Ok po ba yung magic tint?

Personally, in terms of looks, di ko type ang magic tint. Some parts of our glass kasi is covered by pillars or other structural and cosmetic parts. In the silver car above this is evident by the black border around the windshield. If magic (mirror) tint is used mas obvious ang black parts na 'to. Using the hobo OEM hides these black areas dahil almost similar shades lang sila.

In terms of heat rejection angat pa rin ang VK tint. Improved din ang security in daylight dahil marereflect ang sunlight against the observers' eyes. Di ko lang talaga type ang itsura. If I go VKool I'll get the OEM tints.

Just my two cents though

Sir Geo
Hows the driving at night?
Di ba madilim yung windshield?
Yung sa akin 3M light lang yung sa windshield
Nahihirapan ako magdrive sa gabi parang sobra dilim
Malabo narin kase mata ko hehe.
Balak ko palitan ng vkool....
Ano po marecommend nyo?
Ok po ba yung magic tint?
Thanks

Driving at night is A OK. Di ako nahihirapan at all but possibly because nagpalit ako ng bulbs for the headlights. Inside the car, para rin naka light tint ang K14 so baka walang masyadong effect yun sayo. Of course, perfect pa rin ang tintless or any clear tint if talagang malabo na ang mata mo. If you have the moolah, i suggest the VK series. Yun siguradong perfect para sayo un at mataas ang hear rejection.

Yeah at first di ko rin type ang magkaibang color ng tint but i want something na hindi ako masyado kita infront whenever i'm driving. Solution? Pakabit ng magic because ung light or med sa windshield eh kitang kita pa rin ako pati passengers. Choice din ng wife ko na hindi sana makita sa loob but i wouldnt compromise driving if id get the heavy tint. Primary reason is for security kaya kahit di ko type, okay na. It already grew on me anyway. Hehe.

Welcome sir. Philips Diamond Vision nakalagay sa projector headlights ko. Close to stock hid ang color temp but not close sa light output. Baka mahirapan ka makakuha dito kase wala pa ako nakitang nagbebenta sa local market ng h11 na DV. Pwede ka rin mag Osram NightBreaker Unlimited or Philips Xtreme vision. Laki na rin ng improvement nun from stock bulbs. Makakakuha ka nyan either sa evangelista or banawe.

[testament11]

Oh! Now I'm really happy that I went with 1.5 (not that I have the money to go with 2.0). Dami humps sa neighborhood namin. Ahaha

Actually, most of the time naman eh kaya ng 2.0, even Speed variants ang mga humps. Wag ka lang makakatyempo ng humps na sobrang patulis at mataas, dahil prone to sayad yun cross member nito sa gitna. Isa pang problema dito eh pag 4 na ang sakay mo, prone na rin sa humps na matutulis.

Meron naka 2015 stock Accord sa village namin. Ganda ng output ng headlights, white. I'm sure these bulbs you mentioned are white (newbie sa lights) also? Did you also replace your interior lights (map lights) as well as your trunk lights? Gusto ko gawin yun and I've seen it on Youtube nadidiliman kasi ako sa yellow map lights.

Yes, white siya. 5000k ang color temp. Interior lights di ko na pinalitan. I hardly use them kaya ok lang kahit stock lang pero for sure ok din pag pinalitan ng led lights.

Hi to 1.5HB owners..

meron na ba naka try mag add ng another exhaust tail pipe without changing the whole exhaust system?

I really love the look of dual exhaust tail pipe which the 2.0 has.. but not sure paano magandang gawin for 1.5hb to have that same dual exhaust tail pipe..

[jp923]

2.0 owners, please chime in (calling bro jp23). Hobo 1.5 lang sakin e. Hehe. So far, wala naman ako major issues na narinig or reklamo from fellow M3 owners aside from the "tok" sound sa front left shocks. Majority nakaexperience nito (1.5 and 2.0) but theres already a TSB fix and hindi na rin sya evident sa mga newer releases.

Pareserve ka na!! Di ka magsisisi. [emoji4]

Hehe warning this will sound so biased [emoji57][emoji57] in all my previous cars, I haven't experienced the best balance between performance and fuel economy and that's very hard to find in cars. A single down shift w/o applying more pressure on the accelerator will give you enough power to overtake. I-stop and I-eloop works so well you actually feel them. With 2.0 you get sunroof auto leveling HIDs and simple but impt things like auto dimming rear view. Basta sobrang perfect even the sounds up to par with more expensive cars. Tapos it commands 2nd look talaga haha I can type all day on how it good it is pero nothing compares when you drive it everyday.

Have long thought, prepped....& very recently talked about it w/ Justdiy. The 1.5 exhaust box is the same as the 2.0 except the left hole us plugged, & the mid inlet pipe & flange are slightly smaller.
Your favorite muffler shop can easily do this for you. You'll either have to get an identical tip or 2 new tips for symmetry. Use 304 stainless. 202 will corrode.

Here's the aborted plan pic as an RB axleback was brought over by a very kind, generous brothah....


A Good Halloween Weekend, Mown3rs.
