Thanks! I wish I could be a professional, but I'm just an amatuer trying to get better. More of a hobby than anything.

Euro corner lights and M5 mirrors are so expensive! I rather do performance mods now!

It's vice versa. 35% on the sides (4 doors) and 20% on the rear windshield. I did it dark in the rear because it's the biggest window which brings in the most light. If i did 35% on the rear, my 35% on the side would look like 50%!

35% is perfect imo. Not too dark during the day, but at night, you can't really see in. The darkness really depends on the angle. The front windshield allows a lot of light to get in.

And get M166.
If you want wallpaper size pictures, pm me the pic you like and the size of your screen resolution.
I knew you have 35 sides & 20 rear; I was asking nicke60gre about his. Maybe he has it listed wrong in his signature, but he shows it the other way around which seems unusual.

We'll see what I do for the wheels. It's a tough choice. I'll probably do the 166's, but 167's look great and I like 125's as well. The weather is getting warmer and I don't have a set for summer setup yet, so I have to do something in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks for the offer on wallpaper photos, but I switch it out every few days anyway.

Hot stuff Mike!

The ///M6 rims are really growing on me, I really need to check my pricing on them. Are you coming up for our March 31st meet?
