Default Pic Request: Starfire Pearl w/ ceramic tint

Been searching through tint and starfire threads like crazy, but to no avail.

Please post a pic if you have this setup. Thanks!

My car is a Starfire Pearl. But what is Ceramic Tint? Is it a specific color or brand?

I've got that setup, pm me your email because I'm not near a computer. I can snap a picture with my iphone and send it to you. My tint's 35% all around.

I'm still missing the (visual) difference... looked through the tint thread and the people posting with ceramic tint looks no different that the dark tint on my car...?

They look the same. But the film is more durable to scratches from lowering the windows. Probably blocks more UV rays. I've been using ceramic tint for about a year, it still doesn't show any scratch.
