Default Finally it's blacked out!!!

well after owning the car for two years i finally got the first thing on my list marked off, window tint. i've been planning this since day one but i kept stumbling on to other things like wheels, spoiler, ebony interior, springs etc.... then i got it dyno tuned. well on the 19th i got married and spent last week in panama city beach on my honey moon and when i got back my brother had made plans to get the windows tinted for my wedding present, so without further ado i present to you 5%.

also i took these on my iphone, and the cars dirty so pay no mind to the quality of the pics.

no you dont, ive never seen another one this color in person, which is one reason i love it and dont plan on selling, but if a nice hugger orange one came along it would be tempting.

Congrats. I usually hate that color on these cars but for what ever reason, I love what you've done so far. Keep it up!

yeah its illegal here too in NC......i just roll my windows down if i ever come beside a cop but they really dont mess with ya to much. I did get pulled once for my tint but its cause it was early morning and overcast and when its like that you cant see at all in the car....LOL I gave him a hard time and when i went to court I just took them a reciept saying i removed it..but of course i didnt. so it is easy to get by with it. you just gotta always have the windows on your mind when cops are around.
