      Tints can make anything look better than it already does.

        One thing about my car I learned today, I took it to the carwash and I always do the drying myself, well, cleaning those wheels are a pain in the ass. Not sure how many spokes there are but there are too damn many thats for sure. I think those wheels are the ones they used to put on the town car but with a different hub logo. Not gonna change em though, they look decent enough and with the blackwalls it has a sorta unmarked car look to it I like.

            turbines and HPP wheels are probably the worst for cleaning. Many small openings. The Towncar waffle grille is also a real bastard.

            Looks good with the tint. Once I get the Towncar done body and paint-wise, I want to tint it. Might do the Mark VII too, probably something fairly light tho.

                Thanks for the compliments guys, I really am enjoying my new car. I used to have an 05 Montego as my daily driver but I really wanted another Panther. My first was a new black 94 P71 I used to have at work in the mid 90's and I loved that car. Later I bought the Marauder in 04 and now this car. I love cruising down the road looking at all the folks crammed into their Priuses or Kias or whatever (that cost more than I paid for my car!)

                    Nice. Tint makes the vehicle look cleaner outside... probably because you can't see through it.

                    I think mine is 30 on the side doors. Going to have the rear window done darker, just because. My 30 looks much darker on the outside than it actually appears from the inside.

                    Looks kind of light in my sig pic though. Guess it just depends how you look at it...

                            Havent had any problems, besides, the law in Texas is 25% on the sides and this is 35% film on the sides, you can use anything on your rear window as long as you have side mirrors.
