tinted corners

hey, does anyone happen to have pics of a dark maxima with lightly tinted clear corners? i was thinking of tinting mine next weekend, but i'm not sure how my DC clear corners would look if they were lightly tinted vs. heavily tinted.

i went to the beach and drifted in the sand. it can be done, but its nowhere near as cool as the RWD guys can do. by the way, ive seen many a video of professional FWD drifters, its not as cool, but if your good enough, you can pull it off pretty well using the e-brake sparingly. now for something actually on topic, i think it would look real nice with a dark tint. thats what i plan on doing to my super black next paycheck.

I was drifting tonight in the half foot of snow we got in the past few hours. I love open parking lots. I'm the e-brake master.

drifting is when your back wheels are slipping, you are sliding, and the BACK wheels are given power to and are spinning because of that power, that is why fwd drifting isnt real drifting, there should be a different name for it

bigtimber, you corners look pretty nice, how many coats of tint did you spray on? i think i'll try that, i'll try to post pics once i finish (i'll probably do it next weekend, since that's when spring break starts). btw i didn't kno my username would spark a discussion. haha, i know you can't TRULY drift with a FWD setup, but you can e-brake and shift the weight to make it slide... but then again, i think max5spddrifter sounds cooler than max5spdassdragger lol. thanks for the pics again.

Thanks. I think it was 2 or 3 coats of VHT Nite Shades. To get it to the darkness you want just go slow, and let it dry completely between coats. It seems to get darker after it dries, so if you don't want it really dark be careful.
