Use photo bucket to post pics. Interested on tinting my headlights using tint, decals to cover scratches and fogging.

I got my side windows tinted (80%) this morning. I didn't want them messing around with back window because I have a tinted windscreen and I was afraid it would be to dark at night. Next up I need to get the pop-a-dent guy out here to fix a few dings.

Unplugged a G-force module I didn't know I had. When I saw it and found the bad reviews here on the forum it sort of felt like I had found a tick or some other parasite on the car.

Received a package from Squirrel Crusher today, containing something epic for the car. Can't say what it is, but those of you who will be at the chicago meet this month will see in person

Took it to them for the painting part because they were recommended by a few guys here who have had theirs done there too. They should come out looking great, because the guy will be using the 3 part paint the crossfire uses itself plus a clearcoat. I should know by monday how well they came out

What did they charge you? I have some areas on my car that could stand a re-paint...

With about 66% thread remaining, I had the front wheels balanced yesterday. A slight high speed wheel shimmy had developed but all is good now

I'm sure that a tint would look good, but won't the fogging buff out? I'll be doing ours shortly, and I've seen great results from having this done.
