I'd do the same once the car comes off the delivery truck. Our roads are notorious for loose rocks and debris.

45% + factory tint. Ended up right around 37-38%. Decided this time around to keep it NC legal.
Glad Texas's legal limit is 25%

Ours is 35% here. Which is ridiculous considering how hot it gets in the summer.

Can you post a pic of the black chrome, I'm curious to know what the difference is between that and gloss black besides the gloss part.

Found this post while searching for the best window tint to put on my baby (I've learned that Pinnacle is one of the best). What percentage tints do you have on? Those look like 40%?

New IC! Logs to come!

****Update with IAT log 3rd to 4th pull. Not bad.. I don't have a tune to log power gains but I assume with cooler air comes more HP gains?

Interesting. ET values ? No spacers required, I guess ?

No Spacers as this is an aggressive, but BBS recommended, fitment for the car. I will eventually go to a 285/30 rear and 265/30 front now that see it will have no problem with fitting a slightly wider tire with these offsets.

The second thing I did today will be less popular. I put the leather shift boot and ebrake boot on the car. I like alcantara but not in places where it creases and collects lint.
