There is no comparison. The only positive that I have on the stang is that I can take three other people with me in it. I still love my stang though.

Ill post pics next week when I have time, but she is a beauty.

Welcome to the club.

You get a very short reprieve from pics, but the abuse will escalate

Your car is sweet! I went with the base wheels on mine. What darkness of tint did you go with? Im still getting used to the low visibility of the back window, and Im afraid to go too dark.

I went with 35% on the sides and 15% on the back. I've very pleased with it. Although I haven't driven at night yet, so not sure how I'm going to like the back glass being that dark. It's fine in daytime driving. I also have the glass top, so that lets in more light than the solid roof.
