ya that looks pretty good. Did you cut them or did you have someone do it for you? If you did what did you use to cut it out? Loving the tint.
 
nice

Damn that's dark... Hope ya dont run into any problems with the law and have to get it removed.. that is if your state has laws pertaining to it. Oh and the tips.. Looking sweet!!! I'll pry pull something like that off... just let us know your technique....
 
you tint the windshield? how dark you go? im bringin mine in Thursday to get 0 all around, not on the windshield tho..
 
Thank you...thank you....for the tips I just used a hole saw a little bit bigger than my tips and I just made sure the speed was up so it didnt make the plastic all jagged. And for the tint, it is limo on the front two roll down windows, double layer of limo on the rest except for the windshield, there is no tint on the winshield. I was going to tint it, but it was sooo dark with what it has now, I thought it would be overkill! Keep the comments coming guys!:)
 
How's reversing at night.. can you see enough?.. did you get brighter reverse lights? also w/ that double layer, do you have any problems putting down the rear windows, do you get hesitation or is it just a lot slower than before?

are you going to tint your tails too
 
Looks nice, but expect to get hassled about the tint.

I put new exhaust tips on my car this weekend too.

Those look real nice Todd. Did you paint that rear surround?

No, the 2006 models come stock with the surround (and front grille) painted body color.

They also come stock with the rear fanny skirt, which effectively makes the exhaust pipe cutout a bit bigger than previous (non-LSE) years. The bigger cutout made the exhaust tip look too small -- a bit comical actually. These larger (4-inch) tips fill the cutout much better.
 
WOW thats some serious tint, in Ohio u would be toast in 30 sec.s on the highway. State Highway dont take kindly to that dark of tint. Looks really sharp though dont get me wrong, wish I could pull that tint off in Ohio.

Good luck with the rest of the car.

Actually, here in Michigan they are pretty tough on it too, but they changed the law on it. It used to be if your windows were tinted they would give you an "obstruction of vision" ticket and you could take it off and the ticket would be dropped. Well, now it is a window tint ticket, $55 wether you take the tint off or not. So I figure if I am paying it anyways, I may as well have the tint how I want it. Thanks for the compliments guys!:cool:
 
C-Snizzle I think me and you have the exact same color...dark green? I'm a little color blind and that camera is kinda foggy but it looks like it to me. lol! Looks very nice! That sucks you guys have so many problems with tint. I live in Minnesota and I have 15% tint. I've been pulled over 3 times and only once been hasseled for the tint. Even when I did get hasseled they ticketed me as a black continental so nothin ever became of it.

I got my new custom cat-back exhaust this weekend but I don't like the way the tips are set. I wasn't around at the shop for the install so I'm bringing the car back to have them adjusted. As far as I know I've almost got the exact same setup as Quik. Here are the tips:

I love the sound of the 40 series flowmasters and the nice performance gain helped me walk a stock 95-97 mustang GT in a full 1/4 mile! Here are a couple pics...not very good but you can kind of get the idea.

I think they stick out and hang down too much, I'm having them adjusted this week. I'm going to have to do some bumper cutting or at least the entire rear valiance (i think thats how its spelled) in order to make them fit right...
