The first thing i always do to all my cars is get it tinted since the Hawaii sun is brutal on leather and since the car was being shipped from Chicago to Hawaii i had more than enough time to buy led's, hid's for the fogs and 6k bulbs for the headlights. Wheels will be ordered once i know clearance
im a young female! and i hate the yellow lights 2! is making them all one color hard? did you install yourself? lol i hope im not asking 2 much

I think i spent around $1900. That was the best quote with the best time frame. I had quotes as low as $1200 but there was no guarantee on a delivery date.

yes it is still a fully functional trunk

I have not had warning lights come up. It just shows a blank where the spare tire is suppose to be.

I wanted to do a similar setup replacing the spare tire with this setup. With a smaller tank I know you'll have less air on demand but does that mean the compressor will have a longer run time and shorter life? I'm almost sure the run time shouldn't change but I do know it'll have more frequent shorter run times. I'm looking at all my options
