Great to see another Nitrate E2 R8, even better in Adelaide What do you think of the midnight express tinting? I've got mine booked in for next Monday and not sure whether I want to go darker.

Would have liked to gone darker but not a fan of a canary .

lol I can relate to that one, been there once and would rather not go through it again considering the tint was only on the car 2 weeks but the car after that not a single problem so I'm not sure.

They certainly are nice cars though, I hope your taking lots of notice of the 'running-in' period I'm trying my arse off but launch control is getting too tempting.

I know what you mean on the tint , a guy at work has a black VE with dark as tint that looks wicked.

Mine has 4K on it now ,plus its an auto, but HSV have got the calibration perfect in my opinion in manual mode it changes instantly either up or down , certainly a lot different to the black clubby i had.

Being black as well it certainly makes them looker darker.

There is a downside to the dark windows, reversing or general visibility at night I find is a bit of a pain from previous experiences.

I will have to go for a spin sometime, I have never thought much of the calibration that Holden used but have heard numerous times HSV do an awesome job in the VE.
