Darker Tint
My 35% tint + light interior makes my car look like it's not even tinted. My tinter has a lifetime guarantee and it's being scratched up by the window rubbers, so I'm using this as an excuse to redo the tint, and darker. I'm thinking about 20% but my tinter always tries to scare me saying I'll get pulled over in less than a month GUARANTEED and that he'll just get more business out of me when I have to pay him to take it off. Massachusetts tint law is 35% all around, I want to do 20% all around, but i have light interior.

damn, c230pilot's drop looked lower with his tein springs. but it is MUCH better than your stock setup. hopefully the fronts will settle some more.

but DAMN, how big are the exhaust tips?

I'd take those blue bulbs out of the reverse lights though, the blue doesn't look good shining through... but, looking pretty good!

Maybe this will make the thread hijackers go away:

California Tint Law Enacted: 1999
HOW DARK CAN WINDOW TINT BE IN CALIFORNIA?

Darkness of tint is measured by Visible Light Transmission percentage (VLT%). In California, this percentage refers to percentage of visible light allowed in through the combination of film and the window.

Windshield Non-reflective tint is allowed on the top 4 inches of the windshield.
Front Side Windows Must allow more than 70% of light in.
Back Side Windows Any darkness can be used.
Rear Window Any darkness can be used.

yeah... be careful what tint shops you use. Some do a lousy job at installing the protective moleskin or felt so not to scratch the tint.
