What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

It sure does change the look. Those tints look pretty dark. Would you be ok living in Cali?

One of the few times I’ve been pulled over, supposedly, was for having dark tint on my other car, not the Z. It was on the interstate outside of Nashville, TN by local LEO. I’m fine for Texas, but he told me it would be an issue in TN. No ticket, but I was scratching my head wondering why he’d pull someone over with obviously out of state tags. From the way he was acting and looking around, I think he was looking for something else. Maybe he thought I was a senior citizen drug mule.

It's 30%. It looks darker in the picture than it really is. I think the majority of cars in SoCal are tinted, most darker than this.

Bought it a garage mate. The 76’ makes the 25’ feel like a Prius.

I didnt get the gloss yellow bc there wasn't a pic on the website so it would look off if they didn't match. The Nismo all have red no matter what color...even though they don't have yellow lol

The red cost me $25, the silver was $6...I'm trying not to have $100 in some mirror stripes

I have some yellow

Absolutely stunning...
