Plus, if I have my rear slider open, the side that the window section slides over has double the amount of tint since I would be looking thru 2 sections of glass.
Yes, it is SolarGard Brand. The owner was trying to talk me into putting 70% on the winshield, which I still might go back and do.

Zacky, it only took 30 minutes to do my front two windows. I have never heard of them taking the windows out before. Don't want to rub it in but it was only $50 here. Then I noticed a 10% off coupon the next day in one of those coupon books.

Noxious,

I noticed your location is Omaha, NE. That's where I'm From! Where did you get your windows tinted? What dealer did you go thru for your truck? I got mine from Atchley Ford, but my family knows the Atchleys. Maybe I will see your truck around town (the Husker plate should help identify it).

Hey ss perf, try 609-780-TINT, hes in the cape may court house area of south jersey. He did my mustang GT and it came out awesome. I'll be in connecticut next week and If I dont have my friend up there tint mine, I will go back to 780-tint without a question., Let me know how it comes out.

bedcover

Templer,

It's an Access Cover. Had it on my last truck and loved it. Its durable and it doesn't puff up. It rolls up great and it locks on the back. It keeps most of the water out.

pipes

W8n,

Nice Ride. I'm sure you may see me running up I 680 & 80. Who did your exhaust? Is a bolt on, or did they form them? I'm waiting for a set from B&B performance out of Phoenix to make some.

House of Mufflers on 84th & L did the exhaust. I used a Magnaflow single in/dual out stainless muffler and had them custom bend the pipe. I talked to Magnaflow and they thought it would be quite some time before they would make a catback system with duals for the '04 so I went this route. Magnaflow does make a single exhaust catback system for the '04 now though. The muffler shop seemed to do a good job.

I asked before, but who did your tint, it looks good?
