Not too big on the grilles, but the trim and wheels look good. What amazes me is your tint guy got the quarter window properly (so many don't) but screwed up your rear window.

I had the same idea in mind except for the grill. You should have left the grill alone.
I might paint my rear one day, but first i gotta see how it look when lower w/rims
BTW, is it me cause the trim in front matches pretty well with the front lip, but the rear trim doesn't according to the pics?
Anyway, it looks good.

if you had painted it a little bit darker, like the gunmetal color, then ot would look good. The grills look nice, but the chrome fittings look better in my opinion, just my

Sorry guys, but your buddy Lorenzo did not properly tint the rear window. See that ring around it (pics 3 and 6)? That's where the little dots are...he didn't remove them off before tinting; he just tinted inside of them. See below...no ring.

as far as the painting, the rear looks nice, the front trim and grilles looks kinda tacky.

I am not feeling the painted lower grilles or the monochromatic A-Spec front and rear underbody spoilers. I think the contrast looks better.

No, Lokius is not the only one to have the dots removed (or have the tint applied over the dots). The majority of TL's here with tint have the dots removed or covered...just look at the pics people post...only a handful have the ring. Look in ACCURATEin's thread...his doesn't have the ring (I can't see the pics anymore as they are blocked at work, but I've seen his car in person...his rear window is completely tinted). If you check out tintdude.com (tinters forum), they discuss not only how to do the quarter window, but how to tint windows with the dots because you are not supposed to leave the ring.
