Yea, it really looks good with the IB! If you want it to sound a little better without spending a fortune stick a megan racing cat back exhaust on it too.

The only thing I didn't like about the tinting is how it looks on the rear window at the top. The dots at the top created some odd looking uneven bright spots.

Also, I need to put front clear bra. Lots of vicious rocks in Utah...

I am very happy with the stock exhaust so far :-)

There is a way around the dots at the top problem, had it on my old 335 coupe. Here is the trick - The back window is done in two stages. The guy who did my M here in Houston did the bottom section of the back window under the dotted part first, waited a few days for it to dry, then applied the top strip over the dots. He does all the dealer tints here but I dealt with him directly, less expensive. Should of got him to do the 335 coupe too when I had it but wasn't aware at the time... ;-)

Yeah, it was too late for my 335...Then I read about the two part tinting. I will look into this. Thanks for the advice!
