    Cost of tint for P5's

    Here is something I used when I was looking: http://www.shadesofgraytint.com/selector.html This is actually the shop I went to. Should give you an idea of what you want. 30% all the way around still looks best to me. Its right on the line of is there tint or not? Which to me means that it...

    Cost of tint for P5's

    I got mine done for $200 all around (minus the windshield) and including the sunroof at 20%. I have 30% all around and that is even dark backing up at night. Going any lower than 20% is going to make it unsafe at night in certain situations so be careful. Make sure the place gives a life-time...

    overlooking the obviously wrong comment about red and black being over played (protest) definitely post pics up once it is all said and done! you will definitely be the only p5 i know if with that color combination which is what modifying is all about.

    Second Annual PA Mountian Cruise/Cookout

    Not sure if I could make this but the later the better. When the leaves start to change it'll be a much better time to cruise.

    Rim paint questions

    Honestly, that would be bad. Yellow + black = batman or bumble bee. But go with what you want, that is just my personal opinion. True and false. I don't want to be copied exactly but I don't think anyone will do that anyways. I am always willing to show people what stuff I have done, where I...

    Rim paint questions

    As cliche as it might seem, red calipers are great if you want them noticed, or black paint if u want to get rid of the rust look but not make them obvious. I went with red to match my wheels and it also looks nice with bronze/gold. Black, gold and red look really really nice together but only...

    Rim paint questions

    I painted my stocks gold to use for my winter setup. I was originally going to go with all black but every time I saw a car in all black it just didn't look good. Even my summer setup at least has the bit of red on the wheels(which kicks ass by the way). And if you ask anyone, gold and bronze go...

    Rim paint questions

    My only piece of advice is to go for a different color. Black on black might seem like a good idea but its overrated. Go with gold or bronze, i promise you will be sooo much happier that way.

    Anyone TINTED their headlights?

    just go with painting the inside, trust me its not as bad as you would think. i did it and i consider myself very unlucky when it comes to modifying my car, and it turned out to be one of the easiest things to do, plus the results were great and i get compliments all the time for them!

    Does MP3 ecu make a difference?

    depends on what you see as worth it. you get a slight bump in power and a much smoother power band but you have to run premium. in my eyes running premium is not worth it but its all in the eye of the person who is doing it

    Yea that movie makes you wonder how far we would be if GM had not been such bastards about the whole project. That movie really opens up your eyes to the automotive world.

    Fog light idea!

    O and too answer the other question, you would just need to get a separate lighting harness and switch, then you can turn them on and off when desired. You cannot drive with them on (technically) when driving on normal roads, pretty certain its illegal. But unless you are pointing them at a cop...
