That's kinda harsh... -_-

But personally, I'm more for the "euro-style" red/white color layout. That being said, I must say your tint came out great. Very professional-looking. How's the visibility-factor with the tint applied? Turn signals still coming through ok?

Best Regards.

not really feelin it either but looks like a quality job

i personally might go for less of a smoked look, those look more just blacked out. I might try it with just 1 light coat

i happen to like the star in the front because it balances out the star in the back. but that's just me. i am sure you like no star in the front better because you paid more to remove it.

nice looking car.

i like the star, but just want to have a different look now. I'll probably get the AMG flat badge later on, but the tree on the badge is ugly tho. hah

Noble, SHUT UP!! why do you have to remind me I still need those two things... I'm saving up now...will get those thing done eventually...haha They are on my mod list along w/ the the powerchip. I now have to decide which two to get done (all about the same price range) because I don't really want to spent all that much money or nor I can afford to.
