I would love a tint on my front windows but it is illegal...Crewzin once had a immitation ticket for Rice cars.....it was quite funny....In Edmonton AB ...there has been alot of importing from Japan right hand drive cars...300ZX, Skylines, Toyota Vans, MR2s Rx7s....etc.....Must be hard driving on the right hand side especially using the left hand to manual shift. Must be hard making left turns and passing on undivided highways....lots of accidents with these rt hand cars. A girl told me she was following a car and all she could see was a large dog in the drivers seat....when she passed it she realized the driver was a short Ricer in the passenger seat driving

Yeah front window tinting here is Illegal but sadly I still do it anyhow. I did it on one of my cars long ago, got pulled over but never any tickets...and it was always the same cop too lol. I'm not stressin' it so much, I like how full tint looks, I just won't get it Limo tint Dark, thats too dark for me.

Hi Cathy, love the Blue/Silver looks really slick. I think the blue is to light for the stark black contrast. If you dont want silver do a charcoal color that may look really swee also. Happy Cruising! Chris

Bob and Teekypt, thanks for the comments, but I can't take credit for the two-tone ragtop. That was a concept a the 2004 SEMA show. PTSpeedster

This is my two-tone, at least I'm consistent in what I like!
