I'm not a huge fan of the strakes either. I wish I could find some sort of real mesh or carbon fiber insert to replace the plastic mesh on the sides.

Cars looking good though. The rx8 is the only car I like white on.

The corners are on their way!! (i hope)... think I read on here, middle of may. And I'm not adding strakes.

After the corners, I want to stealth the amber bulbs..

Be careful rolling your windows down with your newly done tint. It'll scratch and mess up the tint real bad. Wait about 3 or 5 days depending on the temperature outside. Tint looks great though. 15%? 20%?

IMO, clear corners would complete the clean appearance.

It's 5% and 20%.

Funny about not rolling down the windows... the next day I get home and someone is in our parking spot, but they are still in the car... stupid me rolls down the window to tell them to move. Nothing happend though...

So is the front 5% and the rest 20%? Or is the back 20% and the rest 5%? I was just wondering because I put 5% on the front of mine and 15% on all the others because I was worried I wouldn't be able to see to back up at night without putting my windows down. Any problems so far with seeing out?

Oh by the way you're off to a great start........keep the mods coming! (nice color choice as well!)

www.japanparts.com has the side grill inserts but they're pretty pricey. look down the page a bit, they have frp unpainted and carbon fiber as well.

Well.. lower is darker right?

5% on the backs, and 20% on the front two... or whatever the darker % is on the back 3... lighter % on the front two.

I don't have problems backing up at night yet...
