Post a pic of your car as it sits currently

Also, my first "real" burnout since I was getting new tires the next day. Not a very good one, but I'll show you guys anyway.

Sleepy, nice green screen work!

Matt, I did not realize that your car was actual, legit Because Racecar!



And now to that mustang...

I actually really do like the clears Shade, those really help that front end look more, uh.... actually looks more modern to me that way.

Correct

if paying to have more tint put on, basic sense and logic says remove the 35% on the doors, then just have 20% put on to match the back....but hey that's just me

I did this on my rear window and paired 5% with 20% to achieve 1%.


0.35 * X = 0.20

X = 0.20/0.35

X = .57143 or roughly 57%

Math.


Realistically it would be easier to just strip off the old and smack on a new one. That way you won't have the existing streaks from your current layer and/or a double thick layer of tint to put more stress on the window regulator(s).

Thanks guys.


Man... Cars cost a lot of money! Maybe I should just stay with light tint? About how much does it cost to have a shop do your tint for you?

Finished these up. Might keep them on for my vacation next week since there will be night driving. But I'm happy. Just need someone to buy them so I can do the next set the way I want!

[sleepyalero]

Damn. Black as sht....

[TruGreenGAGT]

they would look 1,000,000 times better on a black truck...on your white they look aweful.

COMPLETELY agree. That's why I want them sold quickly, they won't be on there long

[sleepyalero]

Why did you go all black anywah? I thought you had better taste

[tipnitty]

For an easy sell. People love the blacked out look and wanted black housings all the time. Figured this would get them out of my hands quickly.

[bricooper78]

Poor Sam, we've lost him.

He went black

[tipnitty]

I was hoping to have the white ones done before vacation, but guess it won't be happening. Too much to do before then. I'm ordering the new projectors tonight and the black ones have already been taken off the truck. So critical y'all are for something I'm not keeping.

Never heard you complain coop

[bricooper78]

Oh you know me, I'm just observing, not so much complaining


Those will look extreme baddasssssss level 40 on a black truck fo' sho!

[TruGreenGAGT]

they too black though, the other bulbs wont work right, trust me my inner turn is painted black and theres no reflection, dame turn signal impossible to see in the day

[tipnitty]

I had planned on LED in there, since taping them off is damn near impossible with my hands. Not worried about output.

Plus, they were already black before I got them. Can't quite paint them chrome again!

[sleepyalero]

Im just giving you a hard time but hurry up and sell em. Lol
