    Tinted a headlight last night with Lamin-x. Might do the other one too.

    I like it. Which level of tint did you use? My headlights are already smoked, but I have some new clear tail lights on the way and I might tint them as well.

    These are the "tint" version which is the least smoked version. I think its about as much smoke as Id want, any more and visibility would probably suffer.

    My aftermarket headlights have a really light tint as well. However, the interior of the lights are black, rather than chrome. That makes them look darker without cutting the light output. I agree with not going too dark on the tint.

    I had an alignment and an oil change done, as well as had the beginnings of corrosion in the front of the rear wheels taken care of in preparation for sale... had the mazdaspeed sold for 12k, and then I backed out because I love it too much, despite having only driven it 10k miles in 4 years!

    Finally got around to applying the film on the other headlight as well as getting the much needed catch can installed. Also found a good spot for the Racing Mate decal I got from Adam.20181026_144352.jpg

    What did you buy/do to your NB? 2018 edition

    I put on a clinic in the rain at Atlanta Motorsports Park today. I took the 86/BRZ Club to school. ;) Former member Timtim riding shotgun and loving it. Choo-choo, mother truckers!

    Changed my Desno/Toyota COPS to a set of new (used) ones, as I had a misfire when cold and on high load. Changed the headlight bulbs (hi-beam) with yellow Hella units and the gauge cluster leds for warm white ones for that vintage look. Also changed the left hand tail light with a UK unit (and now I have a symmetrical setup, same as JDM NB2s), while replacing the reverse light bulb with a really bright LED from SBL. Photos after washing tonight!

    Needed a front hub, did some research, took a chance on a Centric ‘premium’ hub assembly. P/N 406.45006, made in Japan, includes stake nut. Posting because I know decent hubs are a crapshoot on origin. $84 on Rockauto, a little more on Amazon.
