Yup, they give a discount. It was only 5% but beggers can't be choosy. I had to email them though and they said to put 9000RPM in the discount block.

Shay-The tint, is it a specific kind of tint? One of the tint kit makers, diyhut said they didn't recommend tinting of plastic. What kind did you use?

I used the Gila (sp?) stuff you can get at AutoZone or Pep Boys. Shay did a good job of explaining how it goes on considering his wife did his for him. Us single guys have to do that kind of stuff ourselves! I put it on my rear window a couple of times. Looked great, and helped protect the plastic from scratches! Take your time with it though.

See Ya',
Bryan

I can't remember if Shay or I mentioned it before, but the tint is the fairly thick static-cling kind. Not the paper-thin glue type.

OOOH, that's really good to know. I'm an idiot and would have bought the wrong stuff. Yesterday I bought some discounted mozzarella cheese and one of the bags was completely molded. Had to just throw it away. Didn't feel like wasting the gas.

You're kidding, right? That was St. Patty's Day mozzarella cheese! That stuff is worth a fortune! I can't believe you threw it away!

After two weeks of waiting for the dealership and the place installing the top to get coordinated and order the part, I take my car in tomorrow. The part is still not in, but they said it'll be there and I will have my S back Friday afternoon. Keeping my fingers crossed. LOL
