted on the back 3, front 2 are not legal, but I might tint them with 35% anyways.

Ordered Tanabe NF210 lowering springs (1.3"f/1.1"r) yesterday to kill the wheel gap & I need to find a replacement for the stock muffler (corrosion) without adding any loudness (actually, quieter would be nice).
