Tint is coming up next weekend. Still debating on what % to do. Thinking 30 all around.

nmjaxx9 · 03-02-2012, 08:30 PM

30% is classy. I have 35% on my sides and my windshield done 30%. It makes the sides look a little bit darker. But it is illegal.

Today I will be getting 20% all around. Stay tuned for pictures.

This is a interesting build you got going. I will be following it . I have to disagree about you not upgrading its stance/performance though. Knowing your taking this car to have it look and feel like a Z,why not eventually consider it after you choose your wheel combo. There is some serious gap to fill and I'm sure that car has understeer when pushed. Ed driving will become practical at the end of the day. Just my

I will keep that in mind antfd3s. There is a first for everything such as this is my first new car and first time every getting tint on that was not already on when I bought the car.

Still debating on those wheels are the are much larger than stock. I bet a eibach suspension would help the oversteer but so would better tires.

I can not say enough about the quality of work Dave does at eliteglasstinting.net

What can I say, Dave did tint on my 2011 Nissan Altima coupe in 20% and it looks great. I watched the overall process and was very impressed with his knowledge and quality of work. Dave has been doing tint for over 15 years. One thing he does that others probably do not is use vinyl around the dot matrix in the rear window. He also does 3M body protection and provides other services. Considering he has been doing this for so long, I guarantee his work has a lifetime guarantee. While I was there my father had tint installed on his ford ranger. I will be referring everyone on my forums about his work.

Highly recommended

Love the car. I have been debating about getting a 3.5. Personally, with the color of the car, I would not go with black rims. It doesn't look as nice to me. Maybe my opinion would be different with matte black though.

Thank you!
Just stay away from the CVT trans if you do, I have been reading they are not that..........strong.

Just ordered my alpine w910 head unit will have pictures tomorrow when I install it.
