While some may see that as true, depending on the town you live in you may get harrassed by officers more often than not about have illegally tinted windows. And some people would rather just avoid it all, but then some of us like to live on the more adventurous side :lol:

Daytime isn't the issue with the dark tint, it's nighttime that fucks with you...when your windows are limo tinted and you look in your rear view mirror and see a black abyss :shock:

Yess the solid mounts I gotta get in most likely. Then again I don't have much hop/spin. But would still look better than the OEM ones.

LSD is expensive and an annoying install, and so far I haven't had a situation where I /really/ needed it.
