Put my trunk back together after trying to find the remaining coffee beans. I taped up some holes that are supposed to have black stickers over them. I think some beans may have fallen inside.
Also, **** these:

Hey out of curiosity... what wheel and tire specs are you running on that? In particular, what offset are those wheels. It looks pretty good.

Awesome info... thanks! That's a very interesting setup..... so I take it both your front and rear fenders had to be shaved/rolled/pulled to fit those?

The fronts are rolled and the rears are rolled and pulled. The previous owner had already pulled and rolled the fenders to fit the cosmis xt-206r wheels and didn't do a very clean job so with these wheels all I had to do is raise the rear just a tad and it fits perfect. It does rub a little when I have people sitting in the back.

Looks great and about as low as I can go in the front on air (with 19") can it move?

Got some visors a few days ago. Had to wait to install them because of the hurricane in south florida. Now I know everyone says to go JDM but I saw these on ebay and they seem pretty similar to JDM for less than half the cost.
Issues I had with them:
1. They seem to get scuffed relatively easy. Saw some scratches, not sure if it happened during shipping or I did it while I was installing.
2. the front visors were a little bit short. In the last pic below you will see it does not go flush with the end of the door frame. Weird thing is the passenger side is flush and the drivers side isn't. If you don't mind the gap between the visor and the door frame then you would love these.
3. Think I hear a bit more wind noise. However it was more windy than usual so I will update further.

Pros:
1. Looks really good to me. I like that it is slim and not bulging out like the regular aftermarket type.
2. Had 3m tape and clips
3. Cost $64

Things to note:
it has a kind of bluish tint to it. Not sure how to describe it.

Would I buy it again if I could do it over? Yep. Happy with the purchase.
