I'm not sure what the percentage number is on the tint. I just went to the tint shop and told the guys to do "limo" tint. It's only one layer of whatever percentage it is.

I like them too and they hook great but the car ride seems very harsh to daily drive on them. I use them on the weekends when I'm going to do some racing.

I disagree.... while painting the hardtop probably would compliment the CETA, it would be less unique. How many cars have you seen w/ a WS6 hood, Trans Am spoiler, and a hardtop on an ls1? A hardtop is a lot less noticable when it's black. His car is quite unique in itself and while I normally am all for a black hardtop, this is one definite exception.



Very nice pics, very well done.

As usual your car looks amazing, I wish i could have gotten my hands on a Formula bumper when I rear-ended somebody a while back. That look is amazing.
