New tint pics

Just got 18% tint all around. Rears had a factory 35% tint already so the rears look like 5% now and fonts obviously look like 18%. Love it. Couldn't be happier.

Wow nice. Looks decent with the windshield strip. It gets really hot driving without it. I might get one too before summer comes around. Weird how your 18% in the front looks so much darker than my 20%. I'm debating to put another layer of tint because mine isn't dark enough.

It looks a little dark than it is in real life (only the fronts ). The rears are solid black basically now but bc of how big my windshield is it is lighter compared to when I've gotten 18% on my previous cars. But still plenty fine and when it starts to get a little dark they look like normal. I couldn't drive with limo on my fronts. Can't see.

Those plates go perfect with a black car. We have the gold and black plates in NY. They're ok.

We had black and gold centennial plates but these BW plates are porcelain. Love then. Also an invest as they pretty much always appreciate. I think number 6 or 7 sold for $750k a couple years back.

Haha not that mines worth that but it's still worth a few
