Looks nice.

I wish the sandblaster would hurry up and finish with my wheels. I am ready to get them on the car winter or not (of course I live in the south so winter is not a problem on 17s).

Your car will look sexy if only it were black.

The windows are nice looking, as is the car.

The whole black entity [now heavy] needs some well designed lines to emphasize the structural lines: long sidestripe, window low/rear edge? ...some touch to lighten, but not new colors. 'Silver' already exist in wheels, corner light, test it with PC paint or Adobe.

nice, just hope you don't get pulled over. Now just lower the car, gets some 17" wheels, add on a stillen body kit, and you're good to go

maybe in your opinion. maybe he doesn't want to add the body kit and make it look like he has inferiority complex.

**** body kits.

Stillen Kit... so cliche. Doesn't even look like it adds anything besides side skirts. I'd take the kaminari kit any day over the stillen, and I think the kaminari looks like $hit... MAJORLY.

o brother not this discussion again...

You are entitled to your opinion but here is mine.

you must not look at any stillen kits from your description of them. The stillen extends the rear a good 6 or 7 inches and makes it even with the sides. Also the front piece squares off the nose so that it doesnt look like a giant arrow (for lack of better terms) and also makes it even with the sides.

The Stillen kit is hands down the classiest, best looking kit for the 3rd gen IMHO.

The subtle look of accenting the already great lines of the 3rd gen is the way to go and that is what the Stillen kit does...it may not look like it "adds something" to the car but I like that (looks like it could have actually been factory). I would rather have that than a kit that looks like you obviously have a kit on if you know what I mean (doesnt match the lines of the car and its obvious you just stuck a kit on).


To each his own but I will take a Stillen kit (and I have) over any other period... "cliche" or not.


Now please people lets move on to the actual topic of the thread. Probmx started the thread to show off his windows not his lack of a drop or lack of a kit.

My apologies to you probmx for my going off topic.

I really like 20%. I used to love 5% but as I get older I dont like the really dark stuff and 20% is just about perfect for me.

Most places will charge a lot to take off the old stuff. I got a price one time and it was well worth it for me to take it off myself instead of getting it done.

awsm66: Thanks for the compliment, I also used to have 5% and have grown out of it.

MrGone: It cost 180. Including the tint strip and using a 3M high performance tint.
