Hey designDetroit:

Looks great

Did you tint your front windshield?

Awesome shots of the car, I am a Detroit guy now in FL and I got my new CTS this weekend. Trying to upload some photos now. Just switched out the fog lights for the Hoen Xenomatches...

Yesss, the windshield is tinted... It is hard to find the right people to do it, and is very illegal but the look is outstanding!! Be fore warned, night driving is a bit tricky if you live outside of the city! Ha! I have the Hoen Foglamp bulbs and LED License Plate bulbs, nice choice.

Thank you for the complements on the photos, I've had the ride since June, and just managed to get a few decent shots the other day, found a coal yard, which popped the silver (amazing), but dirty... And Detroit's produce terminal was a great urban backdrop.

I'm waiting on the H&R springs to lower it, and thinking about re-painting the wheels to a darker argent color, stay tuned. -Cheers.

The wife and I just picked up our '09 last week and we absolutely love it :-)
Love the new Radiant Silver color... oh and I used Zaino wax on the weekend before I snapped these ;-) That stuff is incredible!

Love driving by the 3-series beamers and gettin head turns!
BTW, nothing wrong with beamers, but we all got a little something on em now

Awesome picture Radbag! I took some high-res shots a bit ago as well

The lines in and out this car are viciously beautiful.

[radbag]

good job dahlia!

question - your seats...are those aftermarket?

[radbag]

btw - and not to piss on the parade of beautiful shots here...i thought i posted this but about 2-3 months after i'd taken delivery, i hit a frikkin dear at 30-35 mph leaving my street...it's heavily wooded and the bastid bounded out from nowhere...i'm pretty good at spottin them...this one came up from my right rear side and bolted in front...i locked em up and gave the wheel a stiff counter clockwise shiver...still hit it...the deer flew about 12-15 yards and scampered off dragging it's back side...i was so pissed i flipped work off that day and went straight to the mechanic.

that's why i posted that HID shot...sorta a before and after thing i was going for...if you look close, you can still see the deer hair where the fender meets the front panel...bastid....and excuse the quality of the shots...taken from my celly.

Now THATS a story!!! I don't know what its like to hit anything in a car, but I bet its nerveracking. Especially when its the CTS, our pride and joys!!

The seats are the original seats. I had Thorntons, an auto uphulstery shop we use, do headliner, door inserts, and perfortated seat inserts. He recommended doing the shoulders with the crest. I feels and looks sooooo good.

Its a Black Cherry CTS4. I've had it 3 days now and I love it. Took a long drive yesterday to the mountains, it handles very nicely on the curves. I've driven a truck for the past 20 years so this is a real treat.

I Have the exact same car in North Andover, MA. I love the way it seems as if it is two distinct colors if viewed in the sunlight or the shade. Great the way the flake shows through in the sunlight.

Hey Tony,

Nice to see another Pats fan here!

Yeah, I know what you mean about the color, I love it. I have had more people tell me that my car is black

Hi Guys. I just picked her up last Friday. I haven't taken any good pictures yet. It has been nasty out the past few days. These pictures I took are in the garage. Sorry they are pretty poor. Bad lighting and tight. I just want to see what you guys think of the pinstripe? I did not know it had one until I picked her up. I do not know how I feel about it either. It will probably grow on me I think / hope? Let me know what you think? The stripe is on the trunk also it goes to the crest on each side. again sorry for the bad quality and this is my first time posting pictures. I hope I did it right. Thanks

Only you can decide if you like the pinstripe. Although I wouldn't pay extra for a pinstripe (personal opinion), I have seen some that were nice enough that I wouldn't remove.

I owned a car about 10 years ago that came with a pinstripe and after I owned the car for a while it grew on me. I really enjoyed the subtle way it allowed me to confirm it was my car just by looking at the exterior.

P.S.- looking at your pictures again, the pinstripe looks pretty good. However, I would want to see the car at a distance (in daylight) as I suspect the overall look will blend together nicely.
