Congrats man awesome X! The V8 with 19's is a good look for sure! Enjoy!

PS - I've had tints on every car for the past 10 years in (north) Jersey and really haven't had any issues. No limo tint on the front but 20% and I've been ok, maybe stopped once or twice in 10 years. They killed us in high-school but now that I'm an old man (32 in April) I've been ok.

Good luck and congrats once again!

Depends on percentage. I have 35% on the front and knock on wood, no stops in Bergen County. My pba card should get me out of any tint tickets anyway.

Congrats on the new truck too. I love the rims.

Holy cow, the cops are strict out there. I don't even get a second look around here. Then again, I know way too many people with 5% on all windows that rarely get pulled over for it, much less get tickets.

Nice Ride!!!! You will love your X and mostly, you will love this site How did you remove the emblems? I really want to remove the dealer's emblem and leave only the factory one.

My wife removes the decals on all of our cars. Its her thing but I love it. Use a plastic card of some sorts and slowly get behind and pull off. U will need some alcohol or mild remover to get the sticky off, then wash imediately. I didnt want denatured alcohol to be on my paint for very long. Enjoy
