Nice! A little pricey though.

Yeah lasers were a bit much...but they can be turned off and removed when I'm not at shows.. I made sure they're mounted in inconspicuous locations as to not draw attention when there on... an easily removed for day to day driving

Yeah but the light they put out not too mention the lifetime warranty... then it makes sense.. the leds "fogs" look cool but they don't really cast any light.. the rigids are really functional

Yeah... thanks for the complements.

Don't use wax. I only/exclusively use Wolfgang paint sealant. It's simply awesome and more long lasting than your typical Carnauba wax. I apply it once a yr and on my last vehicle it last for over 3 years! It imparts a deep mirror glaze that looks better than the best Carnauba wax money can buy

To me a sealant is an integral part of my detail. I use a sealant during every complete detail and always finish with a carnuba wax. I find the sealant sets up the wax for the maximum possible gloss while the sealant offers the best protection.

These came with the car. It's a Sport.

I'm thinking of hardwiring my V1 using a mirrortap and blendmount.
I also plan on doing a muffler delete. At the very least the very rear mufflers if not the resonators as well. Any comparison points?

From what I've heard you want to definitely leave in the resonators to avoid the dreaded highway drone.
