Kirk, I took a look at that photo and the first thing that came to my mind was: "Nice 'S' "

(Sorry...I really have no control over what pops into my brain sometimes.)

Hey Kirk, I got to lookin' at that thing and it got me to wondering. It's pretty dark, tint-wise. You have any trouble seein' through it w/ the rearview? (Like especially dusk or dawn??) Just curious.

Looks pretty cool, especially with the babe showcasin' it.

Honestly I just got it in the mail yesterday, so I can't really comment on visibility through the tint at night. But my plastic rear window deflects and distorts headlights quite a bit at night and is already pretty much useless. I mostly use my side mirrors at night, so I don't really anticipate any issues.

I am going simple and subtle.
Tinted screen with PORSCHE on the bottom centered in Black. I've spoke to the maker and he says the black will be able to be seen but it would be a subtle touch.

It should create and subtle look that goes with my black theme.
I already made a tinted windscreen but the idea of a properly done screen has won me over.

I also toyed with the idea of doing a tinted screen with PORSCHE in red. I think it would look good but not flow with the car. And then the idea of etching TURBO crossed my mind but SLEEPER is more my style. (Can my car be called a sleeper??)
