What - no Slipstream Blue thread?! I went to the dealer and wrote the deal for mine today (so I could get February incentives). I am at 4800, so it's off the train and should be here soon! Pics to be posted here as soon as I get it :cool:

All my prior tints were LLumar 35%. My new installer had choices in the Suntek ceramic of 50, 30, 20, and 10. Since the car is headed to Arizona figured 30% would be just about right.

I got my windows tinted last week and the black bumper trim on the other day. My windows are 3M FX Premium 15% on the sides and back and 3M Crystalline 50% on the whole windshield.

What are the percentages, Chris?


Sorry for the slow reply. The back window and rear doors are 30% and the front doors are 40%. I have problems with night blindness so I went a little lighter on the fronts. So far it seems perfect.

Looking good I also have 3M crystalline on the windshield. Do you notice the crystalline appears to be grainy in certain light conditions. I just had my tinter redo the windshield.
Not really but I did have that issue with oncoming headlights or bright taillights with my STS-V but I used a different tint installer who used a different brand (can't remember what it is).
Ready for my first trip in potential snow/freezing rain/rain for the Thanksgiving holiday with relatives in Maryland. Here's a shot of my winter setup.

Those wheels look great! What are they and what are their specs?

Edit - came across your post on the "new purchases" thread, so I saw that they are BBS SR.

Thanks. Here's a couple more. I dusted off an old Canon film lens for these, so that was fun. FL mount 135/2.5. The car was clean a couple of days ago, but of course it rained the entire day after I washed it.

Looks like you put the same wheels on. Are those BBS?
Long haul on a trailer from Michigan to Arizona... that said it got a quick bath to rid the salt brine picked up in northern Texas... I mean really? Salt brine on a sunny picture perfect northern Texas kind of day? Needless to say I was a tad chapped... but clean now and hopefully stays that way in the valley of the sun.

Not yet but that is the sort of silliness I'm seemingly prone to! Need to get a better pair of all terrain shoes then I'm headed up the trail.:eek
