m4a1mustang's 5.0, S2000, and other cars thread

50% sides and 30% rear. 50% is the legal limit in VA for the side windows and I've been pulled over before for 35% so I decided to keep it

Kind of a wacky day. Tint shop was way behind and they took FOREVER on GM_Traitor3.5's Maxima. So we did what any responsible adults would do to pass the time and played on the rail road tracks.





Back to tint news, the state House passed a bill to change the legal tint limit to 35% this month. It needs to pass the Senate yet. If it does, the 5.0 is going in to get 35% on the side windows again and I'll probably have the S redone. Will do the Benz while I'm at it. Fingers crossed.

Looks good

I have mine at 35% for the Z (legal limit) and now I kinda wish I had gotten it darker, maybe like 20-25%.

We really like them and might have them powdercoated. I've seen them done in a light gold or darker bronze and they look really good.

For now, though, the car is just going to get some Star Specs and we'll figure everything else out later.

Back on topic: Steve, post pics when you get it done I would like to see this!
No my phone auto wronged the word "funnest" which IS a word to "funniest" which is also a word but was used in the wrong context.

Meaning the S2K is one of the "funnest" cars to drive. You can also say "most fun", "most enjoyable" , "entertaining", etc. The point is all the same.

I guess if you mean the S2K is "serious" as in that it's a "serious" machine sure but that's not at all what I was talking about. I obviously stated the S2K is amongst the most fun cars to DRIVE not that the car it self is somehow "fun".
