Finally was able to get tint installed. Did Llumar CTX Ceramic tint; 35% front windows (legal limit), 5% for everything behind and the brow. Very happy with the result!

Are the lift pads for your jackstands to sit or for the jack to lift from? Provided you aren't using a lift.

I use them for lifting primarily but I suppose I could use them for both.

Installed my American Authority louvers and some subtle (from a distance) American flag decals from ROE Decals. They seem to disappear after you're about 5 feet away from the car.

If you're referring to the louvers, there are a few small complaints. The pads and adhesive have a very hard time of sticking to the glass, I cleaned the glass off totally but I'm still having difficulties getting them to lay flat. It seems like the middle pads aren't able to stick with the curvature of the window or something. I'm also hearing a small, but noticeable rattle from the bottom center of them but I think a strip of 3M will take care of that.

They look fantastic and they don't sacrifice any rear visibility, however I have not painted mine and the coating from AA tends to hold fingerprints and smudges like it's scared to let go . If you get them, I recommend having them painted.

Took it to the dealer to have both front tires replaced under the Tire & Wheel warranty that I am infinitely glad I purchased. Got a low pressure reading on the right front. Went straight to the dealership and found a sidewalk leak. Then they looked at the front left and saw a big bubble.

Wound up returning them and buying GM sensors from GM Parts Direct. Will not buy aftermarket sensors again.
These program up just fine and they were good for a couple thousand miles. Shit hit the fan maybe a month or so ago when the 2 front ones started dropping off randomly before a marathon drive to Massachusetts. I took the paring tool with me and would re-pair the sensors when I stopped for gas, but I'd get one that would drop off after 10 minutes, then randomly pop back up again. Had a leak in one stem that I had replaced after that as well. I think it's time to just bite the bullet and get it done. My last set of aftermarket wheels on my 2010 with aftermarket sensors never gave me a glitch so I didn't think twice this time around.

Two days ago I found and ordered some window decals from another company. Pretty stoked to see some install pics. Looks good!

Please tell me what you think of these. I have complaints about the ones I got from American Authority. Also, did you have to paint these or did you buy them already painted?

I really like them. No issues whatsoever

They came painted satin black to match the 1LE factory trim pieces
