said that the chrome/mirror tint is really cheap and ussually peels off thats why he doesnt carry it anymore. Now he sells a color called "Platinun" kinda gold/silver , like platinum its real nice. GRAFIK DEZINE

Get the black tint. It looks good on my 89GXE. It is 20% all around.
As for the stickers get MAXIMA stickers that are sivler metallic and put them on little back windows they look cool on black tint.

Does the silver sticker look so much better than the white? Will the silver org sticker have a clean look on my 92 White SE? I guess I am only getting one sticker...is the rear driver little window the best place to put one sticker?

I think the silver is the way to go on tint. The white just stands out too much.

You got to go with BLACK!

Go with the black, it looks neat and clean if you go to a good shop. It keeps things cool in the sumer.

AND THE ADDED BONUS--------->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You got some privacy if you need to pick your nose while trying to look cool in your Maxima!!

I'm glad you said that because I just ordered two silver stickers. I don't want it to stand out too much. Thanks.

Actually I think on a white car, the white stickers would look great... but it's all personal preference.. do what you want.

Yeah, black tint would look really nice. If you drive your car during the day be careful of the police. I did a 20% tint on my car and after $200 in fines and another $200 to remove it I am very leary of it.

How is that any better than his stickers? More "appropriate"? Sorry, I just don't like the elitism that comes with customizing cars.. seems like everyone talks **** if it's not their style..

The stickers that I hate are manufacturer logos, go you get money from them? If so then more power to ya, but if not then why give out free advertising?

Well, I wouldn't do it myself, but that's not really the point man, I'm saying, if it's his car, and he's proud that he has some aftermarket parts, more power to him if he puts a sticker on his car. I was considering putting a Warpspeed sticker on my car, just because they're such good guys and I'd be happy to advertise for them.. but I don't like the sticker look myself at all either..

And I'm free to laugh at it, so what's your point?

okay maybe that wasn't the best example. why do you think they include stickers when you buy stuff? so they can get some advertising. too many stickers is bad, but i kinda like them. i've got a Fender sticker on my car. i got it when i bought one of my guitars. i don't get free Fender guitars, but i like "advertising" for them, cuz its my favorite guitar maker, and it shows that i have Fender guitars.
