    Welcome!
    About your tint... be careful. You wouldnt think it would be a problem. I got 15% with nat. tint came to like 12%. doesnt look dark at all. I got a ticket 20 MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! after i got them tinted!!! I wasnt even suppoessed to roll the windows down yet because it was just put on. $68 ticket... lame as hell. so i just cruise with the windows half-way down... its summer so its not bad

    Damn! That sucks to hear about the tint! That scares me a little bit...well, I guess if worse comes to worse Ill just fork out the money and bring it up to 32% or whatever. Thats lame either way, and an inconvience. Thanks for the tip though!

    Civic95 to answer your question, I am moving back to ATL due to the fact of I was born and raised in Marietta and forcefully taken away at the age of 16, and relocated to Denver. Don't get me wrong. Denver is an awesome city, in fact, it is very safe and very beautiful...and the women...WOW. But, ever since being forced to leave ATL and be in Denver I kind of got this everlasting negative impression of CO due to having to live here when I didnt want too. This unforunately has stayted with me over the years and has made me quite unhappy out here, despite all the cool people I have met, and the beautiful scerenry that surrounds me. Also, I hate cold. Like I said I was born and raised in Marietta, which is typically warm and humid. Denver is dry and cold. No humidity, and some nights -20 degrees. It sucks, and its cold. Also, the climate is unfavorable to performance cars which is my life. Cars typically lose about 30%-40% of their performance due to being 1 mile + in the air (my town is 6000 feet) and the air being so thin. Also, there are a ton of rocks and debris on the road which tear up bodies and windows. Its harsh. Also, I still have an incredible social network in GA despite being gone for 4 years, people I have know my entire life that I would enjoy living near again.

    Ya, so I hope that helps. If anybody ever is traveling or wants to travel to CO let me know, Ill tell you the hotspots and best things to do. Dont get me wrong, CO is beautiful, just not for me and not my style. Hope this helps answer the question civic95.

    Also, I know someone will probably bitch about how much I write or whatever, I apologize for writing so much, like I stated earlier I am an english major and always seem to have a lot to say.

    Thanks for all the feedback guys!
