    What do have against kangaroos. lol
    I think they might look good. Best bet is to try it both ways and find what you like.

    5% All round? How deep is that tint? It looks awesome. I wish my state would allow < 27% on the front doors

    Yeah, I plan to play around with the center caps. Keep them on, take them off, or go with black caps. We'll see.

    My state doesn't allow that dark of a tint either, but both of my previous cars were tinted that dark as well and I've been driving around for 6+ years like that and the police never hassled me.

    Lucky bastard :) I have a buddy of mine who is a county deputy. He warned me and told me that he would write me up every time we bump into each other at the fire station lol

    On a more serious note, he told me Highway Patrol is currently cracking down on it, so I didn't go lower.

    OK, finally got the wheels on! I'm leaning towards keeping the center caps on. What do you guys think?
