Vred, I got a great hook up for tints in the Seattle area. I used to work for the guy and he's been tinting for 21 years. If you don't know what you're doing already for tints, PM me, I'll give you his number.

I think his prices are about the same as what you got quoted. I hear ya about the drive though, it's tough with only the windows up...and I got mine done in July! I like clear bras and haven't seen any serious problems with some that were up to 3 years old. Plus, they get better quite frequently.

who is gonna see it under the car anyways?


it sounds very quiet, same as stock ones did, they told me they will get a little louder, maybe 4-5db
They'll get louder after a few thousand miles Eugene....I have Mag mufflers and they were quiet at first...but they got louder and I think it's gonna get a lot deeper (Of course louder in a good way )

That stereo that you got for $200 looks / sounds really nice...what brand is it? Is it possible to install that headunit and have it work with the OEM 12-CD changer in the trunk? Just curious....

BTW...I'm really impressed with the transformation of your car...I really like the exhaust

Tire size you decide to go with dpends on how strong your rims are

But yeah, the construction is really bad in Central Florida, and down in the Palm Beach area. When I had my other car with 40 tires on the rims, I bent 3 within a month. Granted they were cheap wheels, but they still shouldnt have bent that quickly. I'd personally play it safe if you can do so without rubbing issues.
