Tim,

Please give benathon some advice about tire selection for Denver. You're the best guy to help him on this one.

when bad things happen to good cars....
It looked so beautiful before, if you are going to do black do something black center qith either a chrome or polished lip. However I dont think the idea of getting black rims on a black car has to be bad, if done right it can look very nice

Looks different, well done. What did you use? Can I ask you to post a pic taken from within the car (while it is parked outside) looking through the windows, I want to tint my windows too (I think you have 5%? all around) but not sure how dark is dark. Do you have trouble seeing objects in the rear view mirrors at night without having the front windows rolled down?

Cheers, M

Nope, not heard of v-kool. I will be using Scotch 3M product for mine, when I finally have the time to go. Saw a 4.8is last week, black exterior with 5% all around and a climate comfort windscreen. Very very sleek. Only problem is in shade or the dark what the hell are you going to see in those rear view mirrors? So any pics? Can you post something?

Cheers, M
