be careful of how dark you tint your windows... if your in an area with a lot of patrol you may get pulled over..usually what looks elegant on the car is 35% all around.. maybe 20% in back... also depends on your interior color, if you have a black interior your car will appear darker, if its lighter interiour it won't look as dark..it's just illusion it's same darkness. just interior color makes things appear different. Also on wheels I'd suggest like others suggested the gs400 or gs430 wheels..someitmes you can find chrome ones for a nice price, but non chrome would be very cheap if you keep searching the forums. I'm not a big fan of either of the styles you suggested... but as others have suggested keep an eye out on craigslist.. lots of good deals come through there i've picked up black chrome wheels for my rx for a great price..lol drove down half the state to get them but it was worth it.. allofcraigs.com does a search all over so may be worth checking that out also.. good luck with things and welcome to our board!

Sweet pick-up and build thread Seven, IamKhanz: Yea I'm gonna go with 30% all around with like 25-35% in rear window, 80% on front windshield cause it gets that all black look at night time, interior is black so it will look darker than it is! Will check Craigslist periodically.

Thanks for all the help you guys, are awesome!
