Got my car tinted! Trying out the new Crystalline tint, anyone else have it?

AHHHHH! A chick driving a stick shift! This makes me happy.

I have owned one automatic in my life and I sold it 8 months after I got it. I bought this one specifically for the stick and the heated seats.

Yep! Stick shifts FTW!!!! To be honest the rules we have are pretty much international standards, it just depends how the traffic cop decides to apply it on the day!

Definitely! Those standards seem pretty harsh!

70% ???????? OMG??? In missouri, it was 35%, and I got 30 all around minus windshield... LOL. Never got pulled over.

Too bad you aren't in SW Iowa, as I'm in Nebraska only a hip skip jump and a hop away.

Yeah isn't that insane! I think it's the highest % in the states. I went for 5 years with my tint at 35% in the front, but it seems like they are cracking down because there are a lot of cars in the area with limo tint in back and nothing in front.

No kidding! It's only a 4 hour drive from here You have to go to the Des Monies show and meet up with me!!!

The problem we have is that there have been quite a few accidents when the guys do the illegal street racing. Then the cops started Operation 1/4 Mile in Durban, to stop it. They came down hard on modded cars, but after a few embarrassing incidents they've calmed down quite a bit.

The only downside to the car scene here is that a lot of sought after tuning cars like Supra's, Skylines, RX - 7's, and the big American muscle cars didn't come here, so we mod what we can, lol!

Lol. Im not moving where you live that's for sure. I have a cf ti tip hks exhaust that is huge and a nice big wing that varies slightly from sti look. And after market wheels. Etc. Nothing extreme and almost looks just like an sti till you see the cf trunk and cf insert on the wing. I never get pulled over in ne

I hope you can! The Des Moines show isn't too shabby! The Chicago show is amazing! That would be an 8 hour trip for you, yikes!

I suppose I could understand the laws if there is a big problem with street racing. Too bad about the muscle cars not making it out your way!

The only one we get is the Chevrolet Lumina SS, which is actually a re-branded Holden Monaro. The first models came with the usual 5.7 V8, but the new models come with the 6.0L motor from the new ,Vettes!

You can get a good 2nd hand one at a good price, which I plan on doing once I'm done studying. There's a few guys here that specialise in supercharging them, they turn into firebreathers! They also turbo or super charge the 350Z. The STI Impreza is very popular here, so is the EVO, lots of people are happy to see hatch back Subaru go. Of course, since the Rand trades at around 7 to 1 with the dollar, in the dollars favour, tuning parts are definitely not cheap!

Haha. I drive a heavily modded wrx, next car will be an sti. Stick in my future.
