Does anyone think that is a good idea to get some tinted windows done in HK. Have read some magazine that said the windows visibility have to be at least 75%. Don't know what's that like?

I personally find nothing wrong with tinted windows, it really blocks out the sun and keep the car cool, that's why I have it on all the cars that I drive in Canada but in HK the car doesn't really get too hot because we park indoor most of the time, but just for the looks.

Hey AhJai

Didn't realize that we basically have the same car except I am missing AS , bi-xenon , 18" wheels , comfort seats , side sunblinds , chrome grills , sports steering wheel and most importantly 156hp .

But very good choice of colour (both body and interior) I must say

I guess it all depends on their mood that day and if they've written up enough "quotas" for the month....haha. Some movie stars hv them on their vans, I never hear they get tickets :thumbsdown: I suppose tinting the two rear and back windows are ok cuz it'll be the same as having the elec blinds up. But the front two and windshield I'd rather leave them alone.

I never tint the front anyways is not allow even in Canada. But would be something different as other E60 doesn't have tints , but not too popular at road blocks :thumbsdown:

gf366 said the Remus tailpipe cost $5000 right? But I brought this book and they have the picture of the Remus pipe but it doesn't look much different from the stock pipe. Maybe that's why they are charging $5000 for it.
