I want to but my girl is riding my ass about more down time on the car. She wants me to wait til I buy another car and either mod it or mod the Balt. Besides, I need to get some other performance parts before I worry more about aesthetics.

28% all around, with a 5% strip in windshield.

Also how did you guys get the tint over the little black dots on the top of the rear windshield? The guy is making me go back after a few days and he's going to just put a small strip of black vinyl over them. He said the tint wouldn't stick over them and that it would cause bubbles and look bad.

toby the only way to get the tint over the Dot matrix on the back window is to take a lot of time and a lot of heat to stretch the tint and get it perfect. about 95% of tint shops don't take the time to do that since they'd need to charge more labor. like the guy said just have him cover it up with some vinyl, mines been like this for years and i keep forgetting to have someone vinyl it althou it doesn't bother me much anymore

or just cover that area up with moar stickerz haha

It took me about 6 hours to even figure out how to do it and how high it needed to be mounted. I'm not gonna lie, it's zip tied on there but at first glance most people don't even notice. But thanks. I had to do something to hide the bottom of my heat exchanger.

These will have to do for tonight. I've got some paint and body work to do on the hood vents and after that I'll get my girlfriend to bring over her camera and do some good shots of it. These are just off my phone.

It's the jdm hood prop yeah I did it to see if it would vent heat better. There just longer bolts and have a nut between them.

There Axis rims they were black with chrome lip. I.wanted some funk so I painted them lol.
