How much tint? I went 20% all around on mine, it's the darkest I'll go though, it's hard to make out pedestrians behind me in parking lots at night and any darker would be impossible.

i went 20 on mine as well. Loving it so far. Im very well practiced at not being able to see out my back glass due to driving a walled bass vehicle for a few years so i shouldnt have an issue with that at least.

Thanks Blue!

My neighbor used to work for Lexus and when I got my ISF he gave me that promotional F clock that he had. The hands are a screwdriver and a wrench LOL!

I'm really happy with the way the car is turning out overall. I put a lot of work into it this year to get to this point. Next year I'm going to try to dye the interior carpet black like on the 05+ models and figure something out with the seats--either get the drivers cushion rebuilt or get new seats--the lateral support is just gone from the worn bolsters on the seat cushion--cheap low density foam.

Eventually I'll install the oem double din I have sitting around, but I'm in less of a hurrry to do that vs the cosmetic/performance stuff.

A few post back had me looking into just biting the bullet and getting the JDM DD dash trim piece in which I did.

In the meantime I ordered a JVC receiver, adapters for steering wheel control and the utilization of the stock Bose amp(s) as well as a mono amp for a pair of small hideaway subs.

Figured I might as well do it now while the seats are out. Amp will be mounted under the passenger seat given the Sparco bracket sits pretty high.

Also, I am about to downsize and pull the trigger on a staggered set of 19" Varrstoen ES2's (TE37 rep's) in matte black to stick with the scheme. Waiting to hear back from Mike @ CZP.

Should look somewhat decent I think, at least better than whats on there now...

Just hit an upholstery shop to get my drivers seat bolster redone. 250$. Can't wait to get this done with some nice new high density foam to do a better job during cornering.
