that is not 20% tint azn, thats like 10 or 5%. You can see silhouettes in the car w/20. i have 20%. Nice CL btw. Can't go wrong w/black. the rear drivers side looks funky tho, like something isnt aligned right. and it needs to be detailed n those white stickers removed. Good buy tho!

-They are 5% rear, and 10% on the driver and passenger. I'm not a fan of the front tint either which is the reason why i'm taking it off TODAY!!!!

-I Live in Miami around kendall drive.

-About the rear driver i need to replace the tailight because someone backed up into me the same day i took the pictures. i already ordered the light on ebay.

-The drop is getting done tomorrow morning cause the guy couldn't do it today so i have to wait. the only other thing is i can't find a camber kit if anyone can direct me in the right direction. Thanks and i will post pics of the car when the drop is done.

Clean ride, dude. I like! Can't wait to see it dropped.

+1 on the 97 grille but not on the 97 wheels. I love the stock wheels on my 98 3.0. I think they're hawt.

I have a '98 and the other wheels are a bit of PITA to clean, although there isn't all the brake dust I used to get with GM's. Also you can shine them with a buffer.

This guy's car, the paint and wheels are both in better shape than mine. We have long winters here though.

actually my paint has alot of dings and dents that you guys can't see in the pictures, and there's cats at night that go on top of my roof and scratch it all over. i'm going to repaint the entire car over, my wheels are in excellent condition though.

well then it LOOKS the same, I guess, its the same dual tipped opening on both models, and yes im sure the 3.0s have a bigger "can" than the 2.xs since they do have a greater exhaust volume

i drove past the CL thats next to my work today, like i do every day and a few times a day.

not only is his whole muffler bigger, the tips are bigger and the chrome tips are larger. its stock. its exactly as pictured. my 2.3 muffler has smaller tips on the can and smaller chrome tips. they are stock also.
