some photos of my car
So I've been browsing on acurazine for the past two months, thought it's time for me to share.
Purchased the car on Nov. 26 last year, so far with 1700 miles on it, and still in love with it.
PWP/Ebony Non Navigation AT
35% tint, 20% in the back ($240)
ClearBra has been installed, 1/2 the hood (I think it's about 24 inches), fenders, and mirrors ($300)
Included the prices for those who are looking into these.
Yes the car is stock, and probably will remain stock....I don't have the tools, time, and most importantly the skills to do mods....But if I were to do something different on her, it would probably be the lights above the license plate in the back. Don't really like the yellowish glow.
Oh and for people in the Dallas area, if you do see me driving around like an old person I apologize for that and please be patient with me (or you can just cut me off)...I'm just trying to be extra careful. I've had too many not so great experiences from speeding with the old lexus I had, and I'm too old for that.
Anyways, time to shut up and show you the pictures.
Here they are:
Before tint
And after:
I've adjusted the colors of the pictures a little bit to make them look nicer, but the camera and the lights in the garage made the windshield looked like it's tinted as well. It's not!
One of the things I love the most is the HIDs
I know, it's a long thread. Thanks for reading.

PWP/Ebony...my favorite combo!
I'm not a fan of the mudflaps on PWP as they really stand out...but it's your car and as long as you're happy with it...that's all that matters!
Congrats and welcome!

Congrats on the new car, and welcome!
I agree that taking the mudflaps off would make her look a bit better. You can also get them painted to colormatch the body, but finding a body shop that will paint them can be difficult.
Another simple mode is to replace your fog light bulbs with Hoen Xenonmatch bulbs to better match the color of the HIDs. They're about $40 total and make a world of difference from the stock dull-yellow color bulbs. Do a search and you'll see what I'm talking about.
I replaced my license plate bulbs with WLED-WHP LED Wedge 194/168 Bulbs from superbrigthleds.com:
