The dealer did it for me as part of my deal. I payed about $750 under invoice for my car but my dealer is the best. I did have to trade back to him a 06 CTS that had a few serious issues like burning a quart of oil every 900 miles. Believe it or not I got $2500 in incentive cash towards a new GM vehicle and a few hundred short of Excellent Kelly Blue Book value for the CTS which was far from excellent at the time.
Bottom line is I believe the window tint is around $200 at Zeibart and probably less if you have your dealer do it as part of the deal because they would get a discount for volume service.
How/where did you get those fog lights? Did you get the RS package and modify? Or did you skip the RS and add them on? If so, is there an aftermarket switch for them on the interior or do they go on and off with the headlights?
Also, what are side markers? I'm curious what it would look like if they weren't blacked out.
Those are the add-on fog lamps I talked about in your other thread. They are very similar to the RS lamps, except the RS units have a chrome bezel where the add-ons do not. Styling is a matter of preference.
I'm planning on getting ~20% HP Supreme tint this spring on the rear windows (as the law permits here). Anyone else had this done, or recommend darker / lighter on a black car? I find from my last car, ~20% tint is still pretty easy to see OUT at night.
I've had 20% on all of my vehicles. Never had an issue with seeing at night or the police (IN law is 35%). My buddies' TA with 50% on the windshield and 20% everywhere else is dangerously difficult to see out of at night. Looks killer from the outside, though.
I would like to get my windows tinted but do not want to be ticketed for too much tint. I know the NY law on window tinting is 70% of the light must pass thru. Anyone know what level of tinting would work? I know nothing about this.
I just did a little research on this. A 30% means that the tint has 30% VLT (Visible Light Transmission) or that only 30% of the light goes through. The lower the number, the darker the tint.
He picked the gloss, GRXWERKS told me no one has ordered the matte black yet. I was going to order the matte black but he said if you Liquidip the rear (which I did) it will come out glossy, so it's best to just get 2 glossy
Cruzetroy, how dark does that tint appear on your car? Ohio laws with the 50% are stupid for the lack of a better term. I was pulled over on campus once with 50% on a white car and they actually tested the tint. I thought maybe the tint on a "somewhat" family sedan would be ignored by police.
Another question, how are the blackouts for the sidemarkers? Do the bulbs shine through pretty well at night? Your car makes me want to ditch my wanting a white Cruze and opt for the black one.

WOW! I love this, I normally don't like mods on cars in general but this I really like. I was thinking about tinting on my new black cruze but I was scared it would look too... thuggish? I guess.
But THIS, I love, especially the blacked out logo *_* In heaven.
I can load photos of my black cruze when i get it washed. I have a LTZ with 35% on the sides and 20% on the back also with black logos. This might help people compare on the level of tint they want. One important part to remember with tinting, other that the law, is the color of the interior. Dark interiors make the tint look darker. Also sunroofs will change the darkness A LOT. i have noticed a huge difference in darkness from sunroof cover open and cover closed.
so let me get this straight...the bowtie overlays by grafxwerks are actually new emblems instead of a wrap for the emblem?
you can take the emblem off the car with the diagram CUDA showed us??
someone please help and thank u haha
