Finally got the windows tinted today, 20% for $120. Here are some crappy pics in the garage since it was dark before I got home, I'll get better pics tomorrow.Next to my car with 5% tint
Yeah thanks. I got it done at a little shop called California Customs or something like that. Took them about 2 hours. If it stops raining today I'll get some better pics

Several people here have debadged their Vibes and there are a few threads about it, I believe...But you might want to ask your mom before you debadge her car.

I don't really need to see threads about it, I know how to do it. I'm just wondering peoples opinions on it.

I like the CF overlays on Abyss. As soon as I get my digicam back (2 weeks from now) I'll post pics of mine. The CF tones the badges down without removing them.

Went out today and found a place that's going to do it for 160 with lifetime warranty.. I think that's going to be the best price around here for someone that does it for a living. The place is called Jim's Custom Trim.. They also do interiors and tops. I think I'll give em' a try..

Nice. What percent are you going to get?
I took a sample of 35% and 20% home with me to take a look at and ponder over... I decided to go with the 20% and hope I don't get pulled over this summer...lol
The tints look really good on your car! I went with 20% all around except the front windows. I will tint those this year, probably at around 35% or else the Po-po is gonna give me a nice ticket
