OK I'm sure it was not mirror tint. This is mirror tint:













This is more like what he had. Apparently, it comes in different levels and his looked to be about 30%:

 

honestly i just think it's too much going on at once

 

Can someone shop some light mirror tint on this pic?

 

I think there is a reason I don't see anyone in the scene using it but if you want to try it have someone ps it for you.

 

Nevermind I got it as best I could. I like it and if it looks similar to this, I will be the only Z rocking it. I've never been one to care what people think about my cars in person because I tend to mod tastefully.

 

Id say go for it and be original

 

i know somebody that has that -^^
on their DB z except its like a blue fade into black tint.
not a fan, but it might look better on your car

 

I think the tint you're looking for is called "Silver Tint". It's more silver than anything. I had it on one of my cars before. I don't think it looks "ricey" at all. You could ask the shop if they could put up a pre-cut piece to your window and see how it looks before they actually put it on.

 

yo phreak! I think that you should just do a reg tint bro! u have a SICK custom color and i think they tint would take away from it! Ur car is soo hot I cant wait to see it when it's repainted! are you coming to the OC Carshow this year?

 

I think you should go for it...as far as the taillights, why not go w/ the jdm tails??

This car pulls them off perfectly (i'm normally NOT a fan of them)...but w/ that color + that window/silver tint, it could really tie things together. Just a thought

 

I'll try to make it there tomorrow. I have a lot to do so maybe not til next week.

Thanks goof. If this car turns out the way I want it to, I will be showing it. Gotta get the meat and potatoes out of the way though.


That Z is so raw. I'm just not looking to drop more money into appearance than I have to right now, because boost is my next priority when I get the car back. How much do they go for used?

 

When my Prelude was carbon gray pearl, I had my tint 35% platinum and 20% black behind it. It was pretty damn awesome

 

Thats looks nice, it really goes well with your paint

 

The light silver tint is nice, but mirror is really south of the border.

 

I wouldn't do it, I have never seen it executed well... I think it will detract from the overall look of your car

 

I think it's too bright and throws off the look of a car.

 

I think you could pull it off considering paint and all, it never hurts to be different. If you no likey Peel and go with something different.

 

Think about it...it´s like having chrome windows. You really can´t go wrong with dark tints...It just looks so nice..





and look..we all had dark tint..just looks good in every color..

 

I think that looks pretty good.

+1

 

Damn, I should have put up a poll.... I am actually taking into consideration everything you guys are saying. I really like the photochop I did, but there is not guarantee it will look like that.

I think I need to go to the shop and have them do a 12" x 12" square and see how it looks. This place does mobile work, so maybe they can go to my body shop? I stopped by the body shop after work tonight to have a look and they had not started yet.

I have to make a decision on a hood tomorrow as well. Either I drive to Queens, NY to get a mint OEM for $150, to North Jersey to get a mint OEM for $300, or buy a used a carbon fiber VIS Fusion from a member halfway across the country (which will be painted except for the vents) for $475...

Decisions, decisions...
