Other way around for me. I love limo tint, not colored. Colored looks ricer to me. Yours looks alright, but still would have gone with black.
Seeing that last post... you can't even tell it's tinted. You can see right in it.

Lookin good. But yeah I agree should've gone darker but hey man it's your car, do what you want. I just think black looks uber sexy with darker tint.

^yep pretty much what zoom said. You get use to it eventually. I've got 15% all around and the only time I wish I didn't have it so dark is when I'm backing out of a tight space at night in a dim lit area, but that's usually rare. So far haven't had any incidents though.

Love the sides! It is a helluva ride. I prefer the dark tint though, IMO, it really evens off the lines. 15% around my BB, and the only difference it makes is eliminating the need to flip the rearview mirror at night to reduce the lights behind me.

i think all cars look better with tint, and the darker is usually better IMO. But you don't want to go too dark and get the attention of the police, nothing like a fix it ticket to ruin your cars looks. I went with 20% on the front windows, and 15% on the rest. It is a little darker at night, but not bad. More importantly, it is not nearly as hot inside the car in the summer, and we just finished up some really warm days here in GA.

that is a dangerous question, both camps will come out of the woodwork on that one, to stagger or not to stagger, that is the question. It is hard to find wheels that look right on this car IMO, the body has so many nice lines, that the wrong wheel choice will throw off the whole look, there are plenty of examples of around here. Choice wisely. And get out the checkbook, the nice ones ain't cheap. That is why I dont have any.
