Got my 437's on, now just need a drop

Anyone know if we can get the little mudflaps like you can get for the M cars or is it the huge factory jobs only?

Hiking and some mountain photography.

Here's a couple of pics after a drive through the forest yesterday

Brotis · 06-10-2019, 08:22 PM

Life seems to take me away from this beauty a lot, but finally got her tinted. Spectra Photosync by Prestige Film Technologies. 45 front, 30 back (front windshield still untinted). It was recommended to me that I get 30 all around, but I ignorantly refused and went a tad lighter on the front. In retrospect, I should have followed the professional's advice.
For those of you looking at Photosync for your next tinting, I can tell you that it's a very beautiful tint that needs getting used to, as it is about 5 mils in thickness (over double the thickness of most other tints). If you're expecting complete solar energy rejection, be mindful that it will not prevent the heat from getting in; is does make a noticeable difference while you're driving, but if you let her sit out in the sun for a couple hours, the interior is still going to be quite hot (note: this may change after I tint the front windshield).
But I gotta say, the tint makes her looks sexy

Edit: the first 3 photos are when I dropped her off before the tint. The next 2 photos are immediately after the tint (still wet). The last photo is a few days afterward when everything has dried and settled.

I don't rely solely on the tint, good as the ceramic stuff is. I try to park in the shade whenever I can, and put up a front sunshade (and a rear if the car will sit for a while).

You're right, though, that the stuff makes a difference when driving. Before the tint, I could feel the spring sun, which here is almost as strong as summer sun in civilized climes, on my skin; not so much since the tint.

And your dark blue over cream is a great color combo.

@Wolfus Aurelius

What are you using for a rear shade? Generic or F30 custom cut?

If all else fails, add a vibrant ultra-quiet res and call it a day. Or could put an aftermarket muffler in place of the stock one.

Late response, but can you send me a video with the new res on? I saw a video on youtube of a guy with 2 resonators (one on each side after the Y pipe) but i cant seem to find it

I'd agree with the 8sp comment. I have to drive in auto-manual all the time to avoid drone / get the quietest cruising note.
