Here is my 02 Si, with the following mods:

1. AEM CAI.
2. Greddy Evo Exhaust.
3. Eibach Sportlines.
4. 17" Konig Glides on Kumho Supras.
5. Carbon Fiber hood.
6. Neuspeed short shifter.
7. MOMO black leather boot.
8. MOMO Competition shift knob.
9. Tinted windows.

I also removed some badges and put on that white windshield sticker. I'm going to for a clean, black and white look. My next plans are a new grill from grillcraft and rear wing. I'm also looking into some Hondata parts. I like the flash idea, I'm just worried about reliability. I am averaging 3,000 miles a month, so I really drive this thing.

Thank you. I just washed and waxed her before taking those pics, so they came out really nicely.

What do you, or anyone else that's reading, think of those dealer installed white rubber moldings along the door? They came with the car, but I'm thinking of pulling them off.

Thanks for all the compliments on the car, it's good to hear after all the money I've put into it.

In regards to the tint, I get harassed all the time. I am going to have to remove it. I may go back and have a lighter tint put on, because I love the privacy.

But I get pulled over at least once a month (3 times last November), so it's not worth it. I've been stopped by regular local cops, but also state troopers and a sheriff!

You would think law enforcement (especially state troopers) would have something better to do, but I guess not. I'm sure they are protecting the public by forcing me to remove the tint so others could see all the illegal things I do in my car.

You know, like talk on my cell phone and pick my nose. Actually, I did have sex while driving down the highway, and no one seemed to notice. Man, I'll miss those tinted windows...

The reason you keep getting pulled over is because it's illegal in the state of IL to have your driver and passenger windows tinted at all

In IL you can have side tinted windows but they can not be over a very small amount. My car is at max for IL.

Do you have any pics of the back of your EP? I'd like to see how the greddy Exhaust looks.

I know the tint is illegal, but I had a 00 Si with tinted driver/pass windows and only got stopped once! And that stop was simply for a black cover over my rear plate. Once stopped, though, he noticed the windows, lack of front plate, etc, etc.

I would still recommend tinting them, just not completely black. I will most likely switch to a lighter tint and see how it goes.

And I'll get a pic of the rear, the Evo exhaust looks great. I like the look much better then the angled HKS I see so much. I had the Evo exhaust on my 00 Si, so I am kind of partial to it.
