Hey thanks for all the compliments, I really appreciate them!
Here's are some of the answers to some of your questions:
The Tint is made by 3M and the color is charcoal.
Spacers: yes I do need them sometime in the near future...I hear eibach prokit spacers are decent.
Redouts: Yeah I really do enjoy looking at the tails a lot more! They took a couple of tries before I was satisfied with the placement--it wasn't very difficult to do--you also get a step-by-step guide. This actually took me about 10 minutes? I had a harder time puting on the stupid navigation screen protector than doing this!
F-sport springs: I really enjoy these on my car (with f-sport sways). So far I haven't head a clunk noise, yet. What's funny is I thought I heard one right after I installed it, but I guess I was just hearing things...now it's been a little over a week so far, so good.
The drive is so much better and the stance is more sporty...I kinda like the more subtle drop. The ride itself is still decent, but you can feel the road at the same time it's not that bad...the ride is fairly smooth!
ps the fsport intake sounds pretty mean! :P

Oh yeah, I bought the redouts from Aerotect, I believe...they were pretty fast with the delivery and price wasn't bad at all...like $15-20 dollars I don't remember, but that amount is a non-factor for the cooler upgrade you get.
The sways are one of the best upgrades I can really to do this car...and it wasn't that expensive..even though the front sways are not necessary, I still bought them....I don't know what my next project will be...most likely spacers.

Damn, nice '09! I was on and off about redding out my tailights on my '09 but chose to do other things instead. I guess I should've ordered the redouts when I ordered the center console protector and navscreen protector. BTW, have any of you tried or have the console protector? It fits great, it's easy to install (I removed the entire center console to put the film on, easier this way) and now I wouldn't have to worry about scratches on this super expensive part.
