Okay, here's 1 more. This is under artificial lighting, and looks much as the car appears under street lights, etc.

Nice, bnez. Are your front side windows tinted at all? I don't think any tint on those windows is legal in california though a lot of people do it.

I should have my rx-8 (Silver) on the 14th. (jan) I plan on doing mirror tints on BACK 3 wins. and 35% on fronts..too keep it legal. The back three are basically going to look like mirrors..cant SEE in at all.but can see out.


Silver fade basically..black to silver. the front win is getting 8 " down I think..I still have to check that out. But thats going limo tint. Thats the look...it will look smooth, yet classy when finished.. I need to work on the brake calipers next....black with Silver RX-8 logo.

38% stealth tint all around - Got pulled over the other day for window tint violation - copper said that they were 28% - according to his window tint checker gizmo thingy - $89 ticket for minding my own business and doing 42mph in a 50mph! Unbelievable!

According to FedEx tracking, my pillar accents should be arriving from Canzoomer on Wednesday. Once I get them installed, I'll post pix. I'm also supposed to get the rear fog light at the same time, so I may just wait until I have that installed. I'm not doing the light install alone, I am getting help. But - I'll take pix of that and post a DIY s-b-s on it. :D

7%

Long story short, my car was SUPPOSED to make it to me in Germany by the 5th so I hoped to have a new pic of the tint (7% done in Florida). Here's one I took (with my phone so it sucks) when it was at the port in Florida. Obviously no Volks yet (they were still on the way from Japan) but I'll post pics as soon the wing and wheels are on!
