Depends on what your lookin for. I went with 30% and I think its perfect. Some people think its too light and some people think its dark. Just get however you want it. Theres more than enough pics on here for you to get an idea of what percentage you want on your car

Where do you live in ATL? Hugh at Acura Carland hooked me up a few months ago. Mine is NBP with ebony interior. Could not tell what you have. Any plans on mods?

sony...i purchased at ac carland as well. hugh's the internet sales manager right?? my dad's a broker with them so i went directly through my dad. mine is nbp w/ ebony and silver as well.

i'd like to do the windows and possibly a slight drop. wheels way later down the road as i kinda like the stock wheels. any suggestions on lowering w/o tampering with warranty violations?? i'd like maybe an inch...

sony, buff,

do you mind if I ask you how much you guys paid for the car? I'm actually somewhat in a market for one and went to Carland also. I got quote from two dealers and so far I'm at 34100 and 34400 for 07 models.

Did you buy 07 or 08?

congrat on a new purchase! these are awesome cars.

i got an 07...i believe the salesman have enough incentive to push the 07's that they'll go way under invoice. my purchase price was 33,683 before t,t,t of course. your quotes sound about right considering the salespeople are gonna make sure they've got their money straight...
