If not I know a couple other places that will do tint around the area.

Also my garage is heated
sounds like a good group of guys, but when i called into ace they said $180 so i hoped on it and got it done last night. took them 3 hrs and they did a pretty good job.

Mike, i would say go 35%... next time we are out you can look at mine closer under the sun, and from inside the car, it really is not dark at all, night driving is perfect, and i even fooled a state cop once that it was factory.

He also puts black vinyl over the dot matrix. He runs about a month behind so keep that in mind if you schedule with him. Ill definatly get the evo done by him sometime this spring.
I'm going to be looking into tint this spring/summer, this red car is just screaming for it. I saw pics of a red one like mine in Florida and it looks sweet with tint. I can't afford anything outlandish, but I DO want to make sure I get it done 'right'.

Tim, I think I saw you yesterday coming off Greengate Road onto 30 headed back towards Greensburg. Was a silver EVO, and sure as hell looked like you driving! I was wondering if the twerp in the fart-piped Eclipse a few cars back went after you...

No that wasnt me. After i left work yesterday i had to go down to the PennDOT office in Uniontown to file a claim. There is another guy that lives in Greensburg that has a Silver 9 MR - his name is Garcia. He is usually only around on weekends though - he goes to school dantan' at Duquesne.

No way. Crankwalk was way more perdominant in 2G DSM's. 1G 6 and 7 bolt engines were ok. Most 2G owners swap out for 1G engines. Pazz - following in someone's footsteps or is this just a beater?
