I would recomend the s2000 antenna. That would ice the cake

Did they tint the rear window?

The Rear Window was tinted the same shade as the side windows.

Does the s2000 antenna screw right on?

I can't roll the windows down for atleast 4 days because of the tint.... And since you can't put the top down without the windows going down, those shots will have to wait untill then....

What percentage tint is that?

I assume you know the tint is illegal. I'm in California as well and have been trying to decide how much tint I'm willing to risk. I'm leaning towards a conservative 35% right now.

The shop that tinted it had 4 types of shades..

light
medium
dark
limo

This is dark tint... The reason I went dark tint was that I never drive with the top up or the windows up, I wanted the car to look nice when it was parked with the top up, so Im not to worried about getting busted.... I have a G35 sedan I drive when the weather is bad...

I think 35% is medium, so I would guess mine is like 15-20%, although if I had to do it again I probably would of went with the medium tint... There's a pretty big contrast between the windshield (no tint) to the side windows

Looks great. You're tougher than I am if you can live with a black car in Palm Springs. Don't you get cooked in the summer?

Those are 19" rims on there now.... If I go 20's were talkin like 30 series tires... no thanks ride is stiff enough as it is... The Suspension I went with is the Nismo Type S, it only lowered 0.8"... i prefer this look... it's similar to ferreri's and porsches

I don't like my cars looking like King Kong sat on them with the wheels tucked into the fender wells... Not to mention the headaches you have from going up steep driveways...

For me, this is the perfect setup... i'm real happy with it..

I know a lot of others like the slammed look, but its just not for me...
