Looks good! I just got an 07 smokey granite GS 350 a couple of weeks ago and am thinking about getting the windows tinted. What type/brand of tint did you get?

Texas, right?
I recently had the ceramic installed to cool down my black interior (can't tell you the %... it's called nano something or other from Park Place Lexus... you can get it elsewhere too). I think the performance is incredible. Before/after difference in heat was HUGE.

yes, I'm in Dallas. I've heard good things about Huper Optik ceramic and Pro Tint in Plano, but I'm not sure I want to spend that much. But I've got Nav and XM so I don't want to impact anything there either.

Do you mind me asking what Park Place charged. Also was this Plano or Grapevine?
