MYSC430NY - I am impressed you are the original owner. Looks new - you've taken great care of it. Only thing I've ever kept that long is my wife.
OrlandoTee - good looking black one. Curious how long you have had it with the window tinted, what brand of film it is, and if you have any peeling. I have a black 2003 and would love to get the window tinted, but have been warned that the moulding is so tight against the glass that it eventually starts to peel at the edges.
I am a huge fan of this thread. So great to see everyone's fabulous 430s. Thank you ALL for posting images. Wish I had more opportunity to check them out and comment throughout the weeks, (and money to mod my own), but for now I will have to do with a quick glance at the thread every once in a while and dream about hot rodding mine.

Re. Tint. The sc has a double seal and it's the lowerr one that can start to peal up the tint. That happened to me. The solution is to remove the door panels and have the tint installed below the 2nd seal, lower on the window. I have had no problems after doing this. There are posts about how to remove the door panels - I learned when I needed the change my door speakers. Once you get the hang of it, it takes about 5 min.
Good luck

Thank you, SlvBullet for taking time to reply and for sharing your experience. I will look for the posts about removing the door panel. Thanks again.
