Dave your tastes in modifications are just simply one of the best here on CL as far as I am concerned!!!

The car looks amazing from every angle! I can just picture you keeping your car for a very, very long time indeed.

Damn Dave your car is so serious bro. Hey do those slates near the front wheel come with the side skirts or did you have them added? I like them a lot.

The slats are part of the side skirts.

Dave, May I ask why you do not tint your windows? I know people with show cars choose not to tint their windows for show purposes (so people can see clearly into their beautiful interiors) but How can you stand the heat to shine into your "semi-daily driver"? I like the non-tint look but I had to tint to protect my interior and my skin.

They are all tinted except for the windshield, just the angle of the light during the pics I took above. Plus cars with Ivory interior like mine look lighter than those with black interior and same tint. It's not 'limo tint' but it is 35%, the max tint % allowed by law in NC.

wow it's 35% tint already? wow somehow it looks much lighter than my car with 35%. i guess it must be a very sunny day
