Also got a 5% tint on the windows! Before and after shots are posted

Looks great! I love the orange hot wheels better than the blue... I think the orange is rarer?

1. Oil Change (Mobil 1 15W-50)
2. M6 Trans Fluid Change (Amsoil Torque-Drive ATF)
3. Diff Fluid Change (ACDelco 10-4034 75W-90)\
4. Brake Fluid Flush (Castrol SRF)

Took me a good portion of the day, but she's ready now for the next track event.

Dismounted wheels for new tires install tomorrow, in prep for trip to the great smoky mountains and tail of the dragon runs next week.

Not in a day, but got some cosmetics done in the 3 short months of ownership thus far.

Rokblokz rock guards
c7carbon side skirts
5% tint all around, less windshield due to PDR

Picture also to reference the tapper screws that came w/ the skirts vs. the license plate style screws we actually used. Husband used the tappers to get the holes done, but then used the larger screws to install. There was just no trust in those tiny tappers

Scheduled an appointment to get the windows tinted.

Looks very purdy

I may be a little OCD, but I painted the rock guard screw heads black with touch-up paint

Great idea and execution with the screws, the self-tappers look small indeed.

On a related note, isn't that 5% tint illegal in NJ? Don't you guys get pulled over for tint? Oh, and I don't see a front plate either, those two together feel a bit riskier...

I believe it's illegal to tint front windows at all in NJ. They are supposed to be how they came from the factory, so no 35%, no 20% and certainly no limo tint to be compliant with the laws. Front plates are also required in NJ, but I haven't had one since 2009 and I've never been pulled over for it. My ZLE windows aren't tinted, but my previous cars were all tinted. I think I've been pulled over once, maybe twice, for that reason ever.

I just called about this today, but the shop didn't call me back. I'll have to reach back out tomorrow. What level tint you going to go with? I was thinking 20

Anjilslaire · 07-18-2022, 09:15 PM

They have a few options for tinting products, all 3M. Haven't decided on the level, to but want it super dark to match the all black car itself.

Typically 35% won't get you much attention from law enforcement even in states with "no tint" laws, you go down to 20% and you'll likely garner some attention you don't want, 5% "limo tint" you can pretty much guarantee a stop if they feel like dealing with the hassle...
