Looks good. The only thing I would suggest is to do something with the tips and also paint your calipers and caps of the rotors.

Let me get through the next couple weeks of work with my new job and I'll do it. What level tint do you have? I'll do the rest of my windows to match, but my tint may be lighter than your's.

Do you still have my number?
