Lighting was perfect today

rSplines · 04-08-2014, 09:46 AM

Black is definitely a hard color to keep clean, but when it is and the lighting is perfect it looks sooo awesome! I'm happy with my color choice

JustChris · 04-08-2014, 10:14 AM

Saw a black at my local dealers wasn't too impressed. Your pictures are something else, have to pick my colour tomorrow, SB looking great

Looking sharp. What percentage of tint is that?

rSplines · 04-08-2014, 10:41 AM

Thanks, guys! It's an 80% tint, I'm pretty nervous driving around now because its obviously very dark haha. Oh well!

Detlev Bronk · 04-08-2014, 11:15 AM

Looks great. Will you be leaving the license plate advertisement on?

I take it you mean a 20% tint? 80 would be almost nothing.

20% is perfect IMO, that's what I have on my car too. Saves me from burning myself on the leather when it's 100+ degrees outside.

Great looking car!

Gorgeous pics, amazing looking SB... I'm so jealous
