    I finally found someone who could tint my 355s windows although it wasn't cheap.
    Cost me $400 + tax. I think it looks great but I understand that's my opinion. The front driver and passenger windows are I believe 35% tint (legal in Utah) and the rears are a couple shades darker.
    Aside from liking the look it keeps the interior so much cooler. I was honestly surprised at how much it cools things down, the a/c works so much better now.

    Just for a memory update I looked at many shops last summer and no would tackle the job, they were all worried they couldn't do the back window.

    Looks like a bumble bee LOL

    Just joking, there is a fine line adding dark color on the yello cars but this does look good as long as the wheels are not black.

    I tried black wheels on my spider and looked liek a corvette, actually a homeless guy said nice corvette to me so I took my gift back from him and kicked him hard LOL

    I installed H&R sport springs I believe they lowered it about 1.5 inches front and 1.0" rear.

    You won't want to see my post next week then.
    Yep wheels are going to be black.

    Looks good Ron.
    I just need be a challenge grill or maybe I'll make a carbon fiber one.
    I'm going to go with mat black wheels for now, just using plati-dip as it's easily removed when I get tired of it.

    Yellow looks great with tinted windows.

    Conversely, tomorrow I'm going to attempt to remove 15 year old tint from my new DeLorean.

    How was he manage to do your back window without having to remove it? I have called several tint shops and they all say we have to take out the rear glass!!

    I had the same issue with shops not able to do it.
    Keep looking for an experienced installer.
    Mine was the owner of the shop and he has been tinting for 30yrs.

    Had mine done last year and they made a template of the rear window to cut the material.
