Not to be a dick or anything, but why not just get a SHO? Anywho, it looks to be pretty clean and definitely seems like you're putting a lot of work into it.
 
we have an sho actually, and my brother has had em in the past.
basically this is my 1st car. had it since 52k back in june 03. and others just dont "feel" the same... i mean. in reality, its like asking somebody dropping a v8 into a 4cyl mustang why they didnt go out and buy a v8 stang to start..
part of it all is the journey. plus the other motor/trans i got for free from my brother.
 
yeah, they are tinted. not as dark as they look. definatly visible at day or night. i put 3 light coats. then wetsanded and glossed over.
