    Default Spring Fever



    The weather is trying to break despite an inch of snow Saturday. Looking at tint options for the M-Sport. Anyone have any suggestions? Shade and type of tint?

    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks RT...what kind of tint should she wear? Last year they passed a new Illinois tint law that allows 30-35% all around, except the windshield of course.

    The fashion police said your car colour would look REALLY good with a light bronze tint !!!!

    I am not sure re: tint. I am not super familiar with how each % affects the look of the glass.

    Bronze huh? Hmmm, never gave it a thought....I was thinking about charcoals and the like....the Cosmos Schwartz Mettallic looks almost deep, deep, blue in the direct sun and looks like a turd on a cloudy day. =) But I never gave bronze a thought. It would be different that's for sure.

    Be sure and give Deb a big hug for me, ok Uncle Phil??? =)

    I sold it a couple years ago Mitch. But realizing there was something missing, I started looking for something to replace it and came across this M-Sport in the St. Louis area, so my son and I took a Saturday trip to take a look and lo and behold, we brought 'er home...

    The M5 went to another enthusiast in the Springfield Illinois area.
