That's pretty crazy. I would be afraid to lean against it because I would put a smudge on it and then have to shine it up again.
From what I remember Petos bought the VX like that (I think it had a MASSIVE stereo system in it before he got it) and as you can see in some of the pictures the mirror finish is peeling off, or at least the clear coat is. Petos sold the VX before he headed back across the pond and he checks in every now and then so maybe he'll speak up about the finish.

MSHardeman--- Yes, PETOS (2nd owner) bought his VX already customized that way by the previous owner. The previous and original owner-customizer went by the Vehicross.Info "handle" name: RICKSTER.Originally Posted by MSHardeman
Rick (or Rickster) is a professional automotive customizer and made many custom mod's to his VX including special chameleon painted cladding and shaved door handles. In early June 2008, PETOS (a native from Russia who was temporarily living/going to school in the USA), was hurting for money and sold the customized VX before returning back to Russia. Ironically; the new 3rd owner lived in Russia too, and had RICKSTER's customized VX shipped over to Russia (never to be heard from again). For additional information, do a forum "search" for: RICKSTER

Ah I am not too worried about the local laws of tint. Its 35% on the front and 25% the rest. I did 5% all around.

Does anyone have those tints that "fade" from reflective silver to the regular tint black on their VX?
As cheesy as it looks on some cars, I think it would be perfect for the VX. Anyone have a picture? I am currently heavily tinted, but would consider redoing them since the one on the driver's window got scratched up at the shop once.
