Loving the hod! Not feeling the projectors so much, as I used to have those exact ones. You need to paint your lower valance now to match the truck!

looks good. but i though the lower the number the darker the tint? i thought it meant that 15% of the light hitting the tint is let through? so wouldnt the 20% be lighter than what's on your front windows?

You're right, sorry it seemed kind of rambling there...If i had gone 20% on the front windows it would have let more light in than the 15%, and would have been too light for me. The rears with the factory 17-18% (whatever it is) and the 20% over brings it down to about 12% (so i was told) and the 15 on the front matches it nicely.

hmh, i thought it would be about 4%..? am i doing the math wrong?
u have a tint allowing in 18%..then you put on another laying that allows 20% of that 18%...right?
so is it .2x.18??? way i've always known

^^ I chopped the frames and put 96 model steel bumpers on them. The bed caps are factory. and I still have the lakepipes on the white one.
Thanks for asking, I love these trucks.
The first picture, I was trying to show the pearl paint.

Hey Stoffer Whatsup?
I'm getting this truck back from my son next week, and have a lot of pollishing to do. He just Graduated, and is getting a small car for college. So I get MY truck back. I still can't charge it, but sometime I'll have some money. I just hope it's before he graduates. I may be in Depends, but I'll have the supe charger The Son with the red truck has two more years, so all I can do is survive right now.
