    I went 35% on the wrx all around, and wish I had gone a little darker. On the double cabs, the rear privacy tint is 20% I am told. If you did 25 or 30% I think it should look pretty good.

    I was thinking the same thing! I agree on all counts here. ps. Saw a new 4runner this weekend. Actually wife called it out and I really like the color (she called it blueberry). Don't know but it looked damn nice.

    Dont know if I could do that man. Props to you. Seeing those fragile little babies struggling is tough. Like hearing those telethons for St Jude. Puts a tear in my eye every time.

    Aint gonna happen. Patriots have already proven they can cheat however they like, and if caught all they'll get is a slap on the wrist. Call brady the GOAT all day long, but he should have an asterisk next to his name. He and Belicheat both. It's like they have NFL staff on their roster too.

    I just don't want to give the law any reason to pull me over. I really don't have a need for super dark tints either. As long as it isn't a glaring difference from the rear I won't mind.

    When I got mine done I think they said 50% is legal in VA for fronts. They give you a +-7% to that, so you could safely do 40% and stay in the "legal" range. I opted for 35%, and it is still pretty easy to see into. Now granted all of my windows are 35, so if your rears are at 20%, the fronts may look a little darker since there wont be as much light coming through the back.

    @Cody23 question for you.... in the ARB bumper.... how do you access the winch clutch handle to change to free spool / engaged???

    are there holes? it doesnt look like it from most pics I've seen...

    (asking for a buddy of mine who reached out to me w/ the same question)

    Mine is dark as crap (like 5% front limo rear) on my black truck and it sucks to see reverse at night and sometimes turning left or right thinking of going back to 20-25% for safety lol.

    lmao that comment was so dumb hahaha. Glad the refs called a fair game and the eagles got the victory they deserved. Although the tackling was horrible by both teams and kevin harts drunk ass after game was hilarious.

    while I cant talk to that particular light bar, I can speak to that company.

    My Xterra buddy and his brother founded / run it (they are in Denver).... so naturally, I used them when I built mine (they were local and have a great reputation)... I had a 42" curved on the roof, 22" straight in the bumper, and 4 cubes as aux / fog lights (2 spot and 2 flood)

    the owner and his brother actually helped me install all the lights on my X

    never let me down in the Colorado harsh weather... were always really bright, no water condensation or anything at all.... so I know they offer quality stuff

    What an amazing concept for lights. I wish more people adhered to that. :D

    I mean but water keeps thing clean on the inside right?


    You ordered the wrong lights though.....what you ordered were the Sahara Desert model and what you should have gotten were the Monsoon lights that are specifically designed for wet weather. This is your fault. Never mind that the vendor never mentioned this specifically in a write-up anywhere.

    Depends on air temp and other things. Pure CO2 will do more tires than the mix I use, but the mix does better beer....

    You can periodically get a good sale on the ARB compressors, and if you're just doing tires the single is good. i want air tools too...
