I got tired of cooking leather in the full sun. Ever since we moved to a new office location, she has been sitting in the sun all day. I removed the door panels and rear deck, so the tint guy could do a better job. It turned out great. While I had the rear deck out, I re-painted the cloth. It had turned about the color of denim. Now it looks great.

looks great! is your car lowered in these pictures? I often think of replacing my turbines with 18" asa ar1 rims like yours,but refuse to lower the car due to poor quality balt/dc roads,and not wanting to deal with suspension geometry issues.

Actually, I have the rare Rancho 1" lift kit, only sold the Infiniti dealerships in Brazil.

Car is OEM spec on frame height. It looks a little lower in front, because I oversized the tires, but it looks like I have air shocks in the rear, due to the 35 series rear tires.

Thanks for the props! It is real easy to make black look good. 15 hours with a buffer and it almost looks as good as IPQ.

is that after pics on tint?

its not really that dark, but not knowing what legal constraints you have with the darkness of the tint.. That looks like a 35% job all the way around though..

looks clean! but not dark enough!!!!

I like the shade of tint on the car. I'm all about dark tint. I had 2 layers of limo in the back 3 windows of my extended cab Chevy P/U and loved it. However, some cars look much classier with medium tint on them. Depending on other mods on the car, you can really hooptie out a car with too dark of tint. That shade on yours looks great!!

Thanks for the compliments.

Alabama's max legal tint on passenger cars is 35% all the way around.

It lookis much darker in medium sun, and extremely dark in the late afternoons.

I didn't want any trouble with the LEO's.

Jeff - I like the look with the 1" lift kit. I really like the wheels. What type of wheel are you running?

Any tips on how to order a lift kit from Brazil?

Thanks,
Craig
