I wish my interior shots were like this

I guess i have to try and replicate this with someone's car. Anyone want to volunteer?

I volunteer. Please, I need good pictures of my trim.

A little bit of both, not barfing though. Nausea, itchy throat, and sinus problems.

LOLrance · 10-02-2007, 01:15 PM

Hope you feel better John.

But yea, as far as the interior shot goes, i know he has atleast 2 flashes in that shot. How big they are, i really dunno. I dont think i can come close to replicating it unless i have ATLEAST 1 flash. Maybe i'll test it out on my own car later.

Greetings, all!

Newbie here. Picked up my new '07 Black Sapphire/Coral 335i Convertible Saturday afternoon and it's exceeded most if not all of my expectations. Not sure how much modding I'll be doing since I'm leasing. Probably just tint and wheels/tires and call it a day.

Can anyone recommend a great tint shop in the LA area? Also, does ceramic tint mess with CA signals? I did a search but could not find anything.

Thanks, and I look forward to reading every post in this forum if I can find the time.

Welcome!!!
Great looking car!

As for Tint shops...I used song's Tint masters down on Washington/Arlington.
They specialize in the Huper Optik line of Ceramic films and also use madico for their non ceramic. I personally feel that the ceramic did affect my CA reception somewhat, but for some odd reason, my wife seems to be able to use the CA without a hitch, so take it for what it's worth

.

OC 335i has the Pinnacle F1 ceramic tint which was put on down in Orange County. There were no known CA issues with his car as far as I know.

hope this helps

Bluesummer · 10-02-2007, 02:26 PM

Ha thanks! I get to look at it from my living room a few feet away whenever I'm not driving her...

car cover is on order - it's a dust magnet. my girlfriend's a little worried that it'll be a chick magnet, too.
