OK lads so I had the tints done by Pentagon during the week and am thrilled with the results.  I went for the smoke tint (35%) in the end.  Was a toss-up between that and midnight (20%) but I didnt want to take any compromises with night time visibility.  Anyway, I think the tint suits the car since its carbon black....its quite subtle, theres some privacy but its not too pimpish/gangsta.

I took some pics today, but found it extremely difficult to capture what it looks like due to the light/reflection.  Perhaps a photographer out there among you will tell me how to do it.  Also, car is filthy atm but its gonna look great when its all waxed up.

AL at AC Car Sales is putting in my Eibach pro-kit springs during the week so once its lowered, I'll have a valet and try to get some better ones.

heres a before pic from a while ago;

And heres a few I took today......

er btw did I mention that I got the angel eyes from Richie??   Or could you all tell from the fact that he tries to hijack my every post with praise for the them

Hehe Richie, they look fab in the flesh, trust me.  Not too dark as you said and in fact a couple of the pics where the flash on the camera was triggered came out where you could see everything in the car. 

As I said will try to get better pics when the springs are on.
