The 5% isn't bad, but I've been running limo on all my cars for the last 7+ years, so I don't even notice anymore. Cuts down on glare to be sure. I have sensitive eyes and always wear sunglasses, and I can still see through from the inside with no problem; backup lights are not as effective, though

Car is now wingless and the sideskirts should be ordered this week, which should pretty much finish the outside; I wanted a little white sedan that doesn't jump out at you (or LEO's, heh), and I'm pretty happy.

Thaks for the comments, guys. Pictures of the wingless setup will come when I get my XTi back this week.

Yeah, I'm really happy with how the wheels turned out on his car. I think I could have pulled them off, but they look perfect on the big sedan.

WRX skirts on, plate relocated because the stock bumper holes are stripped and my new plates almost ripped off on the freeway.....not gonna happen. Ricey, but it works.

Need to install amber sidemarkers this weekend, do some work on the Mine's lip, and have some other parts on order...

Took some pics by the house this morning, nothing fancy, but I still hadn't done nice picures of this car, and was up early when the light was nice.

Couple pics I snapped tonight: new stuff (visible stuff, at least): sidemarkers, mudflaps, pink stars badge, license plate trim, dirt.
