but this one is mine. Got a chance to wash/wax today and took a few pics. Currently stock; have the TMW bushings, just haven't installed yet. Ordered AWR rear mount, hasn't arrived. And, if Cobb EVER gets their production issues fixed, I plan to install their SRI. 35% tint all around -- wish I'd gone a little darker in the back but wanted to keep it the same level all around and IL law prohibits ANY tint on driver side window -- I doubt they'll pull me over just for that.

Looks nice, and if IL cops are anything like the cops around here they will pull you over just for tint, with hopes to find more things they can ticket you on. Back when I had my zx3 I got pulled over a total of five times until I got fed up and ripped the tint off of the front windows.
 
just go around with the windows down =)

Looks great, great choice on tint, I'll be getting that same percentage. Dark enough to make a difference but not begging for trouble from cops.
 
I have a metro gray too, but I have 20 on my back windshield and 30 on everything else. It's frustrating cause my front 2 look lighter than the rest a lot of the time, I guess cause most light is coming in through the front windshield. I like yours, not limo dark and they all look EVEN!!! Enjoy the MGM! Let us know what happens to her!
 
Thanks for comments. If/when I do get pulled over, I've definitely considered rolling my fronts down to avoid any additional infractions! However, if it's 20 below outside, they might suspect something.
 
Tint looks perfect. IMO. Can't wait to get some on my ride :)
 
Now rip those door moldings off to finish off the look... Super Clean!

I was thinking about doing mine until I had a car door hit my molding. If I didn't have the molding I would have had a big dent and chipping paint on my door. I hate the look but I am keeping mine. Just a thought

which explains why mine remain.
 
I actually like how the moldings look on the Speed3s. That's why mine have stayed on :)

That may pose a problem when winter arrives....(five-0)
 
Nice car man, like the color with the tints. BTW, did you install your bushings yourself? did they come with instructions.....was it harD? how do you like em?

I haven't put them on yet...it came with instructions which look very detailed. I've heard nothing but good things...it's just trying to find the time to do it...hard with two kids under 5!
