Default Restored Photos! Window tint on my old '00 S2000. . .

When PhotoPoint went away a few weeks back, I thought I lost all my pictures. . .however, today I came about three 3 hard disks and when I popped them in to see what they had, I was shocked and amazed to see pictures of my old S2000!

So here's some of the pics of when I had the windows tinted along with the rear "static-cling" tint. ANd I have to tell you that the rear window tint for the pastic was fantastic! I never had any problems with it and it looked great. When I traded the car, I left it on. . .I'm sure the new owner will like it!

At any rate, here are some pics. . .sorry for the quality, this was before I had my nifty little digital cam!




I really miss my old baby. . . I wish I had the means to buy her back!

Sorry to hear about the buyers remorse. I have an MY01 in your old color combo and I love it. (Don't mean to rub salt in the wounds) You mentioned a static cling tint for the rear window, can you give some detail as to the maker and were you bought it from. I would like to tint out my car but my tinter said he can't do the rear window. i would be interested in picking some up.

Thanks

i have a sebring already tinted course, it's tinted with hardtop, but you'll get the idea... if someone wants, i might be tempted to take a picture of it since it's been done.

Have any of you guys had the tint start to peel, a friend of mine has a limo tint all around on his rx-7 and its peeling at the top of the window on the drivers side and passenger side it doesn't look very good imo i have always thought that tinted windows on a car looked ghetto.

I have a pattern and some pre-cut static cling for the S.
It has been on my car for about 14 months and the top has been down dozens of times without any problems with the tint coming off. Not only does it look better, but it also protects the plastic from being scratched and keeps the crease from causing such a distorted view looking out from inside. You can email me if you want more information.
