Sweet another SSM owner! I went with the black trim too since our color was extra to get painted. I like it this way because the gap isn't too visible. Looks like you need to use zip ties to close up the gap on your grille.

heres how mine looks like using zip ties:

run the zip ties through the holes on the bottom of the grill and the holes on the bumper. you have to take off the bumper to do this.

man if i knew how to add clips i would totally put one up. i had the silencers out and it was annoying loud but i pounded them farther in so you really cant see them and it has a nice deep tone to it. i like it

Do any of you feel like the 35% is too dark for the back window at night? I've heard mixed reviews about that.

i have no problems seeing at night, i almost think i should have gone 20% for the rear windows. i live out in the middle of no where and theres barely street lights and my visions good out the back.

Here's my SSM, also with 35% front/back.



No problems seeing out the back and using the auto day/night mirror in auto mode.
