I posted these in the 3IS forums but figured I'd share here as well... Met up with Mr. @DLPTony and some other friends from the area at a little promotional meet put on by Detail Garage. 'twas nice! edit: Wow, Tony totally beat me to it.



Nice! Gonna need details on that r33.

It looks like an R33 Skyline GTS25-T to me from the pictures. It's not a GT-R but it's just a step down that ultimate ladder and RWD. Think the more affordable version as GT-R's go to the moon in pricing. Most "R33/R34 GT-R's" I see are actually GTST models with some GT-R badges and a spoiler. There are a few things that give it away. Still very fun either way you go.

Best of all, this top of the line film rejects 54% of solar energy, which is even more than most darker films.



Thanks for this post. I've been curious about what 50% ceramic tint all over would look like. This is just perfect imo.

Agreed, this is nice. I haven’t gotten mine tinted because I want people to see who is piloting all this amazingness! 😎 Didn’t think about a lighter tint, I’ve only seen the dark and super dark variants.

Yeah it is illegal in Alberta or probably even all of Canada to have any tint on the front windshield (except for the brow) and the front windows afaik. And I'm not a fan of the uneven look of no tint in front and blacked out rears. So I think I lighter tint all over would be good for an even look and yes, having it lighter and showing off the driver and or red seats especially is nice imo.

Illegal in all of Canada, and will get a heavy ticket if (once) caught.

How heavy? Isn't it like ~$100? Or is it $200+? Do you know if it would affect your insurance?

Just got 25% IRX and kind of regret it lol. I should have opted for something lighter. It looks cool, but I don't want extra attention from the cops or highway patrol.

Could be as high as $500 and it will affect your insurance. Wouldn't take any chances with tinting the front windshield.
