Wow adding dark tints, with a tucking back and re stickers = your shits gonna get jacked before you know it.
Don't advertise.
Dude go hate some where else. It is his car, let him do as he pleases. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif Like everyone in their mom will know what RE stands for anyway. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Looks good mang! Told you it would look dark enough. Perfect if you ask me and nice car to boot, although not big on your drop. Maybe some different rims would help?

Also does anyone else find adding tint makes the interior hotter than normal? Like trapping the heat in? My car gets hot as fawk, but could be because my car is black? My wifes is black with no tints and leather seats and her car is cooler than mine when getting in it while the sun has been beating on it, besdies the seats that is, lol!

Haha yeah the car came with the drop, and adding the gear in the trunk has just dropped it FAR too low. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif.

I bought it used off a guy that started modding it but couldn't afford to go through with it, so it came dropped to me. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif.

And the 50% on the windshield is fine at night. You can hardly see that it's there at night, but it helps a lot with the glare during the day. I think it was a great idea in my case. And I've found my car stays cooler with the tint on, not the other way around //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

And lol at the guy telling me my shit will get taken //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif. It may eventually, but I really don't think there's anybody but a handful that know what RE is out here.

 
I think the tint job looks good. You realize you are making me want to put a 50% layer on my Mustang's windshield now, don't you?
Oh well, I need to get my doctor's office on the phone next week because I have been waiting since friggin July to get him to fill out my window tint exemption form and one of my cars is due for inspection this month. Grrr...
Haha, I love the 50 on my windshield and it's somewhat hard to notice it's there so I doubt that'll attract too much attention from the laws :p.

I think the drop would look fine with some nice rims on it, but those are $.

Maybe I need to tint my front window as I just have a brow. That is where most the light is getting in. and then maybe gets trapped in there. I don't know, is the first car I have noticed that it gets hotter with the tints. Have had most my cars tinted, so is wierd to me as well, because I never have had the front window tinted. So there went my theory with the light going through the front. Maybe is because I have dark interior. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

I have had my car broken into with out any stickers on it and 2 alarms.....one was a bypass. Probably heard me bumping it one day and was like that is my next victim! Lost over 5500 in audioz in that car. Couldn't tell though unless I was bumping past you..........or you looked in the car, lol!.............................or at the 20's on it, haha! Whatever, you could blast your shit in a Yugo and if someone heard it, all it takes is them scoping it out and bam, your shit is gone. Most people don't know what RE is. Now if you were putting a big *** Alpine sticker on it, then maybe, but whatever.

Car looks leet!

Haha thanks man, my car is ridiculously quiet on the outside though. I don't know why. It's as if it's completely sealed. It's weird. I like it though. Less noise outside means more noise inside //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

Sorry to hear about that loss, haha //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif When they want your shit bad enough no amount of alarms / sirens are going to stop them though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/verymad.gif.3f39c5c2fd57527b671fad3efdfac756.gif**** thieves.

Yep, thieves ****, but they are everywhere! That is why I just drive a normal Focus.........well it is the ST, but don't stand out of the norm at all. Is a sleeper and I love that effect.

Those Mazda 6's are built strong for sure. I wanted one, but couldn't get approved by Mazda credit for a good interest rate, so said fawk it. Buddy has one though and I like them a lot.

Not sure if I am feeling the new ones though.

Yeah man they changed the new ones a LOT. I much prefer the pre-06 styles, the 06-08 ones are still okay, but those new 09 ones look like //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

It doesn't even look like a Mazda 6 anymore //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

I have found tint helps to keep the car cooler. On my silver 2007 Accord with 15% all the way around and 50% on the windshield, that car would cool off faster than any other vehicle that I ever owned.

It also helped with the red 1997 Civic EX, even though it just has a "legal" tint job right now.

It does if you don't tint the windshield because the tint essentially works both ways. It will keep the heat out but at the same time the heat that gets in gets trapped in. At least from my experience.

get 12%
and have the tint color matched, I have my silver legacy with a hint of silver, the blue 2.5 RS has blue tint, and the green linc has green tint

Looks much better, just don't get the walmart green/blue crap. The stuff pro shops carry doesn't look the rice crap.

People say great things about my stuff all teh time
pics?
