A few GS owners got their tints at The Driving Edge.
138 17th Ave.
San Mateo
650-578-0882

Seems they do a good job at a good price. gsnav was one of the customers.

Kenn, at the shop, can tell you the tint they used on the GS'.

Are you looking for metallic mirror tint or smoked mirror tint? Llumar makes a good cellophane tint sheet.


EDIT: Hey, did you say Bay Area meet??? If it's an open meet, I'll be down for it!

Metallic looks like the RX300s tint, smoked is a reflective black tint.
