Got the windows tinted, finally. Got the darkest by law on the sides and used the limo on the rear. Its great because the wink mirror has no dim adjust for headlights. Also experimented with the windshield banner. Again the wink mirror install required the removal of the visors. Now the am and pm sun dosen't burn out my retinas. I have the M42Club windshield banner and will use it later now that I know how to install them.

Thank you for the compliments. Rims are def on the list. Wanted to get the lip and side skirts first. The total cost for tinting was 125. I am surprised at how the tint really isn't that dark at night, especially the back window.

The M42Cllub stickers can be gotten from:

If you're going to talk about the wink mirror at least post a pic of it. :)

As for the windshield banner, it looks good but I hope you can see stoplights at an intersection without crouching down. I can't afford to have one of these living in downtown Chicago. There are already enough crazy drivers around here where I don't want to blow a late yellow if I can't see it. Limo top strip is good compromise for me.

Here's a pic of the wink mirror after initial install. I will be removing the OE mirror frame but not the arm. On the arm I will attach a piece of surgical tubing and a suction cup. This will help eliminate the last of the mirror vibration. The banner is not a visibility factor.
