Here is a pic of the front of my 89 to show the strip. The flash really makes it look dirty. It was caught out in the rain when I was changing the springs on the '06, so those are mostly water spots.
The circle shows how the tint runs along the bottom of the rear view mirror, and the arrow shows how low you are ALLOWED to have the tint (we all have a mark showing how low you can tint on the windshield). The "brownish" part of the tint is the factory tint (which you don't see, but again, the flash really lights everything up and brings out stuff you don't normally see - normally the strip all looks like the rest of the 20% tint).

Well, even though Royce lost the fight, I still believe in the system 100%. Chris is a 3rd year student at the Gracie Academy and I've seen him take out boys taller and weighing 30 to 40lbs more than his weight (of 70lbs).
No felt for the tint???
Who has the discipline of cleaning out the wiper strip after exposure to dust (or when we think it got exposed to it), not to mention keep it conditioned? Not me, in time I'll get lazy for sure.
Seriously Susan, I hope the tint remains scratch free forever.
Daryl, how many cycles (approx) before you developed scratches on your tint?
I think you can have the front windshield tint strip in CA, I've seen several cars/trucks running around with it.

We watched the fight last night at our friends' house. First time I've ever seen UFC - way different from boxing.
Yes, Master. Anything else for you, sir?

Yes, I agree, needs to be lowered. How much do the springs cost? It isn't really in the budget right now. We'll be in the new house in 4-6 weeks so we have to dedicate all of our financial resources to that for now....

Any shade of tint looks like it belongs on TR. And yes, it looks TR to me!

Never said it didn't work, just MMA has progressed to the point that BJJ is no longer as dominant as it used to be.
I agree. But, against the regular guy, GJJ is the most humane way to persuade an attacker into changing their mind.
Not many, 20 times maybe. I don't roll my windows down much, I love that A/C
Susan, this was prior to him installing the felt. Just keep an eye on it, sis.

Maybe a paint & body shop can blend it in with some touch up paint.

Looks like there is more to it than just that chip. Some scratches , etc.
The tint looks awsome Susan.

At speed, the rock hits the hood, deflects upwards and down your back. Incredible.
