I have Llumar ATR 20. I'm pretty happy with it, although it is not as dark as I'd like. If I could do it again I'd go with their ATR 15 instead. It's a metallized film, but it doesn't disrupt my electronics. I'm considering putting their Air 80 on my windshield.

Formula 1 is made by Llumar, so I'd have no problem trusting their quality. I'd do their comfort 15 or comfort 30, depending on what color your car is. It's basically the same thing as the ATR line that I have, but with a different name.

Edit: Today I put on a CravenSpeed 2" antenna and debadged my trunk.

I just moved to Las Vegas. 20% is not dark enough out here.

With satin white I'd probably go with 15% or 5%. White cars look good with black windows. My car is dark grey metallic, so I wanted a grey tint instead of a solid black window like 5% will give you.

Word of warning: 5% is fucking dark. You get used to it, but still. Visibility can be rough sometimes. I had a wrx with 5% and a 4runner with 3%. It looks great on the right colors.

Well i was thinking 10% on rear and rear sides and then front side 15% and windshield visor 10 also. Would this look good? And what film should i use? Thanks a lot!

I've never liked mixing tint levels on rear and front windows. I don't think it looks right. F1 doesn't make a 10% tint, so I'd probably just do 15% all the way around. I would choose the comfort (F1) or ATR (Llumar) line, unless you just really want ceramic tint. I'm not a fan of the windshield strip, but then too I'm 6'5". I look through that part of the windshield.

Here are the product spec sheets for Formula 1 and Llumar. They're in PDF format, from their respective companies' pages.

Enkei PF01, 17x7.5, +38 with Michelin PSS 225/45 and stock suspension/no camber adjustment.

Wow those look great! I'm surprised how good it looks even with the stock suspension!

Unfortunately hit a snag during install of skirts and front lip today. 1. bumper too low for ramps n didn't wanna dig out jackstands etc. 2. When I was getting skirts ready hardware wasn't right, 1 of the mounting brackets came with unthreaded holes so prob gotta wait a whole wk b4 the seller sends me new ones. WTF
