Looks sweet man!! I just got my windows done 20% all the way around also!! But I still can't roll down my windows down yet.... :( and it was even nice here yesterday!! Oh well, I'm going back tomorrow so they can fix the window rubbers. In my opinion, you can't go wrong with tinting. My car has been stock ever since I got it, but the $150 tint job really improved it's look. Anyways, keep that white baby clean, I've always liked the white ones.

What this Pearl white? :D

If you dont know it, its my buds semi-stock GS400, got pics and vids here: www.ri-sho.com/jr

BTW my opinion on tint is that it makes any car look a whole lot better, why do you think its used in about 90% of the car commercials out there :) (just my theory).

And my last $.02 is why spend the same amount of money for very light tint to try to be legal when it cant be done in A/C equipped cars with 35% when you can have a nice dark look for the smae $$, to be legal in most states you would need 45% which is a joke IMHO.

Just curious, but why would you want to paint the window pillars white? If you leave them semi-gloss black, it will make the windows and pillars "flow" together. I can't stand the body color pillars, but that is IMO.

white pillars make it look like a taxicab.
Might need a skin doctor's prescription in some states, like California - that's what I did, cop stopped me, showed him my prescription note, no problems!!

I agree completely. I find it hard to believe people even spend (waste IMO) their money on "legal" tint. It's not even dark enough to prvent any real sunlight from getting in, too. Actually, I think a car looks worse when it is tinted too lightly than when it is not tinted at all. Dark tint really does enhance the appearance of a car.

yeah, bet gee whiz... you get much darker than 35% and it is hard to focus at nightime... especially out the rear window.
