[Rayen]

You have done it all right

[Jimxd]

WooooOW same stuff as i'm doing to my car. I'm so going for that 40% tint as well, was going for 30 but 40 looks perfect!

That car is just perfect. Love it. Good job!

Thanks for good words guys!

I was also thinking about 30 or 40%, but took 40%. Its very nice from outside, not so dark and not so light, but in the rainy evening or night, without road lights or in dark parking places it makes driving backwards a bit problematic.. but thats not big deal.. if i would do it now, i would choose 30% but anyway i am happy what i have now

[Jimxd]

Hmm ok, well yea i was worried about that as well, the driving at night part with the tint.

Yea you should be! Looks great. Getting shadowline tape + M5 bumper pretty soon so mine will look excactly like yours only with another color and rims

[lydvis]

Have changed stock air filter to K&N. No difference on the road, just a little bit different sound.

And carbon grill, have made it myself from 3M carbon tape. But i don't know how long i will keep it, maybe chrome grill looks almost better, what you guys think?
