    this color tint is growing on me, and as shiny as your car is it would prolly look ok,

        Hey Rodney, your car is looking good. Have you lowered it? I like the color you chose.

          be advised that it is not tint. it's a colored film. give it a year or so, and it will look like crap. not mention that it offers no heat rejection. the manager of the shop in town that i go to tried doing it for 6 months, and they decided that the materials weren't high enough quality yet, and it wasn't worth it.

            well if you buy colored film from walmart or pepboys, i cant say how it will hold up.
            my last truck i had teal green tribal tint, my wife has yellow tribal tint, and that guy with orange on the speed. we got ours from my bud mike covin in anaheim california(www.mikestintshop.com).had the green for 3 years,my current tint for 2 years,my wifes for a year and a half, and the guy with the orange almost a year now. we have never had a problem with fading, bubbling, wearing, tearing or anything with it.

              No, I have not lowered it yet. I got my CoverKing Seat Covers yesterday although. I am not sure if I am going to lower it just yet because I drive it to work everyday. My 94 Blazer which is my next project is get fixed. Once it's ready I will drop my Mazda.

              I am still trying to decide on the customizing of my trunk. Any ideas?

                Get a videogame system or retractable vynil deck for your trunk. And you can lower it and still drive it to work, not every car looks good with a huge drop. Otherwise - sweet ride.

                  honestly.. the coolest thing you can have in your trunk is some serious robotics... just get everything in there to adjust and move around when you open the lid...
                  have your amp-rack fold out and move around.. have your subs re-angle themselves... anything like that would be impressive.

                    ive got a metallic blue tint on my pro. i love it. its not to dark, but its very reflective. its cost 240, but worth every penny. totally scratch resistant (a plus if youve got dogs), and has a lifetime warranty. it keeps my car a lot cooler in the summer than black tint ever did. also, very nice since only three or four other people in cda have the same tint.

                      Not a bad idea... but instead of it being powered, make it simple mechanics = as you open the trunk, there'd be a set of joints welded onto the trunk hinge, and it would put other hinges, joints, and pulleys into motion which have speakers, sub and amp attached to them... and the whole construction could be chrome, or at least stainless steel to match your car.

                      this would be rather complicated but very genius

                            Is there somewhere you can buy the stuff that does all of this? Where would I start with this installation?

                            Thanks
