I was parked in downtown Sacramento one evening. Came back to my car, got in. Before I even started the car, I had a pig come up to my passenger side and warn me about my tint. He told me to take it off, but didn't write me a ticket. This was in a different car than I have now, and I had 25% in the back, 50% in the front.

That's pretty strict. Here in Florida I see people driving around with Limo tint and some with purple HID's and even blue lights on the exterior of the car, sometimes on the exhaust. I honestly don't know how they get away with it. The tint law is max of 30% up front, 20% rear.

How come you haven't peeled your A-pillars yet?

Here is My Whip with 20% on the Shild....

Have had it on for 2 years and never been bothered. Lived in NY and Just moved to Miami at the start of this year 09 and cops just look at me and say nothing and i have some over the top 30K Deep blue HID's and once again i never get buged. Knock on wood!!

And my mom's explorer is Limo and she has 35% on her shild.

Because I don't like the way the bottom of the A-pillar stops short of the body-work and leaves a big black gap where the cowell is, after the tape is removed. Personally I think its a visual disconnect, and I would only pull the tape on BSP, BCM and NBM (the dark colors) because the black plastic cowell isn't really noticable. Just my opinion.

I'm not even going to risk that because I know for sure I'll get pulled over. I'm definitely going to tint my windshield, but I'm probably going to go with a safer number like 35 or 30. Maybe even 50.

I see what you mean. It's all about perception. The way I am analyzing my box is by focusing on the central color - silver. The connection from the roof to the a-pillar is what I look at. The black cowl is minimal and therefore does not misconstrue the look so much. I think it looks great peeled, but that's definitely my opinion.

I think i've decided to steal your setup idea... what i've come up with is 18x8 45mm up front. and 19x8.5 45mm in the rear. I was thinking of doing something like this, and as soon as i saw this i figured what the heck... These are the rims I'm contemplating.. (As soon as I can sell my TSWs)

Those ought to fit fine. What size tires are you thinking about?
Maybe 235/40-18 front and 245/35/19 rear?

Very nice man.

I didn't notice earlier that you had diameter staggers. You're now raked hahaha!

Don't worry too much about understeer, it makes the car corner more predictably.

I am driving really ghetto right now with DF's in the front and NF's in the back (didn't finish) and it really really oversteers - I feel like I can kick the rear out if I entered a corner fast enough. The rear is much stiffer with the NF's and TRD shocks.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with F/225-40-18 and R/235-35-19. I want a narrower tire up front, I know it's not much, but still want to do it.

Nice meeting you today Ken...

Pleasure to meet you as well. The name that says AVS Seamless Vent Visors by Auto Vent Shade suggests that they are the same ones I have, but the pictures and price are more in line with the Rumion knock-offs that Speed-Element has been selling for quite a while. You need to call them to make sure, but I have never seen anybody selling the seamless ones for that cheap.

I recommend you hit up Rob at DESCENDANT:

I believe they are the exact same ones I have, and at the very best price I've seen.

Thanks guys, no poke and no stretch, but personally I didn't want that look or to worry about curb rash for my 25k a year daily driver. I've added seamless vent visors since the last pics, and also have the Hotchkis sway bars eagerly awaiting their install in my garage.

There's plenty of Bro-mance in SF if that's what you're into Mike...

CIONIDE just stopped by to buy my roof rack... but I might bite off his new slick seamless vent visor thingy he keeps bragging about.

One of the best looking mods you can do for under $100.

HA!

If I was closer, I would've scooped up the roof rack. The seamless vent visors are sick, too. Need to pick some up, too.
