Trust me, once it's tinted (dark in back, med up front most likely...tint has changed so much!), I'll take more pics. I have a vacation place out at the Colorado River so I want to go as dark as possible (it gets 115++ all summer) w/o attracting too much police attention. The dark headliner (which I love!), is making me uncertain about how dark to go.

Don't worry, I'm absolutely tinting this car...most likely early this week...

I would do the same, tinted windows would really make it stand out.

Hello, my first post!

I must say that IS-F /w ultrasonic blue is so good looking... In Finland we can just look at those pictures...(taxes and fuels are so high). More pics from inside?

Just made my appt. Tint guy is coming to tint my ISF at 2pm. I'm going with 20%(dark -- the darkest you can get with ceramic) in the back 3 windows and 30%(med) on the front windows.

I'll post TONS of pics when done...

Was my fav color with my Sti, I would prefer to have that color in the ISF to, great color all around, especially for hiding dirt and such on the car.

What tint is it? Huper Optik? Oh and show pics soon. I am having mine installed on thursday at 11am 3/13/08. Going to install Huper Optik ceramic tint on mine through Song's Tint Masters.

Looks great. That was the original color that I wanted by the dealership didn't have it. Have you broken it in yet? I'm still on mile 56. 944 miles to go.

I'll let you know when the tint guy arrives. I'm not sure, he just mentioned that he had regular and "ceramic" tint and that the ceramic was the better tint. I'll try to find out the brand name of the tint he uses.

I have a photo shoot planned for (hopefully tomorrow) after the car is tinted. I'll take some interior pics and video of the IPod hookup. To be honest, I have been familiarizing myself with all the neat features of this new car over the past few days and have forgotten to take my camera each time. Believe it or not, I don't even have 100 miles on the car yet!
