I think it will look good with charcoal tint. I wouldn't do mirror tint.

Thanks. I wasn't thinking mirrored, I'd do charcoal, I'm just not sure how it would look. Any chance you got a pic VB, so I can see what it looks like?

i think i would leave it untinted. But if you one day you change to a Black top inside of the white then i definitely get the Tinted black windows.

Nice VB, thanks. And thanks Zipp for the tweaked pic. I like the tint, not quite that dark, but I think I'm going to do it lighter.

I had planned to change the top when I bought it, but after driving it around, I decided I like the top. Partially, its because I've only ever seen one other mustang with a white top, and it was a blue 04 GT, so mine stands out, plus I think the white makes it look classier, without making it look like a "chick car". And I plan on adding some black details to the exterior, by getting some black bumper inserts, and blacking out the ponies on the rims.

Anytime, kat. I tried to do it lighter, but I had a heavy trigger finger. lol I figured you would get the general idea and be able to go from there.

Yeah, I just wasn't sure how it would look, being a convertible, but I think it works.

I think it looks good with his "paint" tinted windows. I need to get mine done as well. especially before summer comes along.
