i think it's TS, im not sure, but you should have a little mark on your windshield that looks something like a capital T with the letters TS printed above it. It should be on either the upper right or upper left corner of your windshield. It basically marks how far down your windshield you can tint. Should be about three inches or so below the top.

I personally don't like the tinted windows unless they came from the factory. The tint is destined to get scratched and bubble and come off. Then you've got a damn mess.
That GTS front end looks very good...not something you see every day!
We of course will require UPDATES.

Its hotter in Riverside, too. We are only about 20 miles from the ocean (but Pendleton is in the way), so its not as bad as it is further inland. It is definitely hotter than Poway up here, though.

It will probably be quite a while before I actually buy the piece but I want to plan things out as well as I can before doing them. I will be sure to make one of those massive DIY-novel threads when the time comes.

I'm thinking about a bumperette delete, for the front and back. Will the bumpers need to be repainted? how exactly are they taken off.. Just asking before I take them off, have it look like **** and then can't get them back on. Also I plan on getting bumperplugs to cover the holes

how exactly are they removed? I don't want to force them off incase I don't like the look, I'd still want to be able to re-install them.

For the bumperette delete there are four nubs that need to be drilled/grinded off on the front. There's also the large rectangular slots where the bolts for the bumperette go through. I don't think you could do it with only the bumper plug things. The rear has either one or two, I forget, rectangular slots for each bumperette. I had the holes on my front bumper welded up, then I repainted.

here's my bumper-pad delete front end:
I think it looks fine, especially when its pushed in like mine is. Rather than buying a whole new front bumper cover, I'd rather spend the money on doing some work to the rear bumper, like getting a euro rear bumper (and I just did)
