    The supercharger still amazes me. So fun to drive on the interstate now. I turned off the stereo and just listened to the hum of the engine and the whine of the 'charger for awhile.

    A few more pics of the tub. I read up on everything I could find to get a better idea of what we were getting into but a special thanks to Chad for his wizard skills and Monte for some good insight....

    I thought the tint percentage indicated how much light it let through? Do I have it backwards? :confused:

    No you're correct. 20% tint blocks 80% of light transmission, 50% blocks 50%, and so on.

    states that do inspection would fail his truck in a second.

    They have headlight output distance requirements.

    And call me crazy but I like having any and all of my lights as bright as possible for safety on my part as well as the people around me.

    Tinted factory lights like head and tail lights is just a DERP move.:eek:

    I didn't say anything negative, I made a sarcastic poke at your "professional" magic tint.

    Enjoy your truck, don't get butthurt when someone points out your shop lied to you or you don't understand how tint film works though. :thumbsup:

    Go nuts.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Jesus Christ...it's the internet get over it. You posted pictures on an open bs forum. So yeah, be prepared for accolades along with criticism. If you don't like what he has to say, put him on your ignore list.

    Calling someone a cocksucker isn't going to get you anything but banned on this forum. Read the CoC...because you clearly haven't.

    And given that you're 19 and think you know it all, you probably won't bother searching for the CoC...so I'll happily paste it below for you to review. Good day....... :luvya:

    I'll cross this thread off my list of places to see. It's like a Teen BS thread in here.

    Once again...it's the internet. I'd be perfectly content never seeing you post again, words or pictures of your pile.
    Regardless...I happily flagged you post it for mods to review...and quoted you for all internet eternity.

    And in case you're missing the point, perhaps a moving picture will be at your level of understanding.

    3rd.

    First gen DCs is what led me to my 3rd gen, so I'm kinda connected.. l. I'd love the luxury of buying one in 4x4 for the ultimate expo/camping rig. If I hit the lottery, first thing I'm buying.
