    Virginia Beach / Tidewater area

    Virginia Beach here.

    Loving my loaded EX. 4000-ish miles on it since purchasing in early December, I think it's the best value sedan on the market right now.

    I know there are some others around here!

    Also in Virginia beach. I believe I may have seen you on lynnhaven near the mall this past Sunday. I've seen several optimas running around here and I think it would be great if we could get something going.

    Cool! That was probably me. I'd also like to get up with other owners in the area. Anyone else?

    Yeah that was me. Your car looks great man. I thought about the luxury badges but opted for the k 3.0 badges instead. What percent tint is on your windows?

    I was breaking my neck trying to get a glimpse of the HID fog lights, they looked awesome. I had to go with 35%. 30% was like an extra 100 bucks where I was at

    where did you get yours done at? i normally take my vehicles to tnt tinting and its about 180 for 20% all the way round with a banner. Dont get me started on the HID's, they were a pain in the ass lol. Ive got it all figured out now though.

    Weird, I've never had a problem with their tint and I've taken two vehicles there. You didn't use an ammonia based cleaner on it did you? On occasion I will take my vehicles to be detailed and I always ask if their window cleaners are ammonia free. I would have taken it back there and showed them. If they're worth a **** they should have replaced it
