The dark tint is what makes it match especially well.

u should take some close up shots of that seam your talking about. I'm also wondering how it looks around the moonroof.

My roof has tons of bird etchings, this would be a quick fix on a black GS!

looks nice esp considering the cost and simplicity. I bet it would look sharp on my silver 2GS. I dont think my 35% tint would match tho, Id have to get it redone 15% most likely. I guess when it gets beat up you just peel it off and get a new one. How long will it last tho?

Minumum 5 years from fading and peeling. Its on there pretty strong. Its carwash and wax safe.

As far as dropping it, im on Tein STECH SPRINGS/lTUNED shocked. It might be the pics cause the car sits pretty flush. If its lower itd be a drag.

also, any plans to drop it a tad lower? how wide are your rears?

My foglights have Overlays. I wanted to add some contrast. It looks really good in person. The picture makes it seem a bit different. Its like a crisp yellow
